A quieter tour that's still informative and covers the important sights - Mr Pal Chen was an excellent guide and a nice guy with it. Tons of detailed history in everything we saw. We really enjoyed the tour and especially appreciated the way it was put together, so that we could still see the important sights, while avoiding the crowds. Highly recommended.

A truly tranquil and thought-provoking experience - Visiting the many temples around Siem Reap is an essential part of the experience, and Angkor Wat is just one of many temples which remain from the Khmer Empire. One needs a really good guide to explain this 500 years of history, and Mr Bunpheng Chan was outstanding. He not only has an encyclopaedic knowledge of the temples, but he does his best to make your tour ‘tranquil’ by avoiding the worst crowds and finding new and better places to experience these amazing structures. He is, amongst other things, a good photographer, so we have many memories that include us in the pictures. Bunpheng made sure we were well-looked after with water and rest breaks, and his experience of life during Cambodia’s recent past helped us to get some perspective on the situation in the country today. We couldn’t recommend Angkor Doors enough, and we were so impressed that we took a tour of the war museum and Killing Field site the next day.

Perfect Private tour - We had a amazing tour with Mr. Pheng. He has extraordinary knowledge about everything and anything of Angkor Wat (plus all the surrounding temples) and other stories to tell about Cambodia making the tour itself more impressive. He also has a good sense of humor & photography. He knows the best times to visit the temples and also he shared to us some of his secrets about the tour!! We would love to come back and contact Mr. Pheng again :) He combines perfect English skills with the typical Southeast Asian friendliness, definitely recommended!! Also always on time (no matter if it is 4:30am in the morning for a sunrise tour) and very reliable; you can feel that he truly enjoys his job! ;)

Private tours - We booked 4 tours with Angkor Doors. The first was an evening of street food with Pheng at local Street 60. It's not for the faint hearted or the safe eaters. Think fried insects and barbecued frogs. Then we had 2 days of Angkor temples with Sarpoot, nicely spaced out so to avoid temple fatigue. On the 4th day, we went to the lake and floating village. A nice pace, not too long a day as the weather was hot. Our driver Dina was safe. Bottled water is always available

The perfect temple visit - This was a really great tour of the temples of Angkor! Our guide, Mr Bunpheng has concocted a very intelligent tour of most of the major temples on the Angkor Wat site, but in such a way that you are away from the hordes of tourists taking selfies that can often spoil a visit to a major cultural site. We were transported effortlessly around in a comfortable air conditioned mini van and the friendly driver was always waiting for us with ice cold water to refresh us after each temple. Our Guide was very knowledgeable and had the answer to all our questions. He is obviously passionate about his job, the temples and Kmer cultural heritage. Very friendly and a good contact with us and our teenage son. The tour was spread over two days and very well constructed - Mr Bunpheng has the experience to know where to go at just the right moment to have some tranquility- which is the name of the tour. We arrived at the Bayon temple and had it all to ourselves! We highly recommend this tour!! Jonathan

Flexible tour away from the crowds - Bunpheng is an excellent guide. We contacted him at the last minute and he was able to create a 1-day tour that was a combination of the tranquility, adventure, Angkor Wat sunrise and 3-temple tours. We got to visit some quieter temples with fewer tourists, while also seeing some of the famous, favorites. He is extremely knowledgeable, and we spent the rest of our trip recognizing all the things he'd taught us in just a few hours. Thank you so much - the highlight of my Cambodia trip!
