- Angkor Wat - Witness the most iconic sunrise in South-East Asia at Angkor Wat. This site is the largest and best-preserved monument in the world, celebrated as an architectural marvel. Its flawless composition, balance, proportions, reliefs, and sculptures make it one of the world’s most exquisite monuments.
- Banteay Kdei - Unlike the often crowded and popular Angkorian ruins, Banteay Kdei offers a serene and tranquil experience. Originally a Buddhist temple, it has housed an active monastery at various times since its 12th-century construction, up until the 1960s. Today, the overgrown ruins are largely overlooked by the busy Angkor tourism scene, making it a hidden treasure for explorers. Tall trees provide shade over Buddhist bas-reliefs, and its winding design invites hours of exploration.
- Srah Srang - After visiting Angkor Wat, we’ll enjoy a delightful breakfast with the best view of the Srah Srang reservoir.
- Ta Prohm - Known as the world’s most beautiful temple, Ta Prohm is a ruined temple nestled in the jungle. Internationally recognized as the “Tomb Raider Temple” due to its appearance in a film starring Angelina Jolie, the massive trees growing out of the temple stones make Ta Prohm Cambodia’s most stunning temple.
- Angkor Thom - Angkor Thom was the last and most enduring capital city of the Khmer Empire. Established in the late 12th century, it spans a 9-square-kilometer area and contains numerous structures from earlier periods, including the Bayon temple, Baphoun, and the Royal Palace.
- Bayon Temple - Built in the 12th century as the state temple of King Jayavarman VII, Bayon Temple is situated in the heart of Angkor Thom. It exemplifies the artistic genius of the most famous king of the Khmer Empire, with its 54 towers adorned with 216 smiling faces of Avalokiteshvara.

A private sunrise tour you need to book! - Seriously, this private tour was the best thing we did in Cambodia. I know everyone says you have to see the Angkor Wat sunrise, but going private makes it 100 times better. It turned a potentially stressful, crowded morning into a super relaxed and personal experience.
Our guide, Paren was absolutely fantastic. They showed up right on time and immediately took charge. They handled the crowds like a pro and made sure we got the perfect spot—seriously, we had the best view! While we waited for the sun to rise and turn everything golden, Paren told us such cool stories and shared the history of the temples. It was like having a super knowledgeable friend show you around.
After the sunrise, we went straight into exploring the rest of the park while it was still quiet. We saw the giant faces at Bayon (so cool!), the huge walls of Angkor Thom, and the amazing jungle takeover at Ta Prohm. Plus, we got to see the beautiful Banteay Kdei.
If you're thinking about seeing Angkor Wat, please do yourself a favor and book this exact tour. It's totally worth the money for the amazing guide, the hassle-free experience, and getting to see the temples up close. Highly, highly recommend!

Magical Sunrise & Unforgettable Journey Through Angkor - I cannot recommend this private sunrise tour enough—it was truly the highlight of my trip to Cambodia. Our guide ensured we had the perfect viewing spot at Angkor Wat, away from the big crowds, so we could fully take in the magical moment when the temple was bathed in golden light. Watching the sun rise behind the iconic towers is an experience I’ll never forget.
What made it even more special was our guide’s knowledge and passion for Cambodian history and culture. As we waited for the sunrise, he shared fascinating stories about Angkor Wat and the Khmer Empire, which gave so much meaning to what we were seeing.
The tour didn’t end with the sunrise. We explored other breathtaking temples—Bayon with its serene smiling faces, Ta Prohm with its tree roots reclaiming the ruins, Banteay Kdei, and the grandeur of Angkor Thom. Each stop felt like stepping back in time, and our guide brought the history to life in such a captivating way.
Having a private tour made the whole experience feel personal, relaxed, and flexible. It never felt rushed, and we could ask as many questions as we wanted.
If you’re visiting Siem Reap, this is the tour to take. The sunrise at Angkor Wat is beyond words, and exploring the temples with a knowledgeable guide will give you a much deeper appreciation for Cambodia’s incredible heritage. Truly unforgettable!

The tour is well organized and everything was the best, we loved it! - Narren and Ven was coming to pick us up from our hotel at the right time, they both have made our day. We brought a big camera cause we needed some nice photos of sunrise and Narren was really great cause he knew a best spot as our needed. After a few hours at Angkor Wat we went for breakfast at Neary Khmer restaurant and Narren recommended us us to tried a local breakfast "Rice with fried fish" and that was amazing. The tour is well organized and everything was running well, we loved it!
