Cooking Class
Feeling inspired by the tasty Khmer specialties, Kroya by Chef Chanrith has commenced cooking classes to bring their guests closer to the secrets of the Cambodian cuisine. Traditional Khmer cuisine is one of detail. Small amounts of ingredients with intriguing textures, complex aromas and fresh exhilarating flavours create a distinctly light, delicate and healthy cuisine. Rice is an important component of Khmer culture, and is served alongside fish and shell fish, both fresh from the Mekong and Tonle Sap rivers. All dishes are freshly cooked daily. A typical meal of traditional Khmer cuisine consists of a soup, salad, fish course, meat dish, vegetables and rice. Delicious sauces and condiments are served with the meal to add extra flavor and spice. Desserts are often based on fresh fruits and coconut creating a sweet end to the meal. Cooking class starts with a morning visit to one of the old markets, also known as the Psa Chas. Their Executive Chef will guide you through the market and teach you more about the local produce and herbs for the class. Ingredients that are typically used in Khmer cooking include turmeric, kafir lime leaves, ginger, lemongrass, dried chilli and galangal. Following the visit to the market, guests will return to the hotel and start the class in a private space within Kroya. Each participant will receive this cook book featuring the four traditional Khmer dishes that will be created during the class. Dishes include mango salad, fish amok, beef sour soup and sticky rice dumplings. Once the meal has been prepped and cooked under the careful guidance of the Executive Chef, these delicious dishes will be enjoyed for lunch.

Explore the awesome temples of Angkor, including Angkor Wat, the world’s largest sacred building and an architectural masterpiece. Enter the southern Gate of Angkor Thom, to visit Prasat Bayon, temple of the enigmatic stone face towers, before visiting the 350 meter long 'Terrace of the Elephants' and the mysterious 'Terrace of the Leper King.’ 


Small Tour with Sunrise
Your adventure begins with a pre-dawn departure from the hotel for the magnificent sunrise experience at Angkor Wat. Enter through the secluded and little visited Eastern gate of the great temple, creep through the forest in darkness (please bring a torch) and enjoy a private moment as you gaze in awe at the silhouetted main spires, and longest stretch of bas-relief carvings in the world, before soaking up the atmosphere of dawn at Angkor from the edge of one of the ancient library pools. Spend the whole day exploring the awesome temples of Angkor, including Angkor Wat. Enter the southern Gate of Angkor Thom, to visit Prasat Bayon, temple of the enigmatic stone face towers, before visiting the 350 meter long 'Terrace of the Elephants' and the mysterious 'Terrace of the Leper King. After lunch, visit the jungle-enveloped Ta Prohm – one of the most atmospheric of all temples in Angkor and a renowned movie set. From here head to Banteay Kdey Temple a Citadel of Chambers, returning to the hotel late afternoon, after a long but fulfilling day.


Grand Tour
The Grand Tour is actually an extension of the Small Circuit and runs through Preah Khan, Preah Neak Pean to the Eastern Mebon and other temple monuments of Ta Som & Pre Rup. The Grand Circuit complex showcases the rich and sophisticated architecture of Khmer Empire. The best thing about the Grand Tour circuit temples is that it is slightly off the beaten track and thus quieter. The scenery is breath taking and every corner of the temples are a photographers dream!  Preah Khan built in the 12th century was one of Jayavarman VII’s largest projects dedicated to his father. The temple was built as much more than a temple as it was the education center for over 1,000 teachers, it appears also to have been a Buddhist university as well as a considerable city. Neak Poan was built to represent a paradisiacal Himalayan Mountain lake. East Mebon was guarded at its corners by stone figures of harnessed elephants, some of which are still in a reasonable state of preservation. Heading to Prasat East Mebon, a majestic 10th Century temple,  the tour then continues to Prasat Prerub, a Hindu temple at Angkor, built as the state temple of Khmer King Rajendravarman and completed in 961. This temple is constructed of combined brick, laterite and sandstone. Ta Som built at end of the 12th century for King Jayavarman VII. It is located north east of Angkor Thom city.


Boeng Mealea & Banteay Srei
A two hour drive from Siem Reap, stands Boeng Mealea almost forgotten in the jungle, crumbling and covered in sprawling tree roots. It is the largest temple outside the main Angkor complex and is enclosed by an enormous moat. You spend the morning at Boeng Mealea, then journey the 1.5 hours to the intricately carved and well-preserved Ban- teay Srei and have a restaurant lunch on arrival. The detailed reliefs on this smaller sandstone structure are regarded as the finest, most skillfully crafted in Cambodia. Return to your hotel late afternoon.
