Silk-cotton and strangler fig trees have reclaimed this 12th-century monastery, creating one of the most atmospheric and photographed scenes in all of Southeast Asia.
Ta Nei Temple & Lunch

North Gate of Angkor Thom
Pass through one of the five monumental gateways of the ancient walled city, flanked by rows of gods and demons carved in stone.
Bayon Temple
The tour's closing highlight — Bayon's 216 serene stone faces look out in every direction, and the late-afternoon light makes the carvings glow.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to buy the Angkor temple pass separately?
Yes. The Angkor Archaeological Park entrance pass costs USD 37 per person and is not included in this tour. It can be purchased at the official ticket office near the park entrance. Note that the price is subject to change.
Which guide language should I choose?
At the time of booking, simply select the ticket option for your preferred language — English, Chinese, or Korean-speaking guides are all available. The tour content and route are identical across all three.
Is this tour suitable for children?
Children aged 11 and under are not permitted on this tour. The 10-kilometre trek over uneven temple terrain requires a reasonable level of fitness and stamina.
What happens if the weather is extreme on the day?
In cases of severe weather, the tour may be cancelled or the itinerary adjusted for safety. If this affects your booking, the operator will notify you directly.
I have a dietary requirement — can the lunch be adjusted?
Please advise of any allergies or specific dietary needs at the time of booking so the operator can make arrangements in advance.
What is the dress code and why does it matter?
Entry to Angkor's temples requires conservative dress. Women must cover their shoulders, knees, and ankles; men are not permitted to wear shorts. Guests who do not meet the dress code may be refused entry to individual temples.
