Package overview
This is our most complete Siem Reap-only itinerary: four nights from one fixed hotel, with three distinct full days covering the classic Angkor circuit, a Tonle Sap floating-village boat trip and city tour, and a Phnom Kulen mountain excursion — three different sides of the region rather than temples alone.
It suits clients who have decided Siem Reap is the priority for this trip and would rather go deep on one base than split nights with Phnom Penh; agents can pair it with a separate Phnom Penh product later if the client wants the capital on a future visit.
Trip highlights
- Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom, Bayon and Ta Prohm with a Pre Rup sunset
- Tonle Sap floating village by private boat
- Les Artisans d'Angkor stone- and wood-carving workshop
- King's Residence shrine and Old Market shopping
- Phnom Kulen — River of a Thousand Lingas and waterfall
- Banteay Srey village palm sugar-making visit
Day-by-day itinerary
Day 1: Arrival in Siem Reap, city tour
Arrival in Siem Reap and transfer to the hotel, with a short city orientation to follow — enough to get a first sense of the riverside area and Old Market before the three full excursion days begin. The evening is free.
Day 2: Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom and Ta Prohm circuit
The circuit opens at Angkor Wat, built in the early 12th century for King Suryavarman II, then continues into Angkor Thom, the Khmer empire's fortified last capital, entered through the South Gate to reach Bayon Temple and its carved stone faces.
From the Terrace of the Elephants and the Terrace of the Leper King, the route heads to Ta Prohm, still tangled in banyan tree roots and recognisable from the Tomb Raider film, before the day closes with sunset at Pre Rup temple.
Day 3: Tonle Sap floating village and Siem Reap city tour
A private boat from Chong Khneas takes the group onto Tonle Sap, Southeast Asia's largest freshwater lake, to see a floating village where houses, a school, a pagoda and a small crocodile farm all sit on the water. Les Artisans d'Angkor, which trains young Cambodians in traditional stone carving and wood sculpture, follows.
In town, the group visits Wat Preah Prom Rath pagoda and the shrine at the King's Residence, where locals worship with offerings of jasmine and lotus flowers, before an afternoon left free for shopping at the Old Market and the Siem Reap Art Market.
Day 4: Phnom Kulen mountain excursion
The roughly 58km drive north to Phnom Kulen reaches a mountain considered holy by both Hindus and Buddhists and significant as the site where King Jayavarman II proclaimed Khmer independence in 804 CE. Highlights include the River of a Thousand Lingas carved into the riverbed and a reclining Buddha statue carved into a boulder.
A waterfall inside Kulen National Park makes a shaded picnic stop, and the group calls at Banteay Srey village on the way back to see traditional palm sugar production before returning to Siem Reap.
Day 5: Departure from Siem Reap
Free time until the private transfer to Siem Reap International Airport for the onward or return flight, with no further sightseeing scheduled on the departure day.
