Très belle visite en scooter des principaux temples autour de Siam Reap. Le guide était excellent. Nous avons pu échanger en français avec l'organisation. Le restaurant du deuxième jour était remarquable.
Both Angkor circuits over two mornings, then a private boat on the great lake for the last of the light.
Angkor takes two mornings to do properly, and most people find that out standing in the heat halfway through an overloaded single day. Where this trip differs is the ending. Day one runs the inner loop, Angkor Wat through Bayon to the tree roots of Ta Prohm. Day two heads out to the Grand Circuit, the forest ring where Preah Khan's corridors run long and half-lit and whole courtyards are yours alone. Then day three slows right down: a free morning, a Jeep out through the rice fields at two, and a village on stilts where your own boat idles through while the village winds up its day. The trip ends with drinks open on open water, watching the sun go into the lake.
The three temples everyone comes to Cambodia for, done in the cool half of the day and finished by mid-afternoon.
This is your private tour, so the order and the pace flex around you and the light. Tell your guide what you most want time with.
Seven sites on the wider loop, at a fraction of day one's crowd. Same start window, same finish, very different feeling.
Day two is deliberately the quieter one, and it is the day guests say surprised them most.
A free morning, a Jeep run out to the great lake, a private boat through a village on stilts, and the light going down over open water.
The village looks completely different depending on the water level, and neither version is the wrong one to see. Day 3 is outside the park, so no Angkor Pass is needed for it. We will not schedule it on a Phare Circus evening.
Everyone books this for the temples. Nobody talks about the temples on the way home.
By the third morning most people have taken four hundred photographs of carved stone and are quietly wondering whether they need a fifth hundred. That is the point at which this itinerary stops.
You spend the afternoon on a boat instead, going slowly through a village on stilts living its own evening around you, and then out to where there is nothing on any side. Drinks come out. The light drops fast this close to the equator, maybe twenty minutes from gold to gone. It is the last thing you do in Siem Reap and it is the one people describe first when they get back.

If you want to visit the Temples through the Angkor forest, this is the best idea to sneak into it on a Vespa ! And you can still enjoy the sunset and stay secured thanks to the guide. We really enjoyed ! Thank you !
Angkor VIP style. Wonderful day in the company of Benedict who took us off the beaten track, discover treasures of Angkor, away from the crowds of tourists. Departure from our house in vintage jeep. Refreshing wipes scented with jasmine water. Temples, both splendid and isolated. Little paths in the jungle. Backdoors. A few mysteries revealed thanks to his detailed knowledge of the sites and their history. Exquisite lunch at home. An indispensable and unavoidable escape.
Fantastic day out Really fantastic tour on the Vespas - thanks so much to our three guides who made us feel safe and looked after us really well. They took us to see the mine detecting rats (brilliant visit) which was unexpected, and the lake and lunch. Really a super day out.
Siem Reap Vespa Our Vespa guide was spectacular. His English was excellent. He was knowledgeable about the city and its culture. He answered all questions, including restaurant recommendations for other sites in the country to see, and even answered a few questions about Anger Wat that we forgot to ask. Our drivers were cautious, We also went on a Vespa Tour with the same sound quality in Hanoi.
Great Trip and Staff is A+++. Great experience to try all kinds of food and the staff is amazing. They drive very safe and have a lot of fun too. Was able to give them preferences and what we like and don't like, they nailed the experience. Thanks Vespa Tour Team! A++++
Daily Life of Cambodia people. We could experience a lot of the daily life of Cambodian people. In the hot weather, this means of transport was enjoyable. All our questions have been answered. We will not forget this journey on the Vespa.
Another view of Siem Rep. Tour of Seam Rep on Vespa made another vision of the town. Food street was amazing! And our daughter was a good singer at the karaoke! All the family enjoyed this trip
Our $365 three-day spends all three days in the temples. This one spends two, then hands the last day to the lake, so the trip ends on a boat at sunset instead of a third circuit.
Three days is right; three days of temples is usually too much. Almost everyone finds their attention for stone carving runs out somewhere in the middle of day two, which is exactly why this itinerary has two temple days rather than three.
The 3-day pass, $62 per person, bought online in advance at angkorenterprise.gov.kh rather than queued for at the office. There is no 2-day pass, so this is the pass any two-day temple visit needs anyway. Days 1 and 2 use it; the lake needs none, so the pass's third day stays spare and valid all week. Plenty of guests spend it on one more temple during a free morning. Children under 12 enter free with a passport.
No. The pass is valid on any three days inside a 7-day window, and the lake day needs no pass at all, so we can space the itinerary around your other plans. Tell us what else you have booked and we will fit around it.
Your choice on days 1 and 2, and you can swap between them. Both come with your own driver, so you never take the wheel. Day 3 is Jeep only: it is about an hour each way to the lake, with the return after dark, which is not a Vespa run.
Nothing scheduled, on purpose. Days 1 and 2 finish around 2:30 PM and day 3 does not begin until about 2 PM, so you get most of three days back. Guests use them for the hotel pool, the market, a massage, or one more temple on the spare pass day. Ask your guide which temple is quietest at that hour.
Kampong Phluk, about an hour from Siem Reap, not Chong Kneas. Chong Kneas is the closest to town and the one with the documented problems: boats diverting to overpriced floating restaurants, pressured donations, and years of poor reviews to show for it. Kampong Phluk has the tall stilt houses and the mangrove, and we go out on a private boat belonging to one of the village families rather than on a shared twenty-seater.
The village looks completely different, and it is worth seeing either way. High water means boats mooring where people's front steps end and the mangrove reachable by paddled boat. Low water means the same houses standing clear on stilts you could park a car under, a longer approach over dry ground, and usually no mangrove trip. Tell us your dates when you enquire and we will tell you which version you are booking.
Yes. Your group has it to itself, with your own guide and Kiri, our second guide, who lives in Kampong Phluk. The boats there belong to the village families and the work rotates on a queue, so we hire one and take our ticket like everybody else rather than owning a boat of our own.
Yes. Ages 4 to 12 get 30% off, which brings it to $199.50, and under-4s go free. Children under 12 also enter the Angkor park free with a passport. Three days with two free mornings suits families better than a packed itinerary does, and a child seat can be fitted in the Jeep on request.
At your own hotel. This is a three-day touring itinerary, not a package with accommodation, and we collect you from your door every day. If you have not booked yet, ask us and we will tell you which parts of Siem Reap put you closest to the park.
I grew up inside the walls of Angkor Wat, in the pagoda where my grandfather, Loung Sake, served as Grand Abbot. The pagoda still stands today, just inside the enclosure.
Girls weren't allowed to sleep in the monastery, so I shaved my head and dressed as a boy to stay close to him. He taught me Sanskrit on palm leaves.
