Experience Cambodia’s Lost Temples by Helicopter
For an unforgettable adventure, soar above the Cambodian landscape and explore ancient ruins. Our Sokha Helicopter tour offers a unique perspective, whisking you between magnificent temples in mere minutes.
Your journey begins at Siem Reap International Airport. We’ll fly northeast to the awe-inspiring Preah Vihear temple, perched dramatically on a mountain overlooking the Thai-Cambodian border. Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views before heading south to Koh Ker, the 10th-century capital. Explore the mighty Prasat Thom pyramid and numerous smaller structures within this fascinating, largely forgotten city. Our final stop is the expansive Preah Khan temple, featuring the iconic four-faced Bayon-style Prasat Preah Stung. The return flight to Siem Reap completes this full-day excursion (approximately 2.5 hours of flight time).
Alternatively, discover the temples of Angkor from above with shorter helicopter tours (up to 30 minutes). Enjoy breathtaking aerial views of Angkor Wat, Prasat Kravan, Pre Rup, the Eastern Mebon temples, and the unique floating villages and fish traps of Tonle Sap Lake. These tours depart from Siem Reap International Airport, near the Western Baray.

9 May 2024 ★★★★★Our 2-week trip to Thailand was fantastic! Chiang Mai felt completely magical and Koh Samui was beautiful. We managed to have fun even on the rainy days. Our guides were perfect, very knowledgeable and a lot of fun, with great insights into the local culture. I've been recommending Absolute Asia Tours to all my friends and I can't wait to travel with you guys again! The coordination of everything was very well done.

22 May 2024 ★★★★★Our recent trip to China and Mongolia was a great success. Overall we found Absolute Asia Tours services to be excellent throughout the two weeks we were in Asia. For us, Mongolia was definitely the highlight. We thoroughly enjoyed or local guides and drives and they were unfailingly knowledgeable, helpful and amusing. Their languages skills were excellent and we felt that we recieved real insight into this fascinating country. We were intinially drawn to the idea of this trip by the reports of the world class fihing and we were absolutely not disappointed. The fishing guide was first rate and we caught more fish than we could have hoped for - more than 25 each day - with the added bonus of being the only other people in sight for miles arround. AAT created a private ger camp for us on the Onon River and we enjoyed delicious food prepared by our chef in a beautiful unspoled atmosphere. They alo arranged for us to visit a nomadic family and spend time with them at home and organized a dinner with an anthropologist with expert knowledge of the region. AAT fullfilled their promise to tkae us to us to one of the world's best fishing destinations in comfort and style. We would be happy to travel with AAT again and will definitely recommend them to our friends.

17 January 2024 ★★★★★Absolute Asia tours gave us a wonderful tour of Southeast Asia (working with sister-agency My Way Travel based in Vietnam). For our Siem Reap/Angkor Wat journey, our party of two had a private driver and guide named Jak, who was a cheerful and knowledgeable companion, explaining the history, culture, architecture and religious significance of the sites while keeping it always fun. We moved efficiently from site to site, and finished with a boat tour of the fishing village on stilts at Kampong Pluk on the Tonle Sap Lake. During most of our trip we stayed at top-notch locally-owned hotels, but in Siem Reap we were at the excellent local Hyatt hotel. Absolute Asia and My Way Travel our outstanding local providers, less expensive than name-brand group tours, and customized to our interests and schedule.
