Highlights
  • Angkor Wat - You´ll see one of the great cultural wonders of the world. Angkor Wat is the world’s largest religious structure, covering some 400 acres (160 hectares), and marks the high point of Khmer architecture.
    It was built in the first half of the 12th century (1113-1150)
    There is so much more to learn and discover about Angkor Wat.. jump into cambodian´s history with this private TukTuk Tour.
  • Bayon Temple - Bayon Temple is important for many reasons. It served as the first and only Buddhist temple constructed by the Angkor (Khmer) Empire. Additionally, its bas-reliefs depict important events like battles and pictures of everyday life, providing viewers with an idea of life in Cambodia during the 12th and 13th centuries.
    And there is so much more to explore …
  • Ta Keo - Ta Keo is the first temple built entirely in sandstone and as such serves as a milestone in Khmer history. Enormous blocks of stone were cut to a regular size and placed in position. Incredible human architecture!
  • Ta Prohm Temple - Built from 1186 and originally known as Rajavihara (Monastery of the King), Ta Prohm was a Buddhist temple dedicated to the mother of Jayavarman VII. See with your own eyes, how nature reclaims the temples.
  • Banteay Kdei - Considered by many to be the jewel in the crown of Angkorian art, Banteay Srei is cut from stone of a pinkish hue and includes some of the finest stone carving anywhere on earth. Begun in 967 CE, it is one of the smallest sites at Angkor, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in stature.

Superb tour with a genuinely nice guy looking after you. - Geko is a great person to take you anywhere! He is super friendly and helpful and acts as your personal photographer as well. Whilst he claims not to be a tour guide, he really knows his stuff and keeps you informed as you go from site to site. When I return to Siemens Reap I will be contacting Geko for all of my trips.

Fantastic tour. - This tour was the highlight of our holiday. Geko was very knowledgeable he ensured we avoided crowds and made our whole tour feel personal rather than being led around with heaps of other people. He took many amazing photographs for us and generally just made our experience fantastic. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Ankor Wat is a amazing place to visit, main reason I visited Cambodia, didn’t disappoint - Geko is delightful person, made contact with me after booking the tour on Booking.com. Originally planned 08:00 pickup, I requested to change the timing to 04:45, immediately accommodated my request, picked me up on time, very knowledgeable, knows the best picture spots, also became my personal photographer to the day, the cold towels and water was added bonus, much needed for the hot weather, highly recommended him.

A Guardian Angel for Angkor Wat - Geko was our Guardian Angel. He greeted us (2 elderly women) with a huge smile and bottles of ice cold water. We could not have asked for a more caring, considerate and exceptionally knowledgeable tuk tuk driver and guide. At each stage of our tour, he ensured we had time to rest and assisted us continuously with navigating some difficult steps. Furthermore, there were cold flannels given to us at various points. As for him photography skills, they exceeded our expectations. Nothing was too much trouble and he took many photos for us. When I mentioned wanting coconut water instead of lunch, Geko promptly went to secure these. I haven’t never encountered this high level of care from a patient driver and guide. We were so grateful to find such a wonderful person and have only praises and thanks for Geko. As we finished our tour early (too tired to visit and climb every temple), Geko offered to take us shopping or wait while I get a massage, we were exhausted to take advantage of his kindness. Geko also offers other services to and from the airport. I’m delighted to have been able to support locals like this genuinely lovely man. Geko is a must for anyone wanting to experience the highlights of Siem Reap. Thank you Geko for making our Angkor Wat trip such a memorable day.

Most Recommended - Best Tour Guide/Driver/Photographer! Don’t bother looking elsewhere - Book now! - Geko was the most wonderful, friendly, and welcoming individual we came across during our time here. Excellent English, extremely attentive throughout our trip, checking in often and felt safe at all times. He is an amazing driver, tour guide, super knowledgeable, and is a fantastic photographer all in one. He has an amazing above and beyond attitude, nothing is too much trouble, and provided plenty of ice cold water and cold flannels in the heat throughout the excursion. We can not recommend Geko highly enough, and only wished we had known before our trip how wonderful he is, as we 100% would have chosen to spend our time in Siem Reap with Geko rather than other tour companies (we had already booked in advance unfortunately).
