Angkor Wat Sunset Tour

Highlight

Angkor Wat – Walk inside the world’s largest temple. Old carvings tell stories on every wall. You’ll be amazed by how big it is!

Ta Prohm – Trees grow through temple walls here. This place was in famous movies. The mix of nature and old stones makes great photos.

Angkor Thom – This was once a king’s city. The stone gates are very tall. You’ll feel like you stepped back in time.

Bayon Temple – More than 200 stone faces look at you from every angle. They seem to smile at you. Take fun pictures with them!

Sunset at Phnom Bakheng – Watch the sun go down over all the temples. The light turns everything gold. It’s the perfect end to your day.

Comfortable Travel – Our vans have cool air inside. We give you cold water and cool towels. Our guides speak good English and know many facts.

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.

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.

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!

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.
