Gateway to Angkor, a temple civilisation reclaimed by the jungle.

3-4 nights recommendedNovember-March (cool and dry)Plan this chapter →

Siem Reap exists because of Angkor: the largest religious complex on earth and the crowning achievement of the Khmer Empire. At dawn, Angkor Wat's five towers rise in perfect reflection across the moat.

We also arrange Raffles Grand Hotel d'Angkor, the carvings of Banteay Srei, and the Phare circus, arriving via Siem Reap-Angkor (SAI).
