Route details

Your afternoon tour of the Angkor sunset starts at our shop and takes you through the scenic countryside of Siem Reap, crossing the Siem Reap River. You'll then follow a less-traveled path that leads behind Angkor Wat, offering a serene and unobstructed view of this historically and religiously significant site for many Cambodians.

After a quick break for cold water, we'll continue our journey, avoiding the crowds leaving Angkor Park. Instead, we'll navigate narrow lanes through beautiful rice fields and small historical family plots, where life has remained unchanged for generations. As we get closer to the temples, we’ll use park roads and trails to explore this remarkable historic area from a unique perspective.

To wrap up the evening, we'll enjoy a private Dragon Boat cruise along an ancient waterway, savoring local delicacies and refreshments while taking in a stunning sunset. Your support vehicle will be ready to take you back to your hotel in Siem Reap around 6:30 pm.
