One of the best tours we've ever taken - I highly recommend this tour. I was impressed by Sam, our guide, his knowledge of the history of the temples and of the country. He shared interesting details about life in Cambodia, politics, religion and family traditions. The tour stopped at all the right places and even took a break for breakfast. Communication before the tour was impeccable. A great value for the amount of information and sights this tour included. Our driver was excellent and when we return to Siem Reap, my family will certainly look at more tours with this company.

Fantastic tour highly recommended - We really enjoyed our tour with Sam and Bun. They were both very friendly and helpful and made our experience very enjoyable. Sam’s English is brilliant and his historical knowledge is exceptional. We would highly recommend booking your tour with them.

Fantastic and memorable trip! - This trip exceeded all expectations and that was mostly thanks to our incredibly personable and insightful tour guides - Mao and Bun. Bun ensured we got a great spot to see the sunrise at Angkor Wat, always kept us informed of the next WC spot and offered to take our photos throughout the trip. Bun shared amazing knowledge of the temples, the complex and Cambodia's history in general. And, welcomed questions throughout. After each return to the bus, we were offered cold wet flannels and cold water. We were looked after very well throughout the whole trip! The temples were just incredible and will far-exceed any expectations you have from seeing photos. Would absolutely recommend this tour 🙌🏻☺️

Once in a lifetime experience to Siem Reap! - What a wonderful day! Bun was a superb guide who had the day perfectly timed to ensure you got the best position to capture some breathtaking pictures of the the sunrise over Angkor Wat. Bun’s knowledge was second to none & was able to answer any questions that were asked. He was also a wizard with an iPhone, taking amazing photos at all the best places. Apparently there are 5000 guides in Siem Reap, so it’s essential that you choose wisely for your once in a lifetime visit. Just book your place with Bun, he’ll do you proud. I watched other guides throughout the day & none of them were to Bun’s standard. Thank you Bun, you made it such a special day. It was a privilege to be part of “Bun’s Family” Also a special shout out to Mao who was our superb diver. He was a very safe driver, but also was on hand to provide ice cold water & a refreshing chilled face towel on boarding the bus after a hot walk round the temples….

Fantastic tour of the temples! - We had a wonderful day with Bun and Mao taking us round the most famous temples. Bun explained everything very well, leaving time for questions throughout. The pace was excellent and you could tell how passionate Bun was! Bun was very accommodating with taking pictures so solo travellers won't miss out on the picture opportunities. Mao was always very accommodating when we returned to the bus, providing cold water and towels. I would highly recommend this tour for all types of travellers.

10/10 sunrise tour. Two thumbs up - Bun and Mao were great! Buns super funny, beyond knowledgeable, and a very easy guy(ide) to talk with. Mao was a great driver. I hate mornings but am glad I woke up beyond early for this. Bun and Mao energy were so nice despite them working early. Plenty of ice cold water to be had. The cooling towels were refreshing and a nice surprise. Would recommend for anyone thinking of an Angkor Wat sunrise tour and more!

Highlight of Siem Reap - must do tour with Pi - We had the best time seeing the Angkor Wat area highlights with Pi. He’s passionate about the history which made it even more interesting and enjoyable with his story telling and great sense of humour. The tour was well organised and we were well taken care of from start to finish. I can’t recommend this enough! Don’t miss it !

Tour with Pi and Mao- Paradise in Angkor Wat - Pi was an absolutely outstanding tour guide, and Mao an incredible and extremely timely driver. I had the best tour I have ever had in my life! Hands down! My boyfriend and I visited Cambodia for the very first time, and this experience made the best of it. We started the day in the darkness, before sunrise at Angkor Wat. What came next, you will have to see for yourself! Pi was so knowledgeable, and his true talent of history and storytelling shined as bright as the temples in the morning sun! I would give Pi and Mao a million stars! Even if you are in Cambodia for a short amount of time, make room for this. We will have memories to last a lifetime.
