DAY 1: GRAND CIRCUIT

After breakfast, We start on our bike to world heritage areas on the roads less travelled. Ride among the jungle passing local village and local shop. It’s a very special and acting day as you will explore some of Angkor’s most beautiful temples. You will visit the West Gate of Angkor Thom – undiscovered by mass tourist. We proceed to the mighty temple of Preah Khan or 'Sacred Sword', built by King Jayavarman VII in the late 12th century. Sister temple to Ta Prohm, the cruciform corridors here are impressive and there are some wonderful carvings adorning the walls, including the spectacular hall of dancers. We then continue on to the elegant curves of Neak Poan. This petite temple is the ultimate ornamental fountain, its series of elaborate spouts including the heads of lions and elephants. We finish by experiencing sunset over the rice fields from the royal crematorium of Pre Rup, a classic view of the Cambodian countryside.

We continue the photogenic of Srah Srang – The Royal Baths" was once used for ritual bathing. Banteay Kdei – Surrounded by four concentric walls. Back to your hotel and Overnight in Siem Reap

DAY 2: BENG MEALEA & KAMPONG PHLUK

We drive up to the northeast of the city to the picturesque temple of Beng Mealea. The journey out takes us through some perfect countryside for photography passing through traditional Cambodian villages, rice fields, oxen and cattle. The Temple of Beng Melea is still overrun by vegetation and not often visited by tourists, giving us a fantastic ruin for exploration. In the afternoon, we travel to Kampong Phluk as you go further into the village, your senses will be assaulted by a salty smell that is not entirely pleasant. It comes from fish, crocodile, and pig farms.

The villagers also 'grow' their vegetables. This water hyacinth on the left grows naturally and they eat the young ones as part of their diet. Kampong Phluk is practically located at the edge of the Tonle Sap lake, where every year the water level rises and falls depending on the season.

During the wet season, the lake 'overflows' and floods the area surrounding it. The opposite happens during the dry season. This flooding ritual is why houses on the village are constructed on stilts. The Cambodian villagers adapt to the yearly change by adjusting the height of their houses depending on the water level. As the boat slowly moves further into the village, you will see Cambodian people going on with their lives, whether it's washing clothes, trading, cleaning newly caught fish, or relaxing in the house safe from the hot sun. back to the city and overnight in Siem Reap – Finish the Tours.
