Angkor Wat Archeological Park tour - As my sole reason for coming to Siem Reap was to see Angkor Wat and surrounding temples, I wanted a tour that really explained each site. This 2 day private tour really exceeded my expectations. My tour guide Bun was extremely knowledgeable about each site and explained the religious and historical aspects of each site, as well as research and restoration projects. We stopped at 5 temples the first day, with the incredible Banteay Srei (the pink temple) being my favorite. My driver Mao had cold drinks and towels waiting in the air conditioned van after each stop. We even spent a little time walking through a nearby village and trying palm cakes. On the second day we arrived at Angkor Wat early to see a beautiful sunrise. We finished the day by stopping at 3 more incredible sites. The private tour was well worth the price as we went at my pace . Bun speaks perfect English and was a pleasure to spend 2 days with touring this beautiful country. The company also responded almost immediately to my request.

Sunrise at Angkor Wat and a Knowledgeable Guide: Our Siem Reap Experience - We had a fantastic time with our guide Sam during our two-day private temple tour in Siem Reap. We experienced the sunrise at Angkor Wat, truly unforgettable :) Sam is very knowledgeable and explained everything to us about the history behind this magnificent place. He answered all our questions about the temples and Khmer culture in general. You could truly feel how much he enjoys being a guide and his passion for sharing this part of Khmer culture with the world. He also took great pictures of us and knows all the best spots in the temples. Highly recommended! :)

Even More Amazing With Sak At The Helm - This is one of the most interesting places on the planet and if you see it with our guide Sak (and driver Vichet), you'll get one of best experiences that I've had with many, many, tours, via Viator and others. There are several temples on each day of the tour, and only the first one (much smaller but with similar characteristics to Angkor Wat) looks anything like the others. Two amazing days done exactly as described in the listing (I easily made my 15:30 bus to Phnom Penh after day two), headlined of course, by that don't-you-dare-oversleep-it sunrise at Angkor Wat. I can't recommend this tour enough.

2 wonderful days - Great 2 days in Siem Reap! First day we saw 6 temples which were both unique and a short distance from our hotel. Both Sam and Bun were very good to us, with fresh chilled hand towels and cool water waiting inside the air conditioned car. Bun had a lot of knowledge of both temples and the history of Cambodia which enhanced our visit. The visits were well paced and we did not feel tired or rushed. Second day we saw Angkor Wat at dawn and several other fantastic temples, again with significant variety and lots of breathtaking photo opportunities. Pick up and drop off to our hotel was smooth. Highly recommended!

Excellent tour of select temples of Siem Reap including Angkor Wat - The 2 day tour of temples and Angkor Wat was excellent. Our tour guide Chhay was a wonderful host. He was charismatic and very knowledgeable. I learnt a lot from him about the temples and history, but also of the culture of the Cambodian people, through the various anecdotes and tidbits of information he shared with us. The transport was very comfortable, the driver transported us safely, and we had adequate breaks throughout the day. I recommend this tour if you are only staying in Siem Reap for a short time and would like to experience an informative tour.

Incredible and unforgettable experience! - I did the 2 day Temple tour with Bun and Dara. I felt like I instantly joined such a warm and welcoming family! It was such an amazing 2 days, and they both couldn’t have done more of a fabulous job. Bun knew so much about all of the history of the temples, and was keen to answer all of our questions. Dara was our driver on both days and was always so happy and smiley, providing us with cold towels and drinks on every stop. Bun went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time, and it was such a joy to chat to him over our 2 days. I’d highly recommend Journey Cambodia if you’re looking for a tour, and definitely do the 2 day one! You see so much more than Angkor Wat itself, and it is such a shame to not see all that Siem Reap has to offer! we saw so many incredible sights. Thank you so much to Bun and Dara! You made our trip feel so special <3
