Angkor Thom and Bayon Temple Half Day Tuk Tuk Tour

Part of the magnificence of Angkor is filled in an amazing half-day to the Angkor Thom, one of the highlights of the whole complex. Enter Angkor Thom, the last capital of the Khmer Empire, aboard an open-air tuk tuk, or remork, the classic way to get around Siem Reap without a window in sight. Passing through the South Gate, the tour heads first to the Bayon, the 12th century temple at the very centre of Angkor Thom, known for the more than 200 serene stone faces carved across its 54 towers. From there, walk the short distance to the Elephant Terrace and the Terrace of the Leper King, once part of the royal enclosure, before a stop at the Baphuon, where a dress code applies as it remains a revered royal site. Your tuk tuk driver waits nearby throughout, ready to bring you back to your hotel once you've taken in the atmosphere of this once-mighty capital. An open-air, half day introduction to Angkor Thom's centrepiece temples.
