Most impressive historical site in the world - What can I say… just breathtaking. Maybe the most impressive historia site I have seen. Especially when coming there early morning, we were there for sunrise. A lot of people of course but no wonder since it is a world wonder! The place is massive so even if there are a lot of people you don’t feel cramped.

Very Professional - My friend and I were very happy we booked this tour. It made our trip convenient and more enjoyable. The team was very professional and made sure our visit was pleasant. Mr. John, our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the temples and his command of English is excellent. He would gladly take our pictures and always tells us the best spot for photo ops. They even provide us with some cold bottled water and wet tissue every after each temple tour! Thank you for a great sightseeing and culture experience. ;)
