Travel from Siem Reap to jungle-covered Beng Mealea and the seven-tiered Koh Ker pyramid in a small group of up to 10. English-speaking guides such as Kim, Nara, Pip, and Tola explain Khmer history and culture, while the air-conditioned vehicle, cold towels, and hotel pickup keep the long day comfortable.

“Our guide, King Kong, was incredibly informative and helpful throughout the entire tour. He’s a very friendly, welcoming guide who was only too happy to share all of his extensive knowledge with us and encourage any questions we had. We spent just the right amount of time at each temple and had opportunities to take photos or have our photo taken by our guide. I recommend this tour as it takes you a bit further out than Angkor Wat, and it is nice to see temples of a different kind and the Cambodian countryside on the way.”
