About this activity

Angkor Wat Sunrise: Private Dawn Experience

Before the world wakes, Angkor Wat belongs to you.

Somewhere in the dark, a 900-year-old temple is waiting for the sun. Most travellers arrive with the crowd, stand behind a wall of raised phones and leave when the show is over. You will do it differently.

Your private driver meets you at your hotel in the quiet hours before dawn. There is no shared bus and no waiting for a group. Cold water and a refreshing towel are ready as you travel through a sleeping Siem Reap toward the most sacred skyline in Cambodia.

Your guide walks you across the great causeway as the first birdsong begins. Then the sky starts to change. Indigo melts into violet, violet into rose, rose into gold, and the five towers of Angkor Wat rise in perfect silhouette. Because you arrive early and know where to stand, you watch it from a place chosen for the light and the moment, not left to chance.

Banteay Srei was built earlier than Angkor Wat in the 10th century and it was dedicated to Shiva. It has a pink colour to it because of the red sandstone.
