Angkor Wat is bucket list!!!! - Thanks to our tour guide Vanna and our driver Hay! We had such an amazing time on our tour. Vanna was such a knowledgeable guide. I can't believe how much info he knew about the temples. We saw so much and he got amazing photos for us. So thankful for the amazing videos and photos we got. After doing this tour with Vanna and Hay, we knew for sure we made the right choice. It's a much better experience with a tour guide. We couldn't have done it without them! Thanks again Vanna and Hay!

Great Experience Touring Temples in Siem Reap - Did a two-day tour of Angkor Wat and other temples. Our guide Sam was funny, informative, and attentive to our groups needs. As others have mentioned, Sam also seems to know every good photo spot within the temples, which was fun. The van and driver we arranged were also great. Pat was an excellent and safe driver who was always ready with the air-conditioned van, ice cold water and cold washcloths, all of which were a welcome reprieve from the June heat. Overall a great and memorable experience.

One of the best tours I ever had - The guide was very friendly and was mindful of us and the driver would give us fresh cold towels and cold water in between car rides. The guide knew a lot of things about the temple and told a bunch of interesting stories about the temples that I really enjoy. This was one of my favorites tours by far and was quite impressed.

Professional archaeologist guide who tailored completely to us - I strongly recommend our guide, Mr. Niem Sokhem — he majored in archaeology and worked as a professional archaeologist at Angkor and at other sites for many years before becoming a guide, so his knowledge was really second-to-none! He completely tailored the itinerary for our interests… for example, we were very interested in some of the meanings behind many carvings, the Hindu mythology, the Buddhist philosophy, etc. and he answered all of our questions. Our driver was also delightful — I don’t know if you’ve ever experienced heat like they have there, but we ended up being deeply grateful for the air conditioned car, ice cold water, and refreshing cold towels he gave us after every temple. Highly highly recommended - thank you Niem Sokhem for sharing your expertise with us!

A dream come true - Our guide, Chai and our driver, Sreein, were a great team. We learned so much about all things Khmer. Angkor Wat and temples have long been a dream of ours to visit and exceeded all hopes and expectation. We felt safe and welcomed by the warm people that we met along the way. I highly recommend this tour, this guide and driver and this amazing country!

Great tour, great guides - My guide Pal Saruon and driver Mr San was great. They picked me up right up on time. Water and wet towels were prepared for the long tour journey. Saruon gave great history lessons among all the stops and took plenty of photos. Mr San had water and wet towels after every stop ready for me. It was quite hot and humid, they were all very nice and welcoming. I highly recommend them.
