The Temples Deserve More Than a Day
A multi-day Angkor tour extends beyond the standard one-day small circuit — adding the outer temples (Banteay Srei, Beng Mealea), the floating villages, Kulen Mountain, and time to revisit favourite temples at different times of day.
Two days is the recommended minimum — day one covers the small circuit (Angkor Wat, Bayon, Ta Prohm) and day two covers the outer temples. Three days adds Kulen Mountain or the floating villages. Four to five days covers the comprehensive experience.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many days should I spend at Angkor?
Two days minimum. Three days for a comprehensive visit. The three-day Angkor Pass ($62 USD, usable over 10 days) is the best value for most visitors.
Will I get temple fatigue?
Possibly — the solution is variety: mix the major temples with the outer sites, the countryside, a cooking class, or the floating villages.
