Morning light strips the dust from cracked sandstone and threads through the canopy as a private car rolls east from Siem Reap toward ancient stone and empty courtyards. The air smells of dry earth and diesel; temple stones loom, some softened by roots that have quietly taken up residence in lintels and doorways. This day-long private tour covers two very different archaeological complexes: the vast, remote Preah Khan Kompong Svay—an expansive Angkorian enclosure dating to the late 12th century—and the pre-Angkorian clusters at Sambor Prei Kuk, whose 7th-century towers predate the Khmer Empire.

Preah Khan Kompong Svay expanded in the late 12th century during the Angkorian era; Sambor Prei Kuk predates Angkor (6th–7th century) and served as the Chenla kingdom’s capital, influencing later Khmer styles.
Both sites are subject to conservation and limited restoration; visitors should avoid climbing fragile carvings, follow paths, and carry out waste to reduce impact.
