4 days / 3 nights
Day 1: Arrive Siem Reap
Arrive this evening in Siem Reap, your base for
visiting the fabulous ancient sites of Angkor, one
of the wonders of the world. The grandeur of this
bygone civilization is truly astounding. Enjoy a
three-night stay in Siem Reap as you take the
opportunity to explore nearby ruins.
Day 2: Angkor Wat Excursion
Your exploration of this mysterious region begins
with the intricately carved Khmer ruins at Angkor
Wat and surrounding sites, one of the world’s most
impressive ruins. The Khmer civilization constructed
the temples between the 9th and 13th centuries.
Strolling through the massive hallways of this
ancient site, you will find many small shrines still
in use by the local people. Picturesque Ta Prohm
remains overgrown, presenting oddly haunting and
exotic scenes. Visit various ruin sites of these
ancient stone masterpieces—mute testimony to the
once-mighty Khmer civilization. View Angkor Wat at
sunset from Phnom Bakheng. (B)
Day 3: Angkor Thom Excursion
See Angkor Thom, or “Great City,” which, having
nearly disappeared into the jungle, is in some ways
even more spectacular than colossal Angkor Wat. Your
day includes a boat ride on Tonle Sap. (B)
Day 4: Siem Reap / Home
Depart for home today, taking along memories of a
most enchanting trip. (B)
