Heli or Hot Air?

Must try either one!

HOT AIR

Located approximately 500 meters west of Angkor Wat, this stationary balloon offers panoramic views of Angkor, Siem Reap and the Barays. This helium balloon is tethered 200 meters above the ground, about 1 km from the entrance to Angkor Wat, on the road to the airport. The duration of a balloon ride is approximately 10 minutes, with maximum capacity of 30 people. Schedule: Rides run continuously from sunrise to sunset.

USD15 for 15mins. Only crap thing is it's tethered, though i wont know if i can hold my bladder if it was mobile.

Other people's experience: "Even though I'm afraid of heights I had to do it for the views and Angkor wat looks amazing from a few hundred feet up. A great experience, once the terror is overcome!!!!!"

HELICOPTER RIDE

8 minute scenic flight

This flight is highly recommended if you are a little pressed for time. You will see the wide, flat expanse of the plains and Tonle Sap Lake, with the town of Siem Reap spread below you. A slow turn takes you to the fringe of Angkor Wat temple area, with its rectangular moat clearly visible. The sophistication and extent of the architecture and civilization of the Angkor Kings can be truly appreciated from the air.

Flight Details: USD75 per person

Other people's experience: "Wonderful. Great views of the temple, town & lake."
