Thank you very much for a lovely day out! - I went to the sunrise Angkor Wat and other major temples tour with the driver Mr Hai and Pal Sauron as tour guide. Pal was very knowledgeable throughout the tour and gave us so much information about literally everything! It was a very hot and tough day for my little boy who was 8 years old. But we all took our time and our own pace and stopped when we needed to. Nothing seemed rushed and there were so many photo opportunities!!! Some absolutely stunning temples to go and see! Angkor wat temple was extremely busy and wasn’t my favourite. Taprom temple (Lara Croft Temple) was our favourite! So much more peaceful and truly stunning! Thank you for a great morning and meeting us so early!!

Excellent guide. - Our guide was very knowledgeable about Cambodia’s history. He paced the trip taking adequate time go give us intro to ghe place we were visitiing, and explained in detail after the visit to the attraction. He combined his wit in the whole process, engaged us in conversation and giving his perspective to why ghings are the way they are. Though we had booked tuk-tuk reip, he offered to take us in an AC van combining with another couple. We had no issue with it since it was a hot day. B

Great Tour, inclusive of all temples - Jimmy was a great tour guide. I was a little nervous about the amount of walking we would be doing and the climbing of the temples but Jymmy allowed us to set the pace. He was very attentive and an even better photographer. He knows his history and that made the tour 1000 times better!

You’ll learn a lot - I can’t imagine experiencing Angkor Wat without a tour guide. Sauron Pal provided outstanding opportunity to get immersed into life and belief of the ancient Khmer civilization. Thanks to San driving us around, providing water and cold towels. They made the heat bearable which helped us to focus on learning the history. Sauron knows the best picture spots and is willing to take many pictures for you.
