Angkor can get very busy, particularly at Christmas and Chinese New Year. But crowds can sap all the enjoyment from the mystical and serene temples. Sunrise at Angkor Wat and sunset at Phnom Bakheng are popular, but lost their magic years ago. Instead, visit Angkor Wat mid-day when the queues to climb to the third level are shortest. While the walk along the causeway to the temple is hot, most of your time will be spent under the shade of the temple.
Upon arrival in Siem Reap, you will be picked up from the airport and transferred to a hotel in Siem Reap for relaxing and your welcome dinner with Apsara performance
