One Day Tour: Siem Reap arrival - Koh Ker - Beng Mealea – Floating Village

When you arrive at the airport in Siem Reap, you will be welcome by a Cambodia Journey Wisdom representative just outside the exit door of airport. And we will drive you out to hotel by passing the main roads, markets, some recommended restaurants and shops before dropping you off at your hotel to check in.

*Or other option we will pick you up at your own place.

After check in and drop all your bags and belonging at hotel we will continue our trip to see a 10^th century as the stepped 7-tiered pyramid shape temple of Koh Ker which was build in the reign of king Jayavarman IV. On the way we will see the Cambodia’s rural villages, traditional Khmer houses, scenic rice fields and many fruits farms along the way with the beautiful green high hill.  It’s the former capital of Khmer empire, known as “ a glance city “. The temple is 36 meters (118 ft) high. Koh Ker is the lonely temple that stands in the heavily deep forest and surrounded by the complex of many temple such as Prasat Pram Temple (Tree of life temple), Prasat Neang Khmao (Dark lady temple), Elephant temple and more.

Then we will have a break for lunch and drink at the restaurant near by  the temple before we continue our exited tour.

Next we go to see the Jungle Temple Beng Mealea. This temple is very special because it was not rebuilt and vegetation grows inside the temple and around the stone. You will feel like Indiana Jones with exploring this temple.

Later we drive back to Siem Reap and go on to the south to the lake for floating village. We will visit the biggest fresh water lake in South-East Asia called Tonle Sap Lake in the late afternoon. Where we will take a traditional wooden motor boat on a tour along the lake to visit the local floating village, fishing village (get experiences with local people’s life activities at the lake which is completely different), flooded forest and the big open of the lake like the sea. Return to Siem Reap in the evening and dinner at a restaurant in town. Enjoy time for shopping and massage before driving back to hotel.
