Active Indochina Honeymoon Vacation: 4-Week Cambodia - Laos - Vietnam Holiday

Upon arrival at Siem Reap airport, you are warmly welcomed by our friendly tour guide and then transfer to hotel for check in & refresh.

Siem Reap province is located in northwest Cambodia. It is the major tourist hub in Cambodia, as it is the closest city to the world famous temples of Angkor (the Angkor temple complex is north of the city). The proximity of the Angkorian ruins turned Siem Reap into a boomtown in less than half a decade. Siem Reap is a safe, friendly, and pleasant town.

Tonight enjoy our welcome dinner with Apsara Dance Show.

Overnight in Siem Reap.

Set out to explore Angkor complex via bicycle this morning, pedalling through dense jungles of the magnificent temples of Angkor.

Begin with a visit to Ta Prohm Temple (the setting of one of the Tomb Raider films), built in the mid-12th to early 13th centuries in dedication to Jayavarman VII’s mother. Ta Prohm is unique in that it has been left largely as it was found: overgrown by jungle, trees and vines, with many parts of the temple crumbling to the ground. This makes Ta Prohm one of the most picturesque and memorable of the Angkor temples.

From Ta Prohm, dive back into the jungle and pedal through hidden passages to the ruins of Ta Nei (Grandfather Nei) and Preah Khan (dedicated to Jayavarman VII’s father) before heading to Angkor Thom. This was the last capital of the Great Khmer Empire under the reign of Jayavarman VII. An eight meter high wall draws a perfect square around the city ruin. Enter through the ancient East Gate. On each side of the entrance path a row of fifty-four gods and demons hold the sacred Naga snake of Hindu lore.

From the walls of Angkor Thom, head inward for Bayon Temple in the exact center of the city. This 12th century masterpiece is a study in grandeur and is well-known for its fifty-four towers with enigmatic faces representing the fifty-four provinces of the Great Khmer Empire. The Terrace of the Elephants and the Terrace of the Leper King are also must-visits as they are both known for their intricate bas-reliefs.

Southward now, through Angkor Thom to the famous Angkor Wat, the largest religious monument in the world. It was originally constructed as a Hindu temple of god Vishnu gradually transforming into a Buddhist temple toward the end of the 12th century.  Built during the reign of King Suryavarman II, Angkor Wat is constructed following the model of the temple mountain symbolizing Mount Meru, the home of the gods.

Inside the temple, the walls are covered with stone carvings and bas-reliefs depicting Hindu mythology and the wars Suryavarman II fought during his reign. Angkor Wat is well known for the more than 2,000 Apsara dancers decorating the temple. Construction is thought to have taken around thirty years of intensive labor. Today, Angkor Wat is figured on Cambodia's national flag as the temple symbolizes the soul of the Khmer people.

One of the first Western visitors to the temple was António da Madalena, a Portuguese monk who visited in 1586 and said that it “is of such extraordinary construction that it is not possible to describe it with a pen, particularly since it is like no other building in the world. It has towers and decoration and all the refinements which the human genius can conceive of.”

Tonight, enjoy an evening show and go see Phare Ponleu Selpak (PPS), which means “the brightness of art.” Phare is a cultural organisation in Cambodia, that offers young people a way out of poverty by training them to become professional artists and performers. Take part to this extraordinary human adventure and witness for one evening the astonishing skills of these young artists.  

Overnight in Siem Reap.

After an early breakfast, meet the guide and begin a lovely cycle to the famous Beng Mealea Temple.  It’s about a 55 km ride on the backroads to see the real Cambodia.  There is an option to be transferred by air-conditioned vehicle anytime.

Under the reign of the kings Jayavarman IV and Harshavarman II, Koh Ker was briefly the capital of the whole empire and more than ten thousand people lived here during that time (928 – 944 AD).  With over 70 temples as well as the highest pyramid style temple in Cambodia, the main Koh Ker temple is as stunning as the ancient Mayan ruins in Mexico.

At the base of the mountain, climb into a 4WD vehicle and then ascend the steep mountain to the top.  Take a couple of hours to explore this incredible temple complex.

Prasat Preah Vihear has the most spectacular setting of all the temples built during the six-centuries-long Khmer Empire during the reigns of the Khmer Kings Suryavarman I (1006–1050) and Suryavarman II (1113–1150) and was built to better worship the Hindu god Shiva. At the peak, be rewarded with fabulous views over Cambodia’s and Thailand’s fertile plains. The impressive ruins reach skyward to nearly 525 metres, perched on the edge of cliffs with amazing views over the seemingly endless Cambodian jungle to the south. The temple is not yet restored but has spectacular carvings and lintels which are almost as splendid as those at Banteay Srei.   The spectacular location paired with a unique temple design is the reason UNESCO listed Preah Vihear as a World Heritage site.

Upon descent, it is time for the next chapter of today’s adventure:  Hop onto a 4WD US Army-Style Jeep and drive 100km west ward along the Dangrek Mountain Range that separates Cambodia from Thailand.  Have the option to drive the 4WD or to let the jeep guide drive along a remote and untouched road. This will take about 2-3 hours before arriving at Kampong SreLao, a small community right on the Mekong River across from Laos.  Here, hop onto the mountain bikes (Trek X-caliber 7 series) for a 24 km ride. Traverse along the Mekong in this very beautiful area. Arrive at the Sokhapheamit Waterfalls to take a break and stand in awe of this spectacular series of rapids.
