Dive into the depths of Hue's royal history with a full-day tour that takes you from the majestic Imperial City, a testament to the grandeur of the Nguyen Dynasty, to the serene resting places of emperors and the spiritual tranquillity of the Thien Mu Pagoda.
We begin at the Imperial City, where echoes of the past resonate through the restored palaces and temples, mirroring the splendour of Beijing's Forbidden City. This historical heart of Hue offers a profound glimpse into the cultural and architectural achievements of the Nguyen emperors. Following the exploration of the Citadel and lunch, venture into the picturesque countryside to discover the Royal Tombs of two of Vietnam's former rulers, encapsulating the legacy and lore of their reigns.

Start your visit at the South Gate of Angkor Thom, where statues of the gods of good and evil line the entrance. Your next stop is Bayon, a richly decorated temple. Its most distinctive feature is the hundreds of smiling faces that grace the towers. Impressive bas-reliefs tell stories of daily life and of the great battles that were fought between the Khmers and ancient Thais.
Move on to Phimeanakas, shaped like a pyramid with two ponds in the rear. Walk to the top of the temple for impressive views of the Angkor complex.
Take a short drive to Ta Prohm, one of Cambodia’s most beloved temples. Unusually, Ta Prohm is in much the same condition in which it was found. The combination of large trees growing out of the ruins and the surrounding jungle give the temple a truly magical feel.
Return to Siem Reap for lunch and to escape the hot sun. Spend the rest of the afternoon exploring magnificent Angkor Wat, the world’s largest religious monument and best-preserved temple in the complex. This visually spectacular massive three-tired pyramid has become a symbol of Cambodia, appearing on its flag. Admire the grandeur of its architecture and its extensive decoration of bas-relief friezes. End your day taking in the views of the sunset over the jungle from the top of Pre Rup Temple before returning to Siem Reap.
Travel about 45 kilometers from Siem Reap to Tonle Sap Lake. Here jump on a boat to Kompong Khleang, a village built high on stilts in Tonle Sap Lake. Discover this fascinating village that is home to about 6,000 people who earn their living mainly through fishing.
Depending on the time of year, your visit will give you a different experience. During the monsoon season starting in May, the streets fill up with water and become canals that are navigated by boat. In the dry season from March to April, the water recedes revealing the houses perched high on wooden stilts. We recommend the best time to visit is from October to January.
Your driver will pick you up at your hotel and transfer you to the airport.
