Description

Discover the heart of Angkor on two wheels with Vespa AdventuresOur Angkor Tour is designed for those who seek a deeper connection, taking you beyond the crowded sites to experience the true spirit of this ancient wonder.

We begin by guiding our vintage Vespas onto quiet jungle trails and countryside backroads, offering a serene and intimate entry into the Angkor Archaeological Park. This exclusive route allows you to appreciate the scale and beauty of the complex from a local's perspective, passing through the grand gates of Angkor Thom and along shaded paths few travelers see.

The tour brings you face-to-face with history at the park's most iconic temples: the majestic Angkor Wat, the enigmatic Bayon, and the captivating Ta Prohm. We balance these must-see landmarks with visits to hidden, lesser-known ruins, providing a comprehensive and personal exploration of Khmer heritage.

Connecting past and present, we ride through peaceful local villages, offering a glimpse into contemporary Cambodian life amidst the ancient setting. The journey culminates with an authentic Khmer lunch in a beautiful outdoor location - a perfect moment to reflect on your discoveries before we return you to Siem Reap, filled with memories that transcend typical temple tours.

Itinerary

Discover Angkor's hidden side on vintage Vespas, navigating serene jungle trails and rural paths away from the main tourist routes. This unique approach lets you experience the quiet majesty of the Archaeological Park as you glide under forest canopies and along ancient causeways, feeling the tranquility that existed long before the modern crowds arrived.

Stand in awe at iconic sites like Angkor Wat and Ta Prohm, then uncover the stories of secluded, lesser-known ruins for a fuller historical journey. We guide you through both the world-renowned marvels and the intimate, overgrown temples where you can appreciate the intricate carvings and peaceful atmosphere without distraction, creating a complete narrative of the Khmer Empire.

Go beyond the ancient stones to experience present-day Cambodia, riding through tranquil villages where daily life unfolds amidst the timeless landscape. Witness farmers tending rice fields, children playing near weathered stupas, and artisans practicing traditional crafts - a living contrast that shows how Khmer culture continues to thrive in the shadow of its glorious past.

Savor a delicious, traditional Cambodian lunch in a peaceful, scenic setting, completing your sensory immersion into local culture. Enjoy fragrant fish amok, fresh spring rolls, and other regional specialties while relaxing in a garden or pavilion, reflecting on your morning's discoveries through both history and flavor.
