Perfect day at Angkor Wat - From start to finish we had a great day. Our guide Bunpheng was very knowledgeable, friendly, professional and his vast experience was really appreciated - from knowing how to avoid the crowds, pointing out key features in the temples to the best place to see sunrise and sunset. He also helped take some awesome photos for us to remember the day. Our driver was courteous ensuring there was lots of cold water and towels when we returned to the vehicle. Thank you for a well organised trip.

Great Angkor Wat tour - The Ankgor Wat all day tour from sunrise to sunset was outstanding. The original guide was replaced by another guide. His name was Leif (sp). Leif met us at our hotel before sunrise. Recommend getting your tickets for Angkor online as it is convenient to not have to stand in line before sunrise for tickets. He was very good and informative. We learned quite a bit about all the places we saw (Ankgor Wat, Ankgor Thom, Bayon, and other treasures) and also the history of the Khmer and Cambodian empire . Very polite and considerate, as were all the Cambodians we met. Highly recommend this tour.

Very successful visit to the temples of Angkor - We had a wonderful tour with our guide Nang, only to the temple of Angkor Wat at sunrise. Afterwards we visited Angkor Thom and the overgrown temples of Ta Prohm, all very impressive! After a lunch break from 11am to 3pm, Nang picked us up at the hotel and in the afternoon we visited other temples, including the Bayon complex. Nang was able to answer all our questions perfectly, but also gave us peace and time to let it all affect us and enjoy:) Highly recommended!

less crowds more culture and beauty - If you want to dive deeper than surface level while having a smooth yet intensive day around the Angkor complex then Bunpheng is your guy. From the awe-inspiring grandeur of Angkor Wat itself to the intricate carvings and hidden chambers of Bayon Temple, and much more, every moment was mesmerizing. Bunpheng knows his ways around the reins just as he knows his ways around culture and history, sharing historical and architectural insights and legends, as well as personal stories that brought each temple to life and made the past imaginable. The sunrise over Angkor Wat was magical and surprisingly chilly in January and the mid day break is totally worth it. No matter how tough and young you are a mid day rest makes you better comprehend the details of the second tour. Ofc there are more affordable tours but you’re looking for a truly immersive and enriching private tour, with a focus on understanding the cultural and religious aspects of the temples. We can only highly recommend this tour and Bunpheng as a guide!

Amazing day at the temples - Amazing tour. You can never see everything here but we really felt like we got the full experience. Chin, our guide, was exceptional. He timed everything well to avoid crowds when possible and gave thorough explanations of the history. The break in the middle of the day is a nice way to recharge from an early morning start.

Possibly The Best Tour of Angkor Temples - Probably one of the best tours we have ever had in all our travels. Highly personal, really informative and well paced. We visited 6 temples, each very different. We learnt so much about the history, culture, religion and so much more about Cambodia and the Khmer empire. Bunpheng also had a wonderful sense of humour. We cannot recommend him and the tour more highly. Angkor Doors is actually a great name - it's your doorway to many great experiences. We initially thought tours was a seasonal side hustle of a business that made and installed house doors and windows...
