This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Koh Ker Temple, RN64 – 2km south KOH KER site entrance and Srayang 100 Km North of Siem Reap Cambodia
The main temple at Koh Ker is a 7-tier step-pyramid that would not look out of place on the Yucatan Peninsula. A wooden walkway to the summit has improved access and safety and the views from the top are rewarding.
Duration: 2 hours
Stop At: Beng Mealea, 40 km east of Angkor Wat Cambodia
Beng Mealea is a large temple with wide galleries that resemble those of Angkor Wat. The jungle once engulfed the temple buildings, but has been cut back to allow for a good view of the elegant structures and sculptures.
Duration: 2 hours
