Enjoy gliding gently along centuries of history, as the sun sets over the Angkor complex, on board a Khmer traditional boat service located by the South Gate of Angkor Thom on a small Baray while enjoying champagne and a variety of canapés. As the day's temple visits wind down, a different pace takes over on this late afternoon gondola tour along the moat encircling Angkor Thom. Board your own Kongkear Angkor, a traditional Khmer boat, at the embarkation point by Prasat Chrung. Glide gently past the Great Wall of Angkor Thom, the Royal Secret Path and the City Guard Post, taking in views rarely seen from the temples themselves, while champagne and canapes are served on board. Watch the sunset from the water near Prasat Chrung temple before returning to your hotel by around 5:30pm. Each boat seats two to four passengers, with a champagne service scaled to your group size. A short, romantic close to a day at Angkor, best paired with an earlier full day of temple exploration.

    <p>It was a decent boat ride with a small bottle of champagne. I definitely wouldn't pay this price to do this again, but we got some gorgeous pictures of the Siem Reap Sunset so no complaints.</p>

    Sunset Gondola Tour of Angkor Thom with Champagne: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Siem Reap.

    How much does Sunset Gondola Tour of Angkor Thom with Champagne cost?

    +

    Prices start at $71 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Siem Reap usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Sunset Gondola Tour of Angkor Thom with Champagne take?

    +

    Plan for about 1 hour from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Siem Reap is not rushed.

    Is Sunset Gondola Tour of Angkor Thom with Champagne worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 48 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (3/5 across 2 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Siem Reap, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Sunset Gondola Tour of Angkor Thom with Champagne?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Sunset Gondola Tour of Angkor Thom with Champagne suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Sunset Gondola Tour of Angkor Thom with Champagne?

    +

    Around 1 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Siem Reap can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Siem Reap and add a light layer if any part of the 1-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Sunset Gondola Tour of Angkor Thom with Champagne start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Siem Reap within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Siem Reap?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Siem Reap experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kampong Phluk Floating Village Tour by Boat, Angkor Wat Sunrise or Sunset Tour with Guide from Siem Reap, Angkor Wat Sunrise & 3 Main Temples – Small Group. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Siem Reap?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Siem Reap?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Sunset Gondola Tour of Angkor Thom with Champagne?

    +

    Included: Champagne and canapes on board the gondola; All applicable taxes and service charges; Transportation by car / mini-van / coach with professional driver; and A one-hour gondola tour (afternoon only) with a professional English-speaking guide. Not included: Entrance pass into the Angkor Archaeological Site (1 day pass US$ 37 per person); Personal expenses such as meals, drinks, tips and gratuities, shopping, portage fees; Transfers from and to hotels and resorts that are located outside of the city center are N; and Admission fees.

    Does Sunset Gondola Tour of Angkor Thom with Champagne include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 200 listed pickup locations in and around Siem Reap. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Sunset Gondola Tour of Angkor Thom with Champagne offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Sunset Gondola Tour of Angkor Thom with Champagne?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Sunset Gondola Tour of Angkor Thom with Champagne if the weather is bad?
