    After enjoying breakfast at your hotel, our guide and driver will pick you up around 30–45 minutes before the tour begins at 09:30 AM. You’ll join a small group for a day of exploring the ancient wonders of Angkor.

    Your journey starts at the majestic Angkor Thom complex, where you’ll walk through towering gates and explore the enchanting Bayon Temple, known for its smiling stone faces. Next, venture into the atmospheric ruins of Ta Prohm Temple, famously featured in Tomb Raider, where nature and architecture intertwine.

    The adventure continues at Angkor Wat, the largest religious monument in the world and a masterpiece of Khmer architecture. As the day winds down, you’ll climb Phnom Bakheng Hill for a breathtaking panoramic sunset view over the jungle and temple spires.

    Due to visitor limits at Phnom Bakheng (only 300 people allowed at the top at once), this itinerary includes fewer temples to give you ample time to soak in each iconic site.

    After sunset (around 06:30 PM), you’ll head back to town. Meals are on your own. Enjoy a relaxing night at your hotel.

      Your morning begins with a short drive to Roluos Market, where local villagers gather to sell their fresh vegetables, herbs, and homemade goods.

A brief visit to a nearby pagoda adds a spiritual touch to the journey, offering a glimpse into the religious practices that shape daily life in the countryside.

      From there, your guide will lead you to the edge of Tonlé Sap Lake, where you’ll board a boat to visit one of the region’s most unique communities, the floating village. The village is made up of houses perched on towering stilts, rising 8 to 10 meters above the ground to adapt to the seasonal rise and fall of the water. As the boat glides through the canals, you’ll pass by homes, schools, farms, and even a floating hospital. Life here may seem challenging, but the smiles of the locals speak volumes about their strength and resilience.

      Once the cruise comes to an end, the driver will bring you back to your hotel. The rest of the afternoon is free for you to unwind, explore on your own, or simply soak in the calm atmosphere of Siem Reap.

                    We had a two week family trip in April 2024 to Vietnam and Cambodia. It was a magical holiday full of special memories and exciting experiences. I can’t speak highly enough about the service we had..

                    I stumbled onto Seni World travel while looking for a holiday in Vietnam. I sent a mail and was amazed at the prompt reply i got from one of their representatives. We were in constant contact on WhatsApp until we found the best package for us. Seni did all from booking hotels, arranging local flights to arranging our Visas. All tours and transport were arranged with absolutely no problems. If you ever want to see Vietnam, do make use of this Tour operator.
