Excellent sunrise tour to Angkor Wat - Breathtaking sunrise over Angkor Wat on the equinox. Friendly and approachable guide who was careful to show us all the intricate carvings and their significance in Hindu and Buddhist traditions. Loved the trees at Ta Phrom and learned about vertical Pano pictures! Would highly recommend and would like to come back and do the river kayaking to see Dolphins!
