As the best-preserved temple at the site, it is the only one to have remained a significant religious centre since its foundation. We will enter the great temple from the little-visited eastern side. We continue our journey on foot and creep through a jungle path to the North ancient library pool. Listen to the explanations of your expert guide, then spend time venturing into the central chambers of the temple, where your local guide will reveal the history, myths and stories depicted on the stone bas-reliefs (the longest stretch of bas-relief carvings in the world) then you will venture deep into the central chambers of this truly great temple. Your knowledgeable guide will ensure that your visit to Angkor Wat leaves you with a rich understanding of the history and purpose of the great temple, and also of the mighty Angkorian civilisation.

You gotta do this! - Couldn't have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend. My wife accidentally lost her wallet, and they helped us get it back! It took an extra hour, but they took us to the police where it had already been turned in! It left us behind schedule spending that extra hour. I felt sure we would miss out on part of the tour as a result, but no. The tour was resumed without being rushed, and even after spending an extra hour , every effort was made to happily show us everything. They would even offer to turn around if we passed a street vendor offering something we had never tried after all that. The sweet rice in bamboo is good. ;) Highest recommendation possible!

Great family experience - I enjoyed seeing Angkor Wat and the guide made it enjoyable for my whole family. My children really enjoyed exploring the Bayon and Ta Prohm. Travelling in a tuk tuk was a lot of fun. Being in the open air helped cool us down when it was hot outside. The guide Phath was informative and funny and really helped us to understand the history of the area. We were there just between Christmas and New Year and Siem Reap was very busy. I'm told it's quieter with less people outside that time, so it might be better to visit in a quieter period.
