Understandably, it is on the bucket-list of many tourists. Gear up for a Cambodia trip with Trikon’s holiday package to explore the depth and beauty of this wonderful country.
Day 1: SIEM REAP ARRIVAL
Arrive at the Siem Reap International Airport. Our hospitable guide will receive you at the airport and escort you to the hotel in town. Get ready to visit the War Museum in the afternoon. This museum offers an insightful view of the wars in Cambodia in the last 3 decades. You will find on display an amazing collection of war machines such as artillery, tanks, fighter aircraft, guns, landmines, rare photographs etc.
(You can consider visiting an alternative War Museum –the Angkor National Museum at your own expense, which is spread over 20,000 sq.m and portrays the Golden Era of the Khmer Empire. This outstanding museum is replete with facilities and recreation services). After a visit to the museum, enjoy your dinner while watching Apsara Dance Show. Head back to Siem Reap for an overnight stay. (D)
Day 2: FULL DAY TOUR TO ANGKOR TEMPLES
After relishing on scrumptious breakfast at the hotel, head out to visit the ancient city of Angkor Thom. This city, which is surroundedby an 8m high wall,was the last capital of the Great Khmer Empire.
Later continue to Ta Prohm Temple, which is full of natural beauty. This photogenic place is unlike most other Angkor temples. The sight of trees growing out of the temple ruins makes it one of Angkor's most popular temples.
In the afternoon, visit the great Angkor Wat, a temple dedicated to the Hindu god Vishnu. This temple was built by King Suryavarman II, who reigned from1131 to 1150. It took over 30 years to build this temple.
The most interesting thing about Angkor Wat, Cambodia is that it features the longest continuous bas-relief in the world, which runs along the outer gallery walls and depicts stories from Hindu mythology. In 1992, the UNESCO declared Angkor Wat as a World Heritage Site.
In the evening, you will be free to experience the colourful nightlife by visiting the local Pub Street that houses several bars, discos and restaurants. After exploring the nightspots, rest in your hotel in Siem Reap. (B, L, D)
Note: Only long pants covering the knees and shirts that cover the shoulders are allowed in Angkor Temple Complex.
Day 3: SIEM REAP FULL DAY TOUR
Day 3 will be all about Siem Reap tours. This morning, you will visit Kbal Spean, which literally means “Bridge Ahead”. It is an archaeological site that consists of a series of stone rock carvings commonly known as the “river of a thousand lingas”. This site is about a 30-minute walk up the hill.
Continue your visit to Banteay Srey and Banteay Samre temples. These beautiful temples feature red sandstone construction and ornate design, which gives them a fairyland like ambiance! Banteay Samre Temple is named after the “Samre” ancient people of Indochina. Return to Siem Reap for an overnight stay. (B/L/D)
Day 4: SIEM REAP - PHNOM PENH BY BUS

Day 5: PHNOM PENH FULL DAY CITY TOUR
Gain insight into Cambodia’s contrasting history by visiting the remarkable Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum. This museum is housed in the former school that was taken over by the Khmer Rouge. It was used as its main detention and torture centre named ‘S-21’.
In the afternoon, visit the National Museum and understand Angkorian history. Explore the famous Royal Palace, built in 1866 under the French protectorate and King Norodom. Just adjoining the palace is a Silver Pagoda, famous for its intricate decorations, silver paved floors and precious metals and stones studded Buddha statues.

In the evening, join locals doing exercise and take a 10-15 min walk along the riverside. Enjoy the sunset view from the boat pier and go on a boat ride along the Mekong River for 1 hour. Get back to the hotel in Phnom Penh for an overnight stay. (B/L/D)
