Definitely worth having a private tour and Jimmy was a wonderful guide. He shared interesting details about Ankor Wat as well as the historical context. He also knew the best spot to see the sunrise and avoid the crowds. Highly recommend the tour and Jimmy as the guide

Best tour guide and driver, ever! 10 STARS! Mr. Bun Hak and driver Sreang were amazing. Bun knew so much history and information and answered all of our questions. He knew exactly where to go to see the most fascinating sights and how to avoid huge crowds, especially in photos. Additionally he is an expert photographer and took incredible pictures with our phones. He was so good, other people noticed and asked him to please take their photo! We don't usually make photo books, but these photos are so good, we have to. Driver Sreang is an excellent driver, and had the AC on, ice cold water and ice cold washcloths for us after every stop. The van was very comfortable, as well. We have written their names in our travel book to recommend them to our friends and family. We are in our mid seventies and this was a big bucket list adventure. Thank you, Bun and Sreang for making this visit absolutely magical!
Mr. Hay (driver) and tour guide Bun arrived early which I really appreciated. Bun is incredibly knowledgeable of the history of Angkor Wat as well as Cambodia’s history. His English is good and he took us around the temples, taking us to photographic spots we would never have found. He volunteered to take our pictures and he captured the best angles. It was a very long day but worth it. We would have missed out on so much had we not taken this tour. Mr. Hay was an excellent driver, always opened the door for me and offered us wet towels and cold water. He was always ready to pick us up along our tour with the air conditioned car. I highly recommend biking the tour- you would miss out on so many aspects of the history and photo ops that you wouldn’t find on your own.
Really Good tour, Pip was a great guide, very friendly and engaging, he was very knowledgeable and took the time to explainwhat we were seeing
