DAY 1: ARRIVE SIEM REAP
Upon arrival in Siem Reap, your guide will meet and transfer you to the hotel. Early check in is subject to availability. Check in time: 14:00 hrs. In the afternoon, start exploring the stunning temples by tuk-tuk. Start with a visit to one of the wonders of the modern world, the intricately carved Khmer ruins at Angkor Wat. The temple still displays hundreds of fine carvings of Apsara and Hindu mythology in its bas relief. Stroll around the massive hallways and discover small shrines still in use today by the local people. Transfer back to your hotel late afternoon. Overnight in Siem Reap
DAY 2: SIEM REAP
Head to the ancient Royal city of Angkor Thom with its centre piece, the Bayon temple. At first glance, it may seem like a shapeless mass of stone, but further scrutiny reveals towers with enigmatic faces of former King Jayavarman VII looking into every direction. Continue your exploration with a visit to the Terrace of the Elephants, which served as a platform from where the King could welcome back his victorious army. Attached is the Terrace of the Leper King which holds detailed carvings winding along a narrow passage way that leads to the Baphuon complex. Head back to Siem Reap to rest and to enjoy lunch on your own before continuing to Ta Prohm. This beautiful temple is overgrown with fig trees, giving a haunting yet exotic atmosphere. The magnificent roots of the trees have merged over the centuries with the temple’s huge stone blocks, emphasizing a ‘forgotten city’ feeling. In the late afternoon, visit Artisans d’Angkor, an organization focusing on training unschooled rural youth in traditional handicraft skills. Ancient techniques are still practiced here such as wood and stone carving, lacquering, gilding and silk painting. Bid farewell to the artisans and return to your hotel. Overnight in Siem Reap (Breakfast)
DAY 3: SIEM REAP
This morning, transfer approximately one hour to the floating village of Kampong Khleang, one of the largest settlements on the Tonle Sap Lake. Living on water is an art the Khmer people have mastered over the course of time. Board a local boat and visit a floating house to observe the local customs - opportunity to talk with your hosts about the differences they face living on the water. Continue exploring the small island, which is home to a bustling market, a pagoda, a school and a health centre before returning to Siem Reap. Enjoy a rest and depart in the afternoon for the jewel of Khmer art, Banteay Srei temple. Translating to “The Citadel of the Women”, this red sand-stone temple is one of Angkor’s most significant structures as its walls are decorated with elaborate carvings and in an amazing state of preservation. Much of the Angkor civilization can be learned here by studying the remarkable carvings. Overnight in Siem Reap (Breakfast)
DAY 4: SIEM REAP
The day can be spent at your leisure until transfer to the airport for your onward flight. Check out time: 12:00 noon. End of services (Breakfast)
