Bayon temple in Angkor Wat, Cambodia

One-day itinerary: Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom – Sunrise to Sunset

Country: Cambodia

1 Day

Siem Reap, Cambodia: Wake up early and head to Angkor Wat for sunrise and a morning tour of the temple before the crowds arrive. Mid-morning head back to your hotel for breakfast before relaxing in the garden, by the pool, or in your own room through the heat of the day.

In the early afternoon head to Angkor Thom, the famous walled city and see the many temples within its borders, including the fascinating Bayon temple with its many magnificent faces smiling out. There are several great spots from which to watch the sunset and your guide will discuss the options with you.
