5.00I booked this tuktuk “big tour sunset” tour, the organizer was very quick and available knowing that I had booked quite late. The tour of the temples is great, a good complement to the first tour. My driver was great, he was punctual and provided me with several bottles of fresh water and a refreshing towel. It was very friendly, I recommend without hesitation this tour!

5.00One of the best tours and the best guides I have ever had. Everything went smoothly and as per the plan. I had booked the tour online with no prior communication with the agency and was picked up on time from the correct place :) The itinerary covers most of the main spots at Angkor. The tour guide did an amazing job in managing the group of people, no drama no delays 😃 He had an amazing skill to deliver, what he called "lesson time" so other than the mesmerising structures we also got to learn a lot about the history. bonus: he also took great photos Totally recommend

5.00The best tour in Siem Reap, Angkor. The tour was very fun and good English speaking. easy to understanding. We then had an enjoyable tour, going around the temple complex with Prem being a very qualified tour guide with immense knowledge of the history and the buildings found in the complex. We also enjoyed our meal at the restaurant he took us to and the restaurant was also reasonably priced.
