“Toller Tagesausflug. Dank meinem Guide Tola und unserem Fahrer hatte ich eine spannende Tagestour zum Weltkultuerbe von Kho Ker. Gute Gelegenheit auch die ländliche Seite von Kambodscha kennenzulernen. Da kommt ein wenig Indiane Jones Feeling auf. Bisher noch ein "Geheimtipp", da fast kaum andere Touristen vor Ort waren.”

2.Koh Ker and Beng Mealea Temples Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 293 reviews · 8 hours · from $50

Travel from Siem Reap to Beng Mealea and Koh Ker in a small group of up to 10. You will see jungle-covered ruins, Koh Ker’s seven-tiered Prasat Thom, tree-filled Prasat Pram, and smaller shrines with an English-speaking guide such as Kim, Tola, Nara, or Pheap.

“It really worth to go to these temples. That’s so beautiful. It’s far but it worth it. It’s less popular than Angkor. The Angkor way ticket goes for the Beng Mealea but you have to pay an extra ticket for Koh Ker. We were only 4 persons, we had a normal car, comfortable and almost private. I highly recommend it if you want to visit quiet place.”

“The trip was absolutely fantastic! The sites were amazing, almost no tourist. Preah Vihear is absolutely incredible! I thought Koh Ker was a little less impressive but still very much worth a visit. Our guide Narah was amazing, very knowlegable and passionate about these places and everything went great. The road takes you through cambodian countryside which is also a very interesting experience which i would not have seen otherwise. 10/10!”
