The following day for $15US he drove me around the main sites of Angkor Wat, Bayon and Ta Prohm..both trips were full days and I walked around each site and met up with the driver at an appointed spot. The 3 day pass was $40 US and only took a few minutes getting the photo and pass done at the new facility on our way out to our first site.
