Best Decision! - My Husband I would highly highly recommend Sopheak and the Siem Reap Angkor Travel and Tour company. We arrived in Phnom Penh in the evening and did not want to waste the day traveling to Siem Reap so we booked Sopheak who picked us up from the airport and drove us over night to our destination. He picked us up on time, helped us with our luggage, got us to our destination safely and in a timely fashion. We were able to travel overnight, sleeping in his air-conditioned comfortable van and arrived to see Angkor Wat for sunrise...it was amazing! Due to Sopheak's professional, friendly nature we ended hiring him for the rest of the day to take us around Seim Reap, it was the best decision we could of made. He let us go our own pace to the different temples and found us the perfect lunch spot that had great food and amazing coffee. Sopheak was easy to communicate with great English and was able to text easily through WhatsApp. Highly recommend would definitely use Sopheak in the future!

Easiest Way to do Temples - Started with Angkor Wat, the Angkor Tom, Terraces of the Lepers and Elephants, and Ta Prohm. After lunch some went to the markets and some went back to hotel. You can tailor these tours to your own speed and ability. Great for seniors and those with diminished mobility.

Oh what fun I had on my Private City... - <p>Oh what fun I had on my Private City Tour in Siem Reap! My tour guide, Pithou, was absolutely tremendous! He is extremely knowledgeable about Siem Reap and seemed to genuinely enjoy sharing that information with me. We visited many local landmarks including the Royal Palace and Garden, a Buddhist pagoda and a Khmer Killing Field. My favorite stop was to an Angkor Artisans work shop and silk farm. Yes, my pockets were lighter when the tour concluded but I love my new silk scarf and tees. Thank you for a fantastic tour, Pithou!</p>

Siem Reap City Tour - I was picked up 10 minutes late, which wasn’t a big deal. Pithou was our guide for the day. His English wasn’t good so it was hard to understand him. The car he picked us up in was old (like ‘92-‘93) barely had AC and the driver drove like 5 mph!! Cars and motorbikes were honking at us. Pithou took us to see a well known Buddhist temple, The Kings Garden, Artisan Wood workshops, Artisan Silk workshop, The Killing Fields Museum and a Gem shop. My favorite part was the Museum because it was very educational and yet so peaceful even though so many lives were taking away there. Why two stars? This tour wasn’t worth the $56. Most of these places were not worth seeing. I felt he took me to tourist traps, to get me to spend my money. The Gem shop that he took me to, hound me and it was hard to leave. He also took me to a little silver shop, to get me to buy silver. I didn’t want to buy anything! I wanted to learn and see parts of Siem Reap tourist didn’t know about. Oh! The silk workshop was maybe 40 mins drive, Not worth it for maybe 5 mins there.
