Itinerary

Your guide will explain the country’s conflicts, including the civil war and Khmer Rouge era, with real stories from survivors and veterans. A moving and educational start to the tour.
Visit one of Siem Reap’s lesser-known but powerful memorial sites. Wat Thmei is a peaceful Buddhist temple that houses a stupa filled with the remains of victims from the Khmer Rouge regime. Here, your guide will share insight into Cambodia’s tragic past and the resilience of its people.
Dive into Cambodia’s ancient civilization through impressive galleries showcasing Angkorian artifacts, statues, and royal treasures. The museum provides valuable context to Angkor Wat and Khmer history, making it a must-visit before or after exploring the temples.

About Siem Reap
Siem Reap is the riverside town beside Angkor, Cambodia's vast complex of Khmer temples, with night markets, river walks and a relaxed centre.
Angkor Wat, often called the largest religious monument in the world, rises above its moat in a silhouette of lotus-bud towers that is breathtaking at sunrise. Nearby, the walled city of Angkor Thom holds the Bayon, with its more than two hundred serene stone faces, the Terrace of the Elephants and the Baphuon, while Ta Prohm is gripped by the roots of giant silk-cotton and strangler fig trees.
Top-ranked sights in Siem Reap: Angkor Thom, Tonlé Sap, Kampong Phluk.
