Overview
Quick answer: The 2-day private Angkor tour covers Angkor Wat at sunrise, Bayon and Ta Prohm on day one, then your choice on day two: Banteay Srei and Kbal Spean, the Grand Circuit with a Bakheng sunset, or Kampong Phluk floating village. Choose an air-conditioned car (Lexus SUV), minivan or tuk-tuk. Private tours start at $160 per group for both days, and the Angkor Pass is separate.
Two days is the sweet spot for many first-time visitors: enough time to see Angkor’s highlights at a calm pace, plus one experience beyond the main temples. Day one is the classic circuit, starting with sunrise at Angkor Wat, a visit to a local market (breakfast there is optional and not included), then the Bayon and Ta Prohm, with the afternoon free to rest.
Day two is yours to choose from three options, and you can decide when you book or tell Tivorn the evening before. Your guide, Tivorn, a licensed local guide, stays with you both days, and because the tour is private you set the pace. For two days of temples, a 3-day Angkor Pass costs less than two 1-day passes and stays valid for any three days within seven days.

Frequently Asked Questions
Two days covers the highlights and one off-the-beaten-path option comfortably. Add a third day for Koh Ker or Phnom Kulen.
If day two is inside the temple area or at Banteay Srei, the 3-day pass at US$62 is the better value: it beats two 1-day passes (US$74) and is valid for any 3 days within 7 days, so a rest day in between is fine. If day two is the floating village, a 1-day pass at US$37 is enough. See our Angkor Wat sunrise guide for how to buy online.
Yes, if you tell Tivorn the evening before, because the private format is flexible.
Yes, as a day 3 or in place of day 2. See our Koh Ker and Beng Mealea day trip and Phnom Kulen waterfall tour. Each has its own ticket: Koh Ker US$15 per person and Phnom Kulen US$20 per person.
No. We stop at local places chosen for the route, and lunch is paid on the day.
Yes. You travel only with your own group, with your own guide and vehicle, and you set the pace together.
The Lexus SUV, an air-conditioned car, suits most couples, families and groups of up to 4. The minivan suits bigger groups. A tuk-tuk is a classic way to see the temples on day one, but it is open-air and slower, so ask Tivorn before choosing it for a day-two option farther out. Tell Tivorn your group size and he will recommend the best fit.
Cover your shoulders and knees at the temples, wear light fabrics and a hat, and bring closed or sturdy sandals. Add a light layer for the early start on day one.
