I enjoyed my sunrise tour with Mr. Sok Chea and Chanthy aka ‘Indiana Jones’. I booked a private tour since I was heading to the airport immediately after the tour. It worked out perfectly. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and professional. We were able to adjust the schedule as needed and I am very thankful we had a van with AC. Highly recommend!

Amazing Angkor Wat Tours

Kevin_W, Sep 2026
Amazing day, Sen was an excellent tour guide teaching the history and culture significance of each temple. He also took great pictures, which was especially nice as a solo traveler. Tim was also a great driver, getting us everywhere safe and ensuring everyone had cold water at each stop.

Great day seeing wonderful Siem Reap temples - Mr T was awesome!

Samantha_D, Sep 2026
Mr T was awesome! We had such a great tour and a great day visiting the temples. Everything was stunning! The information was great, lots of good laughs and time to explore. Would definitely recommend!

Excellent first visit to Angkor Wat with Mr. Se

Brent_C, Sep 2026
Mr. Se and driver Mr. Chea arrived on time and were very pleasant. His English is very good and easy to understand. He took us right where we needed to be at Angkor Wat for the sunrise. Unfortunately, the clouds didn’t did not cooperate, but he had some photos that he shared with us. We had an enjoyable visit at Angkor Wat, and then three other temples. He helped to make sure we got all the best photo spots. Highly recommend him and his driver.

Great tour

Sen’s great tour

Natalie_C, Aug 2026
Sen was our fantastic guide to the temples. Lots of history to be shared and facts on the temples. Lots of walking with plenty of water and breaks given. Sen speaks clearly and ensures everyone is engaged, including the kids. Have learnt a lot from today’s trip, thank you Sen for the great pictures.

Sunrise tour

Suzanne_W, Aug 2026
Absolutely brilliant Angkor Wat sunrise tour! Our guide, Sen, was knowledgeable and friendly, and seeing the temples at sunrise was a truly unforgettable experience. Highly recommend this tour!

Mr. T and Tim were great!...

Jeremy_D, Aug 2026
Mr. T and Tim were great! The tour was fun, efficient and educational. Mr. T made us laugh and taught us so much history.

Sen is the best!!!

Alexii_L, Aug 2026
Sen and our driver (Michael Jackson) were phenomenal!!! Sen was so knowledgeable, kind, hospitable, and warm. We highly recommend! Tour flew by and early morning for sunrise was the best and we saw temples before it got too hot (in August).

Long Experience

Alyssa_R, Aug 2026
Mr T was our tour guide and James Bond was our driver. I felt safe and got water after every temple which was nice. Pickup and drop off went smoothly. We went during monsoon season so seeing a Sunrise is unlikely. Overall I felt the 8 hours was too long for what we really were looking for but I didn’t see a shorter length tour option. We went to an unknown temple which I could’ve skipped. You stop for food it felt the time was long and half the people were sleeping during it due to being up so early. The actual tour you get what you pay for but again it was much too long for us personally. Mr T made us laugh and had jokes and was very knowledgeable about the 3 main temples. He helped us take photos and videos. Made sure we were on time and schedule and had bathroom breaks. We saw monkeys too

This tour is a great...

Thank you so much Sen! It was a great and informative trip and the photos you took of us were so good. We have wanted to visit Angkor Wat for many years and couldn’t have had a better guide . Would thoroughly recommend this trip

Great tour!

Samantha_S, Aug 2026
The highlight of this tour was Mr Se! He was so kind and knowledgable and his English was excellent. He kept the kids engaged and made the day so memorable. Our fabulous driver Mr Chea was always ready to greet us with a smile. Endless cold towels and cold water helped get us through the day. All in all 100% worth every penny. Highly recommend for families travelling with kids!

Remarkable tour and guide!

Harish_S, Aug 2026
Excellent tour, Mr. Se was a very knowledgeable and friendly guide. Took us through the main highlights of each temple (many were practically empty when we arrived). He also helped us click lots of great pics. Highly recommend!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Unforgettable Experience – The Best Tour We’ve Ever Done

Kalisha_M, Aug 2026
We’ve travelled to 33 countries and have done guided tours at some of the world’s most famous monuments, but this was, without question, the best tour we’ve ever been on. Of course, Angkor Wat and the surrounding temples are absolutely breathtaking, but what made this experience so special was our guide, Mr. Se, and our driver, Mr. Chea. From the moment we were picked up at 4:30 a.m. until we were dropped off around 11:30 a.m., we felt completely taken care of. Watching the sunrise over Angkor Wat was magical, and exploring Angkor Wat, Bayon, Ta Prohm, and Banteay Kdei afterwards was an unforgettable journey through Cambodia’s incredible history. Mr. Se was simply outstanding. His passion for Cambodia’s history and culture was contagious, and every explanation added another layer of appreciation for what we were seeing. He wasn’t just reciting facts—he told stories, answered every question with enthusiasm, and made each temple feel alive. Beyond being incredibly knowledgeable, he was kind, patient, and genuinely cared that we had the best experience possible. He also knew every perfect photo spot and captured some of our favourite pictures from our entire Southeast Asia trip. Those photos are memories we’ll cherish forever. Mr. Chea was just as wonderful. Every time we finished exploring a temple, he greeted us with the warmest smile, an ice-cold bottle of water, and a refreshing cold lemon towel. It may seem like a small gesture, but after walking in the Cambodian heat, it made such a difference and showed the level of care and hospitality throughout the tour. The early start was 100% worth it. Every detail was thoughtfully planned, the pace was perfect, and we never felt rushed. By the end of the tour, it genuinely felt like we were saying goodbye to friends rather than people we had just met that morning. This wasn’t just another sightseeing tour—it was one of those travel experiences that stays with you long after you’ve returned home. If you’re considering booking this tour, don’t hesitate. It will likely become one of the highlights of your trip, just as it was for ours. If I could give this tour more than 5 stars, I absolutely would. Thank you, Mr. Se and Mr. Chea, for giving us memories we’ll never forget.

Such a beautiful place

Nicola_K, Aug 2026
An early start but worth it. What An amazing place, our guide was fantastic and helped us get a great spot for the sunrise.

Amazing experience seeing the temples!!

Mark_S, Jul 2026
Had such a great experience on this tour!! Wow. This is the best way to see the temples of Siem Reap. Our tour guide, Mr. Se, was super knowledgeable, fun, and took the best photos of us during the tour - he could be a pro photographer in addition to being a pro tour guide! The temples are stunning and it was awesome to hear insightful information about the historic sites from Mr. Se!

Mr T the Best

SooMin_H, Jul 2026
Mr T was great, he was very funny and knowledgable about the entire landscape and history of the entire area

Unforgettable tour with Indiana Jones and William!

regina_c, Jul 2026
We had an incredible experience with Indiana Jones and William! We felt so taken care of from start to finish. Not only did Indiana share so much of the history behind all of the temples, but did it with such humor, making the experience a trip we will never forget. He is also an incredible photographer and took the best pictures of us throughout the tour. William always made sure we were hydrated and the van was cool between stops, as well as, ensured we made it to each stop efficiently and safely. Overall, one of the best tours I have taken in Asia. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone considering visiting Angkor Wat.

Sen and Jamesbone are...

Rashed_A, Jul 2026
Sen and Jamesbone are probably the nicest guides I’ve ever had. Jamesbone always greeted us back at the bus with a smile, ice cold water and cold wet towels. Sen is very knowledgeable, has great english, and is also quite a delight even at 4:30am. I would 100% recommend this experience and having these two as company!

Great

Leonid_K, Jul 2026
Mr T was great and very knowledgeable. He was able to answer all my questions and everything was organized well. Mr Red was a great driver

Highly recommended

Alan_B, Jul 2026
An amazing tour - would highly recommend! Sen was a superb guide and James did a great job too. 10/10.

We had a Great Time with Praim!

Marcio_P, Jul 2026
Praim, our local guide from Angkor Wat Travel Tours, was a great guy! He was on time, polite, cordial, accommodating and, mostly importantly, he was very knowledgeable about Siem Reap and Angkor Wat; fully answering any questions we had. Also, he speaks English very well! If you’re in Cambodia, or planning to come, please, do look him up if you are in the Siam Reap area. You won’t regret it!

Outstanding!

George_B, Jul 2026
Rith was our guide who did a tremendous job. He was funny and provided life to the stories and temple history.

10/10 experience

Morgan_B, Jul 2026
This tour was a great experience. Mr. Se was so knowledgeable about Angkor Wat, and he was able to offer insight and answer all our questions along the way. Also, Mr. Se was very generous about taking pictures throughout the tour. The driver demonstrated wonderful hospitality by regularly offering cold water and wet towels in the humid jungle. I would absolutely recommend this tour to anyone and everyone.

Totally exceeded our expectations! Mr. T the best guide & Mr. Ta the best driver 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👍🏼👍🏼

DylanChenTeck_O, Jul 2026
Mr. T, guide of Angkor Wat Travel Tour, is a very informative, helpful guide & took such good care of us for our Sunrise tour on 23 July 2026. He is also very funny, an amazing story teller, & an excellent photographer. Driver Mr. Ta is a very careful & good driver, and they provided us with cold bottled water after each of temple visits. They made our visits to the temples so pleasant & comfortable, providing truly expert advice & navigation, & creating wonderful memories of our temple visits. They are both highly recommended, especially if this is your first visit to Angkor Wat, as their tour saves so much time (& energy) & you get to travel in peak comfort 👍🏼👍🏼
