Itinerary

Pickup from Phnom Penh transfer sightseeing stops & visit Koh Ker group (Koh Ker Pyramid temple,  Prasat Thom), Prasat Pram, Linga temple, Prasat Damrei, Beng Mealea and drop-off in Siem Reap.

Start form Phnom Penh  heading on road Number #6, 62 north/east toward Koh Ker (often the longest stretch of the day) explore lost ancient city in the jungle one less reach attraction Koh Ker city “Koh Pyramid” (Prasat Thom)

We’ll visit the famous stepped “pyramid” temple and surrounding remains.

Short history (easy overview): Koh Ker was the Khmer Empire’s capital for a period in the 10th century. It’s best known for monumental architecture and the temple mountain style—so the stepped pyramid shape is the highlight.

  • Visit tip: Plan time to walk the main mound/levels and explore nearby structures (the site feels bigger than expected).

Route drive from Koh Ker to Beng Mealea (more rural roads; allow some flexibility)

You’ll visit: temple ruins half-covered by trees, with collapsed galleries and winding paths. Beng Mealea is a Khmer-era temple complex built with a classic temple layout, later affected by centuries of nature and abandonment—so it looks “jungle-invaded,” which is exactly what makes it special today.

  • Visit tip: Wear shoes for uneven ground; it’s more “adventure/slow exploring” than a clean, fully not restored temple

Route (drive) to Beng Mealea to Siem Reap city

Drop-off: Siem Reap (hotel or a central location) From Siem Reap, city and hotel where most visitors continue to Angkor-area next day but your day ends with a comfortable arrival hotel after the countryside 2stops.
