“Experience the most Magical Sunrise in Asia!”
Our Angkor Sunrise combines this magical moment with all of the highlights usually associated with our acclaimed Angkor tour! But in true Vespa Adventure fashion we do things differently to ensure a unique and unforgettable experience that will stay with you forever!
Upon entering the archeological park, we separate ourselves from the other tourists and take you to a hidden and seldom used entrance. There is silence as we cross the lotus filled moat under the moon and the stars. The silence is broken by the early morning chorus of the birds and insects as the sun begins to rise. Still we find ourselves alone until we reach the other side where all the other sunrise visitors are lying in wait with their cameras ready.Your guide will lead you to the best photo spots before retreating once again from the crowds to enjoy what needs to be a peaceful moment of reflection at this World Heritage site. Once the sun has done its thing we then venture into the world’s largest religious building for a guided tour. This is followed by a tasty breakfast (local or western) and a fresh coffee. We then continue to the walled city of Angkor Thom, the Bayon and Ta Prohm (the “Tomb Raider” temple), as well as some lesser known gems. We dodge the big buses by leaving the busy roads behind using hidden trails through the jungle, villages and rice fields – a unique experience that visitors on 4 wheels simply cannot recreate! We then return you to your hotel in time for lunch, with the rest of your day to enjoy!
