We had a private tour with Rey and Ny. It was excellent! Worth getting up early to be picked up so we can see the sunrise at Angkor Wat. Rey was very knowledgeable. Ny supplied us with cold water and lemon scented clothes to cool down from the heat. a memorable day!

Mark_B, Jun 2026
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 :-)

Amazing Angkor day

Jeff_B, Jun 2026
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.

Bucket list

Sally_D, May 2026
Worth the early start- breathtaking bucket list opportunity, lovely breakfast, amazing photos , tour guide helped us to get the perfect picture

David and Chea were the...

Leon_K, May 2026
David and Chea were the best guide / driver combo! The tour was very informative and I would highly recommend

Angkor Wat Sunrise tour is a must and so very special! Ask for Se!

Marna_P, May 2026
Se was knowledgeable and so very accommodating. We started our tour with the best seats for viewing the sunrise. he then proceeded to take us around and explain the rich history and symbolism. He had a knack for both taking us around avoiding crowds while also was masterful at getting great photos with amazing angles. There was fresh water and cold towels each time we returned to the vehicle. I highly recommend this tour and especially Se!

Fantastic tour made perfect by SEN

HariharanV, May 2026
We had a fantastic private tour of 4 temples starting with sunrise at angkor wat ..SEN our guide was very educated and really found the balance between too much information and too little information.. he was spot on with how much we wanted to hear but also giving us space to enjoy and spending a good amount of private time with my partner .. his super power was photography, he would just show me the ultimate places to take a photo and was kind enough to take a lot of photos with my partner in unbelievable spots and he's pretty proficient with a phone camera.. overall it was a perfect day and I would strongly recommend Sen as the perfect guide for this activity

Private Tour with Mr. Se (C)

Jack_A, May 2026
The tour was fantastic, mesmerizing, and everything I could have hoped as someone who has wanted to visit this historical site for about ten years now. For those that read this — you must absolutely take this tour Mr. Se (aka “C”). He was kind, patient, extremely knowledgeable, and a fantastic photographer for us as well too. Not only did he know all the great spots and positions for photos, but he and our driver were so considerate of all our requests — I cannot recommend both of them enough, they were exceptional.

4 wheeling through the countryside

George_A, May 2026
Had a great time 4 wheeling through rural Cambodia. Saw how people in the countryside live their lives. It was a fun and interesting experience. The guide Sna was nice.

The sites are incredible,...

Joshua_G, May 2026
The sites are incredible, but going with an experienced guide and driver are a must to truly appreciate the experience, especially if you've never been before. My tour guide and driver, Keo Sieng and Chea, were professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. I highly recommend both of them.

Amazing experience

Jaime_R, Apr 2026
We had a great time. The temples are impressive already, but with our guide the experience was much better. He was very knowledgeable and was able to answer all our questions. On top, he is a great photographer, and suggested many cool spots and angles! The sunrise experience is an extra since you not only get to see the temple in a magical light, but you also start the tour early, which, considering the temperature, is much appreciated. The driver took us from temple to temple and gave us water and cold towels in each trip, which served as moments to recover a bit from the heat.

Great tour through Angkor wat!!

james_t, Apr 2026
Rey and Ny were great hosts who guided us from temple to temple from 4:30 - 11:30 am. We started with the right spot for the first light of the morning and navigated all the spots while avoiding crowds. Highly knowledgeable and interesting and informative. Really a great pace of the day.

Excellent way to see exceptional location

Ioanna_C, Apr 2026
What an incredible experience! From start to finish Se was so professional, polite and full of knowledge. The driver always had waters and cold towels waiting for us in the car. Great experience!

Spiritual Experience

It was such a spiritual experience to view the sunrise over Angkor Wat. Sa was the guide and he made sure I was comfortable during a hot day and he was so knowledgeable in Cambodian history.

AJ was comprehensive and kind. Transportation was smooth and comfortable with water and cold towels provided regularly.

We had a wonderful tour...

SARAH_W, Apr 2026
We had a wonderful tour with Mr Rith and driver Mr Nak. Communication was fantastic from before the tour until the end. We felt thoroughly looked after including the quality of the tour information (it was clear Mr Rith had a considerable knowledge of the Ankor Wat and surrounding temples) the cool towels and water after each stop (very grateful thanks to Mr Nak) and the careful consideration of where was the best place to get some excellent photos (Mr Rith has caught some amazing pictures of our family together) and the timing of attendance to avoid the queues as much as possible. We do not hesitate in recommending both and thank them for a very special tour that we will always remember.

Best guide ever!!! Ask for Se!!

Rebekah_W, Apr 2026
We had the best time with our tour guide Se!! He knew all the best places to avoid the crowds and take the most epic pictures. Also, sidenote, he should totally be a photographer because his pictures are some of the best that have ever been taken of us. He was a wealth of knowledge… And kept us in the shade as much as possible as it was well over 100° that day. Again, I can’t emphasize enough that he was amazing because he also made sure we were at the main temples before the massive group tours, so it often felt like we had the place to ourselves. Highly recommend, Se amazing and I would book with him again in a heartbeat.

Well worth getting up early!

Paul_M, Apr 2026
Amazing day. My guide was fantastic and he took me to all amazing places. Huot was brilliant Thai you

Great guide!

Kyler_H, Mar 2026
Sopha was an extraordinary guide - kind, knowledgable, and easy going. He has over 20 years of experience and it shows in the depth he was able to articulate at each site.

Awesome

Michaela_H, Mar 2026
Our Guide Praim was awesome. He had ice cold water for us in the car, knew the best spots for pictures and knew all the answers to our questions.

Tour Guide Curly ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

Garrett_R, Mar 2026
Our tour guide, Curly, made the experience one to remember. He was extremely friendly, funny, and experienced. He was very knowledgable about the temples we visited and taught us so much about Cambodia and its history. Curly also showed us the best places for photo ops, and took many memorable pictures for us. The driver was also nice and made the drive between temples very pleasant. His car was clean and has AC, and that was a lifesaver in the Cambodian heat. He provided bottled water between trips and offers a cold lemongrass towel to cool off. We highly recommend booking this tour with Curly as the experience made Cambodia one of our favorite countries to visit.

Wonderful activity!

MATINA_S, Mar 2026
Start early in the morning 5.30 am be at the entrance and wear a hat. Our guide was very knowledgable and the car driver was very helpful

Super Day & excellent guidance by Sa

Bakulesh_P, Mar 2026
Sa was a very knowledgeable driver/guide. Clear narration of history of all the temples visited. Proud of his country and it's people. We couldn't agree more. Super experienced for the entire day. Would love to visit Cambodia again in the future.

Review - AJ Angkor Wat

Dhiraj_L, Mar 2026
With AJ for the day, well spoken and well informed. Great Tour! Would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting to visit to Angkor

Sunrise at Angkor, never will forget this !

Jaime_F, Mar 2026
First, David deserves a raise. There are guides and then there is David. We had a private tour starting at sunrise. It was everything we could have hoped for. The beauty was indescribable. Sure you see it on the internet but here it was in person. This tour will never be forgotten nor will David's telling of the history. He was full of knowledge, kind and also had a great sense od humor. Don't miss out in this one.

Outstanding

Sarah_B, Mar 2026
We had a fabulous time with Rey and our driver Chea. The ice water and cold towel after every temple was a welcome relief. We did four temples and that was just perfect. Lots and lots of steps and uneven surfaces so wear clothes and shoes accordingly. It was a fantastic tour and Rey did an amazing job explaining each temple. His knowledge is extraordinary and he was truly outstanding. What a gift to be able to experience these temples.

Amazing guide and driver!!

cknorr, Mar 2026
We had an amazing morning with Reay and Ny they were both very attentive! Reay was very knowledgeable about all the temples, shared all the history about the temples and also Cambodia!!
