Amazing sunrise at Angkor Wat - We had an amazing time visiting Angkor Wat for the sunrise. Mr. Sopheap Rath and Monath, our driver, met us early and drove us around for Angkor Wat and other temples throughout the day. We definitely recommend this group to get a great tour of Siem Riep

Awesome - Journeys Cambodia were recommended to us and we are so glad we used them. Our guide Pireak was pleasant and informative his English was pretty good. He has some great tips for taking photos. Angkor Wat is an amazing monument. Unfortunately nature didn’t turn on a colourful sunrise but the experience was not diminished as simply watching the pillars emerge from the dawn was beautiful. Highly rectory Journeys Cambodia and Angkor Wat

Magical Once in a Lifetime Tour - Waking up so early was worth it for the incredible experience of getting a tour of Angkor Wat at sunrise. Our guide, Mr. Sopheap Rath, was ready bright and early to guide us through the dark and explain the history of the temple, and even had us walk through the “lucky” side gate. He helped us find the best view of the sunrise and we were able to have a front row view to this once in a lifetime experience. After touring the rest of the temple, our driver, Mr. Monath, had cold towels and water waiting for us. Visiting this temple was a bucket list item, and I’m so glad we went with Journey Cambodia and Mr. Sopheap!

Great Tour - I had an unforgettable experience on my Angkor Wat tour with guide Sak and driver Sung. Sak’s deep knowledge of the history, architecture, and cultural significance of the temples brought each site to life. His storytelling made the ancient ruins even more captivating. Sung was an excellent driver, navigating the busy roads with ease and ensuring we were always comfortable and on schedule. Both were friendly, professional, and passionate about sharing the wonders of Angkor Wat. This tour exceeded all expectations, and I highly recommend Sak and Sung to anyone wanting to explore Cambodia’s majestic heritage in depth.

Angkor Wat Sunrise Tour with Sok - Sok was a fantastic guide! We loved our sunrise Angkor Wat tour and learned so much about Angkor Wat and the history of Cambodia. It was fantastic to get a cold towel and cold water after each temple visit to keep us cool. Would highly recommend!
