Description

Discover the Kingdom of wonder on this three-day tour. Cambodia, a fascinating mix of culture and majestic heritage and ancient and modern worlds collide to create unforgettable adventures. Marvel before its glorious temples, matched by only a few select spots on earth. 

TOUR HIGHLIGHTS

Angkor Thom: Jayavarman VII, Angkor’s greatest king, constructed the fortified city of Angkor Thom in the 12th century. The city has five monumental gates decorated by the head of Avalokiteshvara, the Buddha of Compassion, facing in four directions. 

Angkor Wat: The largest religious monument in the world, its famous silhouette never fails to impress. It covers a huge area of 1.6 square kilometres (one square mile) and is surrounded by a wide moat. 

Banteay Srei: Unique to Banteay Srei is the rare pink sandstone on which are exquisite ornamental carvings of gods, demons, coiling serpents and floral garlands. 

Ta Prohm: This temple is dedicated to the mother of Jayavarman VII, constructed as a Buddhist monastery and enormously wealthy in its time. Well worth an extended exploration of its dark corridors and open plazas, also called 'The Tomb Raider Temple'. 

Tonle Sap: Is one of the largest freshwater lakes in the world, cyclically swelling from 2,500 square kilometres to more than 12,000 square kilometres in the wet season.
