Cambodia’s ancient Khmer temples at Angkor represent one of the most impressive and well-preserved ancient sites in the world. And even though they’ve survived for centuries, Cambodia’s political stability and the construction of the high-end Grand Hotel d’Angkor make now the best time to see them in person. This addition to our Vietnam trip dedicates nearly three full days to exploring the temples—and you’ll need them all to fully appreciate these incredible man-made wonders.

• The Cambodia Post-Trip is an add-on to our Vietnam Biking trip. Read more about this trip here.
