A bucket list experience - Visiting this World Heritage site did not disappoint. While it was quite crowded even at sunrise (we happened to be there on the equinox), it was a worthwhile and gratifying experience. Making it all the better was our tour guide, Samnang. He was one of the best guides we had on our entire vacation, very knowledgeable about the site, Khmer history, etc. We also visited 3 other temples on this tour (including Ta Prohm, where Tomb Raider was filmed), which was a great bonus. Bottomline, Samnang made the day! And from temple to temple, his driver (Mr. Bo) provided cold towels and cold water after each stop. Much needed when the heat and humidity is really high. One thing we should have been made aware of upon booking this tour, however, is that the entrance ticket into the ruins is not included - an additional $80 or so.

Incredible guided tour of Angkor Wat and 3 other temples! - Rey & Caea guided us on an amazing journey through the sacred spaces of Angkor Wat and other temples in the area. Rey filled our minds and hearts with relevant and insightful depth in the details of the temples and those who built them and those who worshipped in them. We cannot recommend Rey and our driver caea strongly enough. Enlist them in your unforgettable tour and you will be glad you did!

Great tour with our guide Vathana! - We had a great day out on this tour! Vathana was an excellent guide - very knowledgeable & approachable and was able to answer any questions we had. He was very patient with me explaining when I would need to cover my knees/shoulders as my outfit wasn't appropriate for the temple visits. He is also great with the camera and always offered to take pictures! We had ample time in each temple and were able to move on to the next stop when we pleased, we were lucky our group only consisted of 6 people. Would highly recommend!

Angkor Wat sunrise - Huot was a very good guide. Got us to the points with the best photo opportunities for the time of day. The sunrise was stunning over Angkor Wat. He was knowledgeable and directed us around the temples so we could avoid the crowds which made the visits more pleasant.

Top experience - We did the sunrise tour covering four temples. The whole experience was amazing, and I cannot recommend it enough! All the temples are beautiful, each in its own unique way. Our tour guide, Sa, was exceptional, providing us with the best spots and timing for the perfect photos of the sunrise over Angkor Wat and other stunning sights. We also learned a lot about Khmer history. Great job, Sa!
