5.00We did the Private Guided Tour of Siem Reap highlights and hidden gems. What an amazing tour. We toured in a Tuk Tuk to the town centre, saw the bustling food markets, visited two monasteries, one with ruins, a workshop where they make local handicrafts, the King’s Palace and finished up at Apopo Centre where they train rats to detect mines. The excursions was very informative and I would thoroughly recommend.
Great Tour with Lux!

5.00On our pre cruise extension in Siem Reap, I booked this private tour to see as much of the city as we could and we were not disappointed! Lux made sure we go the most out of our time. We were scoped away in a Tuktuk for a great adventure. He took us to the local market to witness every day life of a Cambodian. Then to check out some Temples and the life of the Buddhist Monks. Followed by A stop at a local artesian shop. Then we got to visit the APOPO center to learn about the Herorats at their contribution to ridding land mines in Cambodia (this was my favorite). And finally a stop at a local grocery store to pick up some essentials. Lux was fabulous, fun and very accommodating. I highly recommend him for your tour of Siem Reap!

5.00What a great day. Hidden Gems alright. My guide was great and super knowledgeable about all of the sights. The guides that were provided at some attractions were also great. Tuk Tuk driver was good, no rush and all care, kept me refreshed with lots of water. A great way to see the city. I look now know where to explore next

3.00not the best visit and wished they made it clear that some of the hidden gems would be closed due to the new year celebrations. had I known, i would have canceled and rescheduled for a different day. the tour was 2 hours max and went to a 3-4 places. wish there was better communication between the tour operator and myself to be transparent about the expectations of the tour. was really looking forward to it but my expectations were too high.
Highly recommend

3.00Guide was lovely but spent an hour at the monastery which was far too long, the tuk tuk driver seemed to drop us off and then go somewhere else. It also said in the itinerary that we would visit the museum and we never visited that at all…only realised when I got back and checked my paperwork. The apopo centre was great but we could have gone there on our own as the guide didn’t come in with us.
Superb guided local tour

5.00The tour with the biggest impact and most art was guided by a local guide named Ran. Very educated fellow, who knows his history and explains in great detail the wonderful frescos of Siem Reap. Ran, answered all questions and also asked questions of us in his effort to learn and teach. This was a very informative, fun afternoon spent with a terrific guide. Very good, and excellent value. Do this tour- you will be happy.

5.00We had a very good experience with Ngoun. He’s not only proficient in English but he is also a wealth of knowledge and tips on how to get the best out of each visit. We enjoyed his narrative and insights very much. Would highly recommend him to anyone who wants a personalised tour in Siem Reap.
Made our trip enjoyable!!

5.00Lux was absolutely amazing on our tour! He was very friendly and informative about the local markets, the history of the city, and showed us hand crafted shops made by the locals. I would 10/10 recommending this tour to those traveling and wanting to experience the hidden treasures that make Cambodia special among the locals. They offered transportation from our rented bungalow and returned us back at the end of the tour. Cold refreshing water was provided. Contact and communication was easy and reliable. If you want to enjoy a tour without any stress, I would recommended this service. Thank you, Lux!!

5.00Sothea was the best tour guide you can ask for. He was kind, knowledgeable, very passionate, calm and overall great person to be around. Also he was so kind to share his story and ideas. 소티아 가이드님 너무 좋았어요~~ 정도 많으시고 캄보디아의 현실과 아름다운 부분, 친절하게 여기저기 보여주셔서 너무 좋았습니다. 시엠립오면 꼭 소티아 가이드님이랑 여행해보세요^^
