Excellent Day Trip Guided Tour of Angkor Wat

We had an unbelievable experience touring Angkor Wat! Our guide, Sak, made this trip unforgettable - he provided an exceptional level of detail on Cambodian history and culture. He is a gem and made the whole journey lively and informative. I cannot emphasize enough how special this trip was and am excited to return to Cambodia soon!

Amazing tour—incredible places embodying so much Cambodian history. Sok could not have been a better or more knowledgeable guide—it was clear he had years of experience as he had answers to all of our questions! He made the tour a remarkable day to never forget!! Also Da was a solid driver. Great day all in all! Highly highly recommend!

Amazing experience

Amazing experience! We got an early pick up straight from our hotel which gave us enough time to sit and enjoy the entire sunrise. Our guide, Sok, was very knowledgeable about each of the temples we went to and he was incredibly kind and friendly. Between temples we returned to a cooled van with cool towels and water. I would certainly recommend a tour with Sok to get the most out of the temples.
