What To Expect
Angkor Wat
We begin with a pre-dawn departure (4.30 to 4.40 am depending on the time of year) from your hotel for sunrise outside Angkor Wat. Enter the great temple in darkness from the little-visited eastern side, and creep along hoary cloistered corridors past the longest stretch of bas-relief carvings in the world. Soak up the atmosphere of dawn at Angkor Wat, from the edge of one of the ancient library pools. We then explore the interior of the great temple, spending a thorough two hours discovering the corridors, central chambers and upper terraces of this truly great temple. Your expert local guide will decipher the myriad of stories behind the bas-relief carvings, and give you an insight into life during the height of the Khmer empire. We end our tour at Angkor with breakfast outside the temple (take away, from your hotel), and a short rest.
Srah Srang
We end our touring at Angkor with breakfast at Khmer local resturant (breakfast is not included), and a short rest.

An incredible experience with a fantastic guide

5.00Many people travel to Siem Reap to see the spectacular Angkor Watt, but his is the only REAL way to do it. Our guide Serakyuth was unreal. His depth of knowledge was unparalleled and whilst you may be tempted to go into this on your own, I can guarantee you won't come close to scratching the surface of history. Serakyuth's knowledge of Cambodia's past was incredible and he always went with the flow of us, never too pushy, and took AMAZING photos. No better guide out there, no better way to do it!
Amazing from start to finish!

5.00What an amazing experience! Our guide, Pal was super friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about Angkor Wat and Cambodia in general. We saw all of the bigger temples…Ta Prong being my favorite. The driver was also wonderful. He gave us cold water and cold wash clothes when we got back in the vehicle. Having the air conditioning in between temples was just what the doctor ordered in the heat! I highly recommend this tour!

2.00My wife and I were slightly disappointed with the experience we had on this tour compared to our experience with a different company seeing some of the lesser known temples around the Siem Reap area. We woke up super early for the sunrise and were sad that our guide directed us to stand in an area that has no view of the sun coming over the temple. The guide seemed to move at a super slow pace while we were visiting things that weren't super interesting and then run past things that we wanted to spend time looking at or taking pictures of, which was incredibly frustrating. The guide didn't give time to let the group ask questions about what they were interested in to allow for an engaging conversation that the group was interested in. That being said, we visited all of the temple locations as advertised on time and there were plenty of cold towels and water bottles.

5.00Chhay was such a funny and charismatic guide, we had a fantastic time! He was passionate and knowledgeable about Cambodian history, and his humour made it all the more engaging.
Truly Excellent

5.00First and foremost our guide Saruon Pal was a fountain of knowledge and passionate about the temples and their history. There was no question he didn't have an immediate answer to and was keen for our group to fully understand the long and colourful history of Angkor Wat and the surrounding temples. An added bonus was that he was also an expert at knowing where and how to take the best photos for us. The trip is a long 7 hours with an early start and a lot of walking, but this made bearable by our driver (and our hero) Mao, who was always there with cold water and cold towels at every stop. Thanks to you both for a wonderful.and enlightening tour
