5 Days Phnom Penh & Siem Reap Tour Package

After breakfast at the hotel, visit the Royal Palace and Silver Pagoda, two iconic landmarks and examples of Khmer architecture, initially constructed by the French in 1866. The Silver Pagoda's floor is adorned with 5,329 silver tiles, giving it its name. Next, explore the Central Market (Psar Thmei), where your guide will introduce you to various local snacks, foods, and fruits. Afterward, return to the hotel for check-out.

Continue to the National Museum of Phnom Penh, recognized for its warm red terracotta structure and Khmer-style architecture. The museum, designed by French architect Grolier in 1917, houses important artifacts of Cambodian heritage. After the museum, transfer to Phnom Penh Airport for a flight to Siem Reap, where you’ll meet the local guide and check in at your hotel. Dinner on your own.

Breakfast at the hotel. To avoid the crowds, depart at 6:30 am to visit Angkor Wat. Explore the temple's architectural marvel and fine carvings of Apsaras. Continue to Srah Srang, the royal pool, and enjoy a high tea and picnic breakfast at a local house in the village. Next, visit Ta Prohm temple, famously overgrown with trees, for a haunting and exotic experience.

Return to the hotel for a lunch break (lunch on your own). In the afternoon, visit the Royal City of Angkor Thom and explore the 50-tower Bayon Temple, known for its carved faces. Enter the South Gate and walk along the 8-meter-high wall to the less touristy Death Gate. Pass by the Terraces of Elephants and Leper King, and visit Phimeanakas and Baphuon temples. Finish the day with sunset at Phnom Bakheng, offering a spectacular view of the Western Baray and Angkor Wat.

Wake early for a sunrise view from Phnom Krom, overlooking rice paddies and the floating village on Tonle Sap Lake. After breakfast, take a boat trip to Chong Kneas Floating Village to witness traditional lakeside life. Visit an Artisan Dangkor workshop and return to the hotel for relaxation (lunch on your own).

At 3 pm, your guide and scooter driver (or tuk-tuk if preferred) will take you to Krabei Riel Village to observe daily life in the fields and gardens. At Mr. Ron’s house, join his wife, Mrs. Sina, for a cooking class and learn to prepare three Cambodian dishes. Enjoy dinner with the family before returning to your hotel in Siem Reap.
