Helicopter scenic flights are subject to local weather conditions and air traffic control clearance; ensure your original passport is carried for pre-flight security verification.

Famous for its delicate pink sandstone architecture, marvel at some of the finest, most intricately preserved relief carvings in classical Khmer art.

Expert Visiting & Cultural Etiquette Insights:
During the private monk blessing ceremony at the pagoda, respectfully remove your shoes and hats before entering the temple hall. Women should take care not to touch the monks directly when receiving blessings or gifts. For morning temple walks on stone steps and uneven tree roots at Ta Prohm, lightweight, breathable clothing and comfortable walking shoes with good traction are recommended.

Morning: Check out of your Siem Reap hotel after breakfast as your private driver escorts you to the airport for a short 50-minute domestic flight south to Phnom Penh, Cambodia's vibrant capital city.

Morning: Board a private wooden riverboat for a peaceful morning cruise up the Mekong River to Silk Island (Koh Dach), a scenic rural island famed for its centuries-old artisanal weaving heritage.
