Fantastic private guided tour to Angkor Wat in Siem Reap. Tailor made tour full of history and stories. - We had a wonderful private guided tour with Som and Pheakdey filled with history and stories of Siem Reap.
Som guided us around the Angkor Wat and the TaProhm temple where the Tomb Raider was filmed. He made the tour so much more interesting, educational and fun.
Taking lots of great photos along the way and sharing personal stories of his upbringing in siem reap and survival of hard times, to make it a more memorable and personable tour.
We could tailor make the day to our interests and requirements which made it more special.
Our driver Pheakdey was such a kind and considerate driver, providing cold drinks and cold towels after each walk in heat.
We highly recommend both Som as a guide and Pheakdey as a driver.
Thank you we will be back sometime soon 🙏🏽

Mr. Son is a lifelong friend - Not only is Mr. Son a wonderful and knowledgeable tour guide, but he is also one of the kindest human I’ve met. I have seen him go above and beyond for his clients including inviting them to dinner at his house with his beautiful wife Peungsreyleak and daughter Viriya. I have learned so much about Cambodia and Khamer language and culture from this man, and I am forever grateful. His kindness supersedes any expectation that you might have. He also isn’t kidding when he says he knows the good picture spots.

Book with Son if you want to get a deep insight into Cambodia's culture and you will have an unforgetable time! - If you are looking for a very competent and humorous guide with good photo skills for your time in Siem Reap, I highly recommend Son. Through his experiences in his childhood and youth and his past as a monk, as well as his education and experience as a guide, he has an incredibly broad knowledge of the history of Cambodia and its temples. I stayed with Son and his family while volunteering at the school he founded and passionately runs and during those 2 months he took me to countless temples and cultural events and it was the best thing ever. So if you want to get a deep insight into Cambodia's culture, contact him and you will have an unforgettable time!

Angkor Wat - Astonishing, memorable, and worthwhile - I have waited a long time to visit Angkor Wat, and our guide Son ensured we had a wonderful experience. He was so knowledgeable, took the tour at a good pace, listened to our interests and followed up. Not to mention his great photography skills :) He is passionate about the history of Cambodia and lit that fire in us also. Thankyou

Amazing Guide Knowledgeable, Friendly & Professional! - We had the absolute pleasure of exploring Angkor Wat and the surrounding areas with Sorm, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. His deep knowledge of the history, culture, and intricate details of Angkor Wat brought the temples to life in a way that made our visit truly unforgettable.
Beyond being an expert on the temples, he also has incredible insight into the local communities, recommending fantastic restaurants, bars, and hidden gems that we never would have found on our own. His passion for Cambodia, warm personality, and professionalism made our time together both educational and genuinely enjoyable.
If you’re looking for a guide who is not only highly knowledgeable but also friendly, engaging, and fun to be around, look no further. Sorm is simply fantastic, and we highly recommend him to anyone visiting Cambodia!

Very well-planned, they take great care of you - Absolutely must-do. A true wonder of the world 🙌🏽 The experience was made even better by our truly excellent guide, Chou Silong. He was funny, well-versed in all the history, could answer all our questions, and knew all the best places to be and the best times to be there. He made it a cultural experience, not just a tour 👏🏽 Sunrise was a cool (literally) experience and great to beat the heat. Half day was perfect because we were hot and tired at mid day.

Angkor Wat (Morning- afternoon) - Son is the best tour guide we could have had. He explained us everything about Angkor Wat and showed us the best places. He’s also teacher at Cambodia Organization for Social Development (COSD) and we did a volunteer in the school. Highly recommended to book the tour with him and donate/volunteer at the school.
