Just back from this tour, absolutely recommend to make the most of your time. Mr Indiana Jones (Chanty) and Michael Jackson the driver were professional and informative. You will visit 4 temples with the comfort of air conditioning transport!
Mr T and our driver made our experience exceptional! We were provided lots of water and wet towels to make sure we survived the heat. Each temple we went to had such a unique factor that shapes Cambodia and our tour guide gave us so much impactful information that really made me remember each temple for their perks. The time schedule was perfect and very well organized— watching the sunrise at Angkor was so beautiful! Our breakfast was amazing as well and some of the best food I’ve had in Cambodia! The group size was great (around 14) and were filled with welcoming people, our tour guide also making sure to include everyone. Overall, would highly recommend for any family or person!

Very interesting history. Rith is very knowledgeable and helpful all the way to the end of the tour. The driver is very good giving us water every time we move from one place to the other. Amazing tour guide and driver.
We had a wonderful time here. Our guide was very kind and informative. Kept us entertained entire time dancing to kpop songs and rapping. Our tour guide name is Mr. Rith
A great selection of highlights at Angkor Wat and surrounding temples. Early morning was fantastic to see the sunrise and avoid the heat. Knowledgable & friendly tour guide! Thank you!
Mr. Si was an amazing tour guide! He made this experience unforgettable.
Tola was an excellent guide on the sunrise tour. He took time to explain about the three temples we visited, gave time for plenty photos and exploring on our own but also kept us on track so the day didn’t drag on. Tola always checked that everyone in our small group was coping with the heat and cold bottled water was available on the bus when required. I’d highly recommend booking the sunrise trip. Ask for Tola as your guide, you won’t be disappointed.
This tour was very good value for money. I think if you buy a 1 day ticket for anker wat it is definitely the best way to see the main site. AJ was a great tour guide. Very relaxed and friendly. We were always greeted at the bus with a cold bottle of water and aircon.
AJ provided an amazing tour! He gave amazing history of the temples with extremely interesting stories. I would 10/10 recommend a tour with AJ.
