Discover the Wonders of Angkor on a One Day Angkor Wat Tour

The Angkor Wat Tour starts early in Siem Reap, when the city is still calm and the light is soft. This well paced tour allows travelers to visit Angkor Wat during the famous Angkor Wat Sunrise, a moment when the reflection pools glow and the scale of the Angkor Wat Temple truly sinks in. With a knowledgeable tour guide, you explore the heart of Angkor, learning how this vast site once functioned as the political and spiritual center of the Khmer Empire. Over the course of the day, the tour moves through several key temples, combining iconic landmarks with quieter ruins that give depth to the overall experience. It feels immersive without being rushed, making it one of the best ways to understand this legendary place in Cambodia.

• Purchase your day pass in advance to save time
• A tuk tuk or vehicle helps reduce fatigue between stops

With these basics in mind, you are free to focus on what you came to see.

More Facts About This Experience

Angkor Wat is the largest religious monument in the world and a UNESCO heritage site.
