Overview
The temples at the UNESCO-listed Angkor Archaeological Park have almost a thousand years of history, so a guided tour is a good way to learn as much as possible about the temples’ art and architecture. On this shared tour, your APSARA authorised guide takes you to the highlights of the three main temples.
- Beat the crowds: arrive in time to watch the sunrise over the temple complex
- Save your energy: it’s usually hot at Angkor, so the minibus transports guests between the temples

- See the 200 faces of Lokeśvara which are carved into the stone at the Bayon Temple

Our tour guide Lok was excellent. He took a lot of time explaining the history of the temples and the mixing of Buddhist and Hindu elements. We had just enough time to catch the sun over the main building before we started the tour formally.
The minibus we very well air conditioned and we were offered cold water between temples.
Lok, our guide was also quite versed in taking panoramic pictures vertically and had some fun picture ideas for us at each temple.

This was the ideal way to see the main three temples of ankor. The early start means you miss a lot of the midday heat and can wander around these magnificent temples at a leisurely pace.Our tour guide Mr Pon Lok was extremely knowledgable, being able to answer all the groups questions and ensuing everyone captured the best pictures they could have. Would highly recommend

We had an unforgettable experience with our tour guide, Mr. Lok, on a sunrise tour of Angkor Wat. From the very early pickup to the final moments of the tour, everything was perfectly organized and on time. Mr. Lok has an incredible gift for communicating history in a way that is engaging, clear, and meaningful. His knowledge of Angkor Wat and its importance as a UNESCO World Heritage site is impressive, and he shared detailed insights that truly brought the temples and Cambodia’s history to life.
He is a fantastic storyteller with a strong, well-projected voice that made him easy to understand at all times, even in larger temple spaces. My husband and I learned so much during this tour and walked away with a deep appreciation for Cambodia, its culture, and its rich history. This sunrise tour was a highlight of our trip, and we cannot recommend Mr. Lok highly enough. If you are visiting Angkor Wat, do not miss the chance to tour with him!

We had such a great time on this tour. It was really informative and started right on schedule. We even got lucky and caught the sunrise, which made it extra special.
Chendra was amazing—so knowledgeable and passionate about the tour and his culture. Plus, he’s great with a camera! He took some really nice photos and videos for us and even suggested poses.
The transfers were also very smooth. Lis made sure the aircon was on before we hopped in, which was such a relief since it was pretty humid that day.
If I could suggest one thing, it would be to give guests a little time to grab coffee or a snack at the ticket center. The tour starts really early, and by the time we had breakfast it was already past 9 AM.

It's a must-have experience in Siem Reap. However, unfortunately, there are too many people, even at 5 AM.
That said, I have to mention that the guide we had was amazing and definitely made us enjoy every moment of the activity.

We finished this tour 5 minutes ago so listen up! Angkor Wat Sunrise Tour is perfect for anyone looking to see the sunrise and main three temples in an fun, educational and efficient way. Saved me hours wandering around not really knowing what I was looking at, and our small group of 6 was perfect. Our guide Chenda was THE jack of all trades, including but not limited to Tour Guide, Archaeologist, Photographer, Geologist, Botanist and English Teacher. Also he somehow looked 25 when he was 50 and managed to show me the Stegasaurous - a closely held Angkor Wat secret. He knew an incredible amount of background for the temples that he was able to explain while walking through, and helped save time by suggesting all the best photo spots. I’m going to miss Chenda and Mr Lucky and highly recommend this tour!
Mike_H, Feb 2023
Spectacular insight into the ancient world. Guide gives a description of the transition of the area from Hinduism to Buddhism.
AmoghVarsh_N, Jan 2023
Good trip. Our guide yib phana was knowledgeable n explained lot of things during visit to angkor wat
Kirsty N, Dec 2019
Angkor wat at sunrise is beautiful and well worth getting up early. We were picked up at 4:30am on the dot. Be prepared there are A LOT of people. Our tour guide was a lovely man but he talked too much and there was lots of hanging around in the blistering heat before we could actually get inside. Lots of his stories were irrelevant or were about things we already knew about, Buddism for example. By the end of the tour it was clear people were fed up and not really listening. Despite this he seemed nice and was very organised. The 3 temple sites we visited were amazing and we have lots of great pics. Please note that entry to Angkor Wat is not included in this tour and will cost you 37 dollars per person.
Response from Host, Jan 2020
We apologise that the guide talked too much. I just now responded to a complaint that the guide did not talk enough. It seems that everyone has a different requirement. But as the guest discovered, it isnt necessary to listen.
Over recent years, the daily temple ticket price has increased to USD37. Please note that neither the tour company nor the guide receives any portion of this ticket price.
chineseduke, Aug 2019
From pick up to drop off, our guide Mr YOUK was ever attentive, ever smiling and throughout the tour exhibited indepth knowledge of the Angkor Wat, Ta Phrom, and Bayon.
He patiently answered our queries and most times with a dash of humour making the tour a delightfully unhurried and " free and easy " one .Thank you Mr. YOUK and wishing you every success!
Karli S, Oct 2018
Very beautiful temple and good English speaking guide with lots of information. It is very good for a half day trip.
Anne M, Sep 2018
Excellent care and support from Mr. Guide. Patient, too. The tour itself was well executed, pickup was on time. Mr. Guide as we called him was quite knowledgeable about the ruins, answered our questions, gave us own time to take in the relics - greatly appreciated. Would recommend this tour if your time is very limited in Siem Reap. It was hot - water was provided on the tour but we ran out. Six of us were in this group.
Daniel_S, Jul 2018
Our guide, Sopheap, did a great job of managing several different types of tourists in our group and we spent about the right amount of time at each location. Excellent tour that hit the best spots of Angkor, then we just hired a tuk-tuk driver the next day to hit some of the minor temples that interested us.
