We had a great time with Jimmy today despite the really hot and humid weather at this time of the year. Our driver Sreang kept up a steady supply of ice cold water and cool towels between temples. Jimmy was very knowledgeable and maintained a very comfortable pace. We never felt rushed at any time. Both Jimmy and Sreang were always smiling and cheerful throughout the tour. We would definitely recommend this tour.
Vanna was the best! He was knowledgeable and thorough. He spoke to me on my level and took me to places where I was the only visitor. Would definitely recommend.
This was without doubt an amazing visit. It was a long day, 8am til 7pm but worth every minute. Clearly Angkor Wat is the main attraction but the other temples are atmospheric too. Our guide was Bun and the driver was Sreang. Bun was a fountain of amazing knowledge and a whiz with the iPhone too and Sreang kept us hydrated on a stifling hot day. We visited inky a fraction of the temples and also had a beautiful lunch at The Palmboo Restaurant. To round the day off a wonderful sunset viewed from Phnom Bakheng Temple. Massive thanks to Bun and Sreang who we can’t rate highly enough.. This is a must do experience.
We went for the private tour and our guide Jimmy was amazing, he was so passionate and Very knowledgeable with the temples, also spoke very good English. Our driver Mr hui was very safe and always made sure we had a cold water and towel when we got back to the car. We saw 11 temples in a day. The temples themselves are incredible. A must see. Thanks again Jimmy and Mr hui.

Pal Saruon was excellent! He led us through three temples and explained everything! He answered all questions with a smile and made sure we we all comfortable and having a great time! Thanks for the great day Pal!!
We had a great time. Ask for Pal Saruon. He was very knowledgeable, speaks very good English, and helped us take lots of fun pictures. They also provided plenty of cold water throughout the day.
Spent a great day with Pal Saroun who did a great job. He was very knowledgeable and took some super fun pictures. It was nice to know where to go and learn a little bit about the temples.
