Angkor Temples

[Tyrov]

Took an ultralight flight over the Angkor temples. Clouds rolled in so had to detour but got to go over some of the structures. Can't actually go over Angkor Wat as it is very close to the airport.
Great way to see the temples. I totally recommend it.

It's not a glider, it's an ultralight. It is powered by an engine in the back.

Around 100 USD for an hour. That was last year. You will have to contact them for current pricing.
