What places are in the 4-Day Siem Reap Discovery Tour?
1. Angkor Wat
Angkor Wat is the best-known temple in Siem Reap. On this plan, guests arrive for sunrise, then keep time to walk the stone halls, ponds, libraries, courtyards, and carved walls at their own pace. The site sits inside the Angkor Archaeological Park, one of the major temple areas in Asia.
2. Angkor Thom
Angkor Thom was the last great royal city of the Khmer Empire. Guests enter through the South Gate, then move into the old city area where stone faces, raised terraces, and temple ruins still hold the day in a quiet grip.
3. Bayon Temple
Bayon is known for its many stone faces. Walk the passages, look at the carved walls, and take your time with the light as it moves across the towers.
4. Baphuon and the Terrace of the Elephants
These stops add old royal space, long stone lines, and broad views across the temple area. They fit well into the same day, since they sit near Bayon inside Angkor Thom.
5. Ta Prohm
Ta Prohm is the temple many guests remember most. Tree roots press over walls and doorways, and the whole place feels half stone, half forest. It is one of the most photo-ready stops on the route.
6. Kampong Phluk
Kampong Phluk sits in the Tonle Sap area and is known for tall stilt houses and boat access. On this plan, your driver takes you there, and guests can set up the local boat on arrival.
7. Dinner show stop
This evening stop adds dinner and Khmer dance after a free afternoon. Your driver takes guests there and back, so the night stays easy.

Pickup and Drop Off
Your driver meets you at the airport on arrival and takes you to your hotel in Siem Reap. On the last day, your driver picks you up at the hotel and takes you back to the airport.
The airport is about 50 kilometers from town, so this ride matters more than many guests think at first. A pre-booked car saves time, keeps arrival day calm, and gives you one less thing to sort out after landing. Source

Additional Information
What should guests know before booking the 4-Day Siem Reap Discovery Tour?
The 4-Day Siem Reap Discovery Tour is a transport-only plan. Your driver handles the road, but site tickets, guide service, meals, and local boats are paid by guests.
Angkor passes are sold on the official Angkor Enterprise site. The official pass page lists 1-day, 3-day, and 7-day options for Angkor Temples Park, and it also lists opening hours from 5:00 AM to 6:30 PM. Source
Angkor is a major archaeological area spread over about 400 square kilometers, so driving time between stops is part of the day. That is one more reason private transport makes this plan easier on a short stay. Source
If you want a later temple start than sunrise, ask before booking. This plan is private, so timing may be adjusted when the route and site hours allow.
