Great tour by Pal and Yent . Having Pal with is like having your own personal professional photographer. Extensive knowledge about the various ruins. The ice cold water and cold compresses much appreciated after each excursion.

 Verified Great service and guided tour
Our guided tour with Samneang was nothing more than excellent. He guided us to the best spots to look for the sunrise or to avoid crowds. He was also very thoughtful with our 9 yers old daughter, and gave us really great background for the Angkor Wat history, the country’s history and even Hindu and Buddhism. We would definitely recommend him and his company for any plans that you would like to accomplish while staying in Siem Reap.

Unforgettable 2 days with Mr. Bun. It was a real treat hearing fascinating stories about AngkorWat temples the historical, cultural, and architectural heritage of Siem Reap, Highly recommend Mr. BUN and driver Mr. NORA for a magical customized tour! We had a fantastic start! The guide Mr. BUN and driver Mr. Nora were extremely good, very humble and helpful. Mr.Bun is such a warm personality and highly motivated guide (recommendable!). We truly enjoyed walking the four of us through the area. Chilled water bottles and menthol cool napkins were truly magic. The jaw dropping beautiful architectural heritage to walk in such a peaceful environment. Thank you Mr. BUN and Mr. NORA for the wonderful hospitality.

 Verified Highly recommended two days tour to Angkor Wat
We had a wonderful tour to the temples with tour guide Bun and driver Keal. We can highly recommend going on the two days tour, to see not only the amazing Angkor Wat Temple itself, but also other temples like Banteay Srei, built with pink sandstone including incredibly well preserved carvings. Bun told us all the stories we needed to get a fantastic experience of the beatiful and very interesting temples that we visited. Service was very good, with water always supplied and good AC i the bus.

 Verified Highlight of our holiday!
We had a really fantastic trip! Sam our guide was so knowledgeable - he told us everything we could possibly have wanted to know about the temples and their history and context, but also about Khmer culture and modern history. His English was also amazing! It was just brilliant - every time we returned to the coach we had fresh water and refreshing towels so the heat was very manageable. We were fortunate to see an amazing sunrise too. All in all, the trip was everything we were hoping it would be and more. Thank you!

The view of the sunrise is very beautiful. I have to ride the car into the cold areas of trees and I have to walk on the rainbow bridge, but its too hot.

 Verified Atemberaubend und informativ
Unser Tourguide Sok Chea war einfach super! Er hatte nicht nur fundiertes Wissen über die Geschichte von Ankor Wat, die verschiedenen Religionen, sondern auch spannende Informationen zur politischen und wirtschaftlichen Lage Kambodschas. Die Tempelanlage ist einfach überwältigend! Absolut empfehlenswerte Tour, um die zentralsten Sehenswürdigkeiten zu genießen.
