Fantastic full-day Angkor Wat tour and one of the highlights of our trip to Cambodia. We started before sunrise and spent the morning exploring Angkor Wat and several of the major temples. Our guide, Indiana Jones, was incredibly knowledgeable, engaging, and flexible. He explained the history in a way that was easy to follow and even took us to a couple of additional spots we were interested in seeing.
The day was very well organized, including an excellent lunch stop, and our driver, Mr. Sokchea, was wonderful. He was always ready for us and had cold water and refreshing wet towels waiting at every stop, which made a huge difference during a long, hot day.
We never felt rushed, and both Indiana Jones and Mr. Sokchea went out of their way to make the experience comfortable and memorable. Highly recommend this tour and especially this guide and driver.
We had a wonderful experience today in Siem Reap. Mr. Chea was an excellent driver, careful, and kind and Indiana Jones was a fantastic guide, very knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely attentive to our family throughout the day.
We had an absolutely amazing time with Indiana Jones (yes) and Mike. Indy was prompt in replying to our queries and spent time with us to tailor the experience for us. He’s extremely knowledgeable and and a great storyteller. I highly recommend this tour and if Indy is your guide, you’re in for a great time. Mike’s attentiveness and care ensured that we were comfortable in the heat. Overall, a day well spent thanks to these wonderful gentlemen.
PS: if you’re with Indy, make sure you ask him to do the Angelina Jolie pose in the temple.
I enjoyed the view and the slightly earlier time with transportation which the private tour allowed.
However, I feel it was not a good guide fit for me as an able-bodied person in my 30s. The tour guide spoke and walked very slowly, often repeating himself as well as asking multiple historical questions which I had already stated I had no background in. This did not go over well after a 430am wake up time, and the pace would have been better suited for an older group.
Additionally, despite the cost of the tour-no food was included. Luckily my hotel had provided me with a take away breakfast, but the place I was brought to for breakfast was overpriced, bland, and not included in the cost of the private tour even for coffee/tea. Overall I do not feel I would have done the tour this way if I had to plan again, but would put more time into planning to go by myself. However, many others feel that maybe they had a better fit with their guide.
I had the pleasure of doing this tour with Mr. Se as my tour guide, and Mr. Chea as my driver. Both were wonderful to work with, making this a 5-star experience where I felt incredibly comfortable and well taken-care of throughout. Mr. Se has an encyclopedic knowledge of the sites we visited and of the region's history. He took time to explain every detail of the temples, explain them in a cultural and religious context, and answer any questions I had in-depth. I saw some of the most beautiful and unique sites I've seen in the world, got some incredible pictures, and felt like I learned a ton during this tour. I'd highly recommend them for anyone visiting Siem Reap!
Sunrise at Angkor Wat is a great experience. Our morning was cloudy but our guide still was able to show us great places to take pictures. We did four temples was the right number and the order was great. Our guide went above and beyond the basics telling about the local history and the area. We got some fantastic pictures with his help. Highly recommend them
I had a very good one-on-one tour with Se. Being the only person on the tour made it feel more like a conversation with a very knowledgeable Cambodian friend. Se shared a lot about the different temples we went to, its history, how were they different from each other and at every temple, something unique to see that’s not often pointed out (eg did you know there are dinosaur engravings at Ta Phrom temple? 😮). And it helped that Se was also a good photographer and knew all the spots and angles to take stunning photos at. 😃 Highly recommended and I suggest - keep the group small. 😃
Rith was amazing and so knowledgeable. He impeccably planned the morning and was fun to learn from. Highlight of my trip!
We really enjoyed our tour! We learned so much from our extremely knowledgeable and experienced guide Rey and attentive driver Nak. They were very accommodating to our needs, and even went back to the hotel for us when we realized we forgot something. Rey knew all of the best photo spots and took some amazing photos for us. Overall would highly recommend this tour for anyone visiting the beautiful temples and wanting to know more about the astonishing history of the Khmer.
We had the most exceptional tour today with our guide Sen and our driver Tim. Mr. Sen met us with a warm welcome and a smile to start our day. He is so knowledgeable about the entire Angkor Wat area and each temple we visited. He is also an amazing photographer. Mr Sen was able to find the perfect locations for our shots and has amazing skills with your phone to take stunning keepsake photos. Mr. Tim was a great driver who was always smiling and ready to pick us up with a cold water in hand on a hot day. I can’t recommend this tour and this team enough. I hope you book this tour and are lucky enough to enjoy the day with Sen and Tim too.
We booked the sunrise tour with David and it was so insightful! He is extremely knowledgeable about Angkor Wat and was able to answer all our questions, even those regarding the temple's smallest details! We also enjoyed listening his stories about the temple's history, such as the sibling feud between two Khmer kings. He and our driver, Mr Nak, also took very good care of us, providing us with cold water and cold towels between stops, which was a lifesaver in the Cambodian humidity, and he was excellent at taking photos!! Not only is he charismatic and has an excellent command of English, he is also very intelligent and we learnt lots about Cambodia's socio-political context, from the Khmer empire to modern times! It was definitely an enlightening tour that we will never forget.
We have just completed the full day Angkor Wat sunrise tour - amazing - definitely lived up to expectations and then some!! This was of course due to the ‘wow’ moments upon seeing the temples, but also because of our guide - very knowledgeable with facts and history - and also his professionalism on organising our day ie confirmation, pickups etc. thank you Sa, thank you for making our first visit to Cambodia memorable.

Informative and interesting tour led by Mr. Indiana Jones and our driver Mr. Mike. We learned a ton and saw all the major temples. They took care of us with cold water, cold cloths and a stop at a restaurant with a/c when we started melting. They were so kind! Indy shared a lot of details about the history and kings. A great day!
Mr. Se was an amazing guide! He was very thoughtful and knowledgeable and adjusted the pace of the tour to match my slower speed. He thought of everything and the driver had nice cold clothes and chilled water ready after every temple. Each stop was incredible in its own way. Highly recommend this tour!
Sen was super. Funny, knowledgeable and perfect guide.
We would not have learned or seen so much without you.
Thank you for a wonderful day.
The temples are amazing. Our guide Se was excellent - great English, very knowledgeable, and has an amazing eye for angles and light on pictures. He got some really good ones of us. He also helped stay one step ahead of the crowds. Our driver, Nak, was also great - was always ready with a cold water and towel when we got back to the van. Highly recommend!
If you have only one day to spend in town, it’s good to be with a local hook and save you time and give you lots of information
We had an incredible day trip to Angkor Wat and several other temples around the Siem Reap area - all led by our fantastic guide, Mr. T, and our driver, Mr. Knee.
Not only did we learn so much about the culture of the Khmer Empire and Cambodia’s rich history, but Mr. T is also an ace photographer who snapped some pictures that we’ll cherish forever.
After walking around in the heat, Mr. Knee was also waiting for us back at our air-conditioned car — with cold waters and cold towels ready for each stop.
For the price we paid, we received tremendous value — and a trip that we’ll remember forever.
We would absolutely recommend any tours led by both Mr. T and Mr. Knee.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
We had an amazing experience exploring Angkor Wat with our tour guide, Mr. Se! From the moment our tour began, he was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable about the history, architecture, and cultural significance of Angkor Wat and the surrounding temples. He brought the ancient ruins to life with fascinating stories and insights, making every stop meaningful and engaging. His enthusiasm and kindness truly made the experience even more special.
We also want to give a special shoutout to our wonderful driver, Mr. Sokchea, who ensured our journey between the temples was smooth, safe, and comfortable. Navigating the Angkor complex can be challenging, but he made everything effortless and was always ready with a smile and cold water when we needed it.
Thank you, Mr. Se and Mr. Sokchea, for taking such great care of us and making our visit to Angkor Wat so memorable. You both went above and beyond. We highly recommend this team—you won’t be disappointed! We hope your boss sees this review because you truly deserve the recognition. Thank you again for an unforgettable experience!
We had a great time with Sen at Angkor Wat. He was so knowledgeable and accommodating. Would highly recommend
David was an amazing tour guide and explained all the history and highlights of Ankor Wat. We did both the sunrise and sunset tours with him. Plus - he is a really good Insta photographer!
Great places to visit. Glad to see restoration in progress .
Tour guide, Keo Sieng and driver Bo were so friendly and helpful.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a fantastic experience on our Angkor Wat tour with Praim. Everything was very well organised from start to finish, making the day completely stress-free. Praim is knowledgeable, friendly and passionate about the history and culture of Cambodia, bringing each temple to life with fascinating stories and insights.
The itinerary was well paced, giving us enough time to explore the major temples without feeling rushed. The transport was comfortable, he was punctual and professional, and made sure we were well looked after throughout the day.
Angkor Wat is an incredible place, and having such a well-run tour made the experience even more memorable. We would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Siem Reap. Thank you for an unforgettable day!
Spent today with Chanthy (Indiana Jones) at a full day sunrise Angkor Wat private tour. My family (husband and teenage son) enjoyed his vast historical knowledge, eye for perfect photo locations, friendliness, and strong English skills. We learned a lot about the Cambodian culture and temple evolution through history. We visited 4 different temples, and the lunch location was clean with good local options. Our driver David was super helpful with cold towels and bottled water for each stop since it was hot. We had an amazing time. I highly recommend this tour!
Once in a lifetime opportunity to experience Ankur Wat at sunrise. Indiana Jones was an outstanding tour guide who kept me ahead of the crowds and gave great history of all of the temples I visited. Sokchea was super attentive as our driver and the whole day was seamless. Highly recommend!
We had David as our guide and he was the most incredible guide we could ever ask for!! He was so informative, funny, and kind, and we enjoyed learning about how he met his wife (you should ask him if he’s your guide!!!). Having an AC vehicle in between stepping out into the heat was a lifesaver — we did scooter ride around the rest of the grounds the next day and the heat was almost unbearable. Could not recommend this enough!
Fabulous tour, superbly knowledgeable and enthusiastic tour guide (David), and extremely accommodating company.
We had an amazing day with Rith
He was very knowledgeable, helpful and nice he really helped to get awesome photos
We had an absolutely amazing experience at the Angkor Wat Sunrise Tour, it has been exceptionally!!!
Our guide Rey and his driver have been great. I don't know how Rey can remember so many facts about history! I also highly appreciated that he adapted to our preferences :-)
Great tour of the four temples! Sen, the tour guide, was wonderful and knowledgeable. His English was amazing and he was extremely knowledgeable about the temples. The driver was generous with unlimited cold water and cold damp towels to refresh ourselves after each stop.
