Itinerary

Psar Chaa - Old Market

25 min

We'll wander to the historic Old Market area, the commercial heart of the city. I'll point out unique local fruits and street food stalls. We will then see the famous Pub Street and I'll share how this quiet daytime street transforms into a vibrant hub of nightlife.
Wat Preah Prom Rath

25 min

We'll take a short walk to one of Siem Reap's most beautiful and active Buddhist pagodas. Here, we will explore the colorful grounds while I share stories about the daily spiritual life of the Cambodian people.
Siem Reap Riverside Park

5 min

Next, we'll enjoy a relaxing walk along the shaded banks of the Siem Reap River. I'll share insights into the river's importance to the city and point out the beautiful, historic bridges that connect the two sides of town.
Preah Ang Chek Preah Ang Chom Temple

25 min

As we approach the end of our tour, we'll visit Siem Reap's most sacred local shrine. I'll explain its powerful history, its connection to two princesses, and why it is so important to the people who live here.
Royal Residence

15 min

Our adventure concludes in the beautiful gardens in front of the magnificent Royal Residence, the King of Cambodia's official home in Siem Reap. We can take photos as I share some final stories about the city. This is the perfect place to ask any last questions and get my personal recommendations for the rest of your wonderful day.
