        Angkor Wat sunrise and other temples.
        We had an amazing and informative trip with our guide SE. Seeing these ancient temples is an absolute must when visiting the Siem Reap area, and having such a knowledgeable guide undoubtedly heightens the experience. Absolutely worth the extra expense.

        Floating Village
        I recently had the pleasure of going on a tour led by Meng, his friendly humor made the entire experience enjoyable and engaging, creating a relaxed atmosphere that made the tour even more memorable. His deep knowledge of the area was evident throughout, as he provided insightful details and interesting anecdotes that truly enriched the trip. His expertise and engaging personality make him stand out in the best possible way.

        Excellent tour of Angkor Wat and other temples with Sa our tour guide!
        This was our first time in Cambodia and we came specifically to see Angkor Wat. We’re so happy we booked this tour and was able to see Angkor Wat and more temples! Our guide was Sa, and we had a wonderful time with him as our tour guide! He picked us up on time in a very clean car with very nice ac. He had cold refreshing bottles of water for us which was great since the day was very hot. He got us a top notch viewing spot for the sunrise over Angkor Wat and then taught us a lot about the history, architecture, and art depictions of all the temples we saw. He was very nice and also took such amazing pictures of us! We highly recommend Sa as a tour guide and would come back again for another tour! Thank you, Sa!

        Se was an excellent guide for our sunrise Angkor Wat experience. His knowledge was very impressive regarding the 3 temples he showed us. Explaining the history of these temples, how they were build and how they are being restored/preserved. We would highly recommend Se for any guided tour.

        Great afternoon tour with Jack
        Our trip with Jack, and driver Mr James bond, was incredible! Jack was such an informative guide and gave us a lot of background information. We saw a local food market, followed by the floating village which was amazing. We met some locals too including some sweet kids. The additional forest rowing boat trip is a nice way to contribute to the locals. We also really enjoyed viewing the sunset from the boat on the way back!

      This tour is perfect if you want to visit the must-see temples near Siem Reap. Mr Sen was our guide and he was fantastic - super knowledgeable about the temples themselves as well as Cambodia's history as a whole - I learned so much!

      The early start is worth it to get a few hours in during the cooler part of the day, and my pickup was perfectly on time, which was really appreciated (rather than having an hour long window of waiting around, the company let me know a pick up time in advance).

      I had thought about trying to do the tour myself using a tuk tuk, but am so glad I opted to have a guided tour as the amount I learned, as well as Mr Sen's tips on where to get the best photos, was invaluable. I also really appreciate that if you're a solo traveler you don't get charged the price of two people (which is common with some of the other tour companies I saw in Siem Reap).

      I visited in January 2022 and the temples themselves were fairly quiet, which was nice as you aren't pushing for a spot for those sunrise snaps. I would highly recommend visiting Cambodia, and Siem Reap, this year, and doing this tour if you make it there!

      Sen, thank you for your company, kindness, and sense of humour. Wishing you all the very best for a busy 2022!

      Vuthy (also known as Mr. T) was the most knowledgeable, kind, and funny tour guide. He picked me up promptly at 4:45 as promised and since I was extremely lucky to have a private tour, we headed straight to the temples. Vuthy knew all the best spots for pictures and took plenty so I will be able to cherish these memories forever. It was not very crowded due to COVID, but Vuthy still knew where to go and in which order to avoid the crowds. He shared important history throughout the tour and answered all of my questions. After viewing all four temples, he took me to get lunch at a Cambodian restaurant outside of the Angkor area so the prices would be cheaper and then dropped me off at my hotel before 1:00. I can't say enough about this tour and Vuthy and would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to tour these temples.

      The tour was great with Mr Sen and Kim. Sen took us to the Angkor Wat temple through the back route and we manage to get some nice pics on the pod with reflection and also get in the temple very early ahead of most tourists. Plenty of water was provides. The group was 5 people in total and we have returned back to out hotels by 12:30. We also had a stop at a “local” restaurant a bit pricey though. Definitely recommend this tour!

      This was cheap, fun, efficient, and most importantly, visiting Angkor Wat during sunrise was the best experience I’ve had in Southeast Asia so far. Sunrise especially was beautiful—must do in Cambodia. We had a very friendly and helpful tour guide (Mr. T) who spoke English well and helped guide us through Angkor Wat and the nearby temples. He gave us a great overview of the history, inspiration, architecture, and other details of the temples on the tour and was also very funny and great to talk to. The group organized pickup from our hostel and led us to the ticket pass station, to the different temples, as well as a local restaurant to grab some tasty food and drinks. Overall awesome experience.

      Our tour guide was Curly. Before entering each temple, he would give us some background about the temple, and along the way he would tell us more. He also pointed out places with excellent photo opportunities, took beautiful photos for us and taught us camera tricks to capture some unique shots. He’s young and humorous and shared some interesting stories and jokes and made us laugh. He even bought us local snacks to try outside Angkor Wat and it was delicious. After the last temple, he gave us a bit of time to take photos at the beautiful Srah Srang reservoir just opposite Banteay Kdei. Don’t think the snack and Srah Srang is part of the tour, and really appreciate this little extra he did. The food near Ta Keo where we had brunch was not nice and quite expensive though.

      I am very glad that I got the opportunity to take this tour with Vuthy (aka Mr T) and driver James Bond. Mr T was incredibly detailed when describing all of the temples, his backstory, as well as some of the history of Siem Reap and Cambodia. His sense of humour was wonderful, and he made it really easy to stay engaged throughout the tour, even with the early morning start at 4:30am. I would highly recommend to do this sunrise experience, as it gives a great view of the sunrise at the iconic Angkor Wat. Although busy for sunrise, Mr T ensured that we were with minimal crowds afterward for a very personalized experience. All 4 temples that we saw were very different and unique, with interesting backstories that I wouldn’t have known if I did a self-guided tour. The plentiful ice cold water bottles on the air conditioned tour bus made this tour a great way to explore Angkor Wat while lessening the intense heat. The food at the restaurant we went to for lunch was a little more expensive than the average, but the food quality was excellent.

      Noy was the best tour guide I’ve ever had! On top of being very funny and making sure the group stuck together he was one of the most educational tour guides I heard giving a tour in Angkor Wat. He had detailed information not just on the temples but on the actual history on Hinduism and Buddhism. He explained everything in an educational funny way and made the trip enjoyable for everybody. He made sure the group stuck together and when I fell asleep on the steps for the sunrise he made sure to wake me up. I would recommend him to anybody looking for a great guide. He was passionate about what he does and I think that’s what made it so enjoyable. Because he is enjoying what he is doing and made it much more enjoyable for everyone else as well. Also, he made sure to avoid the large crowds and take us in the back entrances of all the temples. He knew all the best routes and ways to go to avoid all the crowds but we still got all the best pictures.

      Thank you Noy for an amazing day and I hope to see you again!

      I would also highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a great way to spend the day while also not spending an arm and a leg on a private tour guide. The small group was PERFECT.

      Vuthy (our guide) was excellent! He was equal parts knowledgeable and funny! And let's not forget our amazing driver, James Bond. Vuthy was a great guide and an even better photographer - taking us to picture perfect spots and taking photos of us.

      We saw a range of temples - each with its own unique personality. Bayon temple was my fave but Angkor Wat and Ta Prohm (tomb raider temple) were really cool as well.

      We were provided with water all day and we're taken to a local restaurant for well priced food.

      Sunrise tour was beautiful and we finished in early afternoon before the sun became unbearable.

      Highly recommend!!

      I booked onto this tour as a last minute idea and I'm so glad I did. It is an early start but it is so much better, the weather is cooler and the big tour buses hadn't arrived so got great photos without other people or there selfie sticks in them. All credit goes to Mr T, our tour guide and James bond our driver. Had so much knowledge about all the temples and funny stories too and James bond was ready with cold water and face wipes to cool us down after each temple. I have had the best day and it's just the right amount of time to enjoy the day without getting overwhelmed. Thank you so much to everyone involved, it really is a great tour to see the temples.

      While our guide was great as was our driver.
      I was quite upset with the price we paid.
      We paid $80 AUD each for the small group tour of Angkor Wat which we were then told didn’t include admission cost ($55 AUD) or food. We essentially paid $160 for 15 mins of transport and guide for the morning.
      The local tuk tuk drivers will drive you and be your guide for $15 per tuk tuk?!

      I understand tourism is recovering from covid but trying to overcharge tourists won’t encourage me to come back or recommend this tour to anyone. I felt like I was paying for a full group to make up for the lack of tourists.
