2 Day - Angkor Wat - Preah Vihear Tour

This fantastic 2 day tour will take you on a wonderful journey to visit the most magnificent and beautiful temples Cambodia has to offer.

Day 1: Angkor Wat Tour

Start the day early to enjoy the sunrise at Angor Wat, which is an amazing experience. After that spend the full morning to explore this magical and beautiful Temple City, which was finished in the early 12th Century by King Suryavarman II. As you roam through the corridors and visit each tier you will get an understanding of the massive effort that was put in to build the temple and you feel close to what life would have been like when the Khmer Empire was at its peak.
In the afternoon visit the ancient 12th century capital Angkor Thom and experience the beauty and mystery of this temple complex. You will see the Bayon Temple (Temple of Smiles), The South Gate, The Royal Enclosure and visit Ta Phrom, the temple with the gigantic tree roots on the structure. Dinner will be back in Siem Reap and overnight at your hotel.

Day 2: Preah Vihear Tour

Today starts at 7.00am, we will be travelling towards the border between Cambodia and Thailand in the north. We will travel through Anlong Veng, which was the last stronghold of the Khmer Rouge and also the place where Pol Pot was convicted for ‘crimes against the Cambodian people’ and where he and Ta Mok (Brother Number Four) were buried.
After lunch at Sra Em we will spend the afternoon exploring the beautiful Preah Vihear Temple. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is perched on the edge of a giant cliff in the spectacular Dongrek Mountains. The scenery and views are amazing and add to the beauty and majesty of the temple. You will have plenty of time to learn about the history of the temple, the area and the recent border disputes and take some quiet moments to really take in the views and appreciate being in such a wonderful place.
In the late afternoon we will travel back through stunning mountain scenery on our way to Siem Reap.
