Lay Long is the best tour guide at Siem Reap!! - Alright the search for your charismatic, insanely knowledgeable, all around wonderful Siem Reap guide search can stop with Long. You can find him on Withlocals as Lay Long. We had the BEST time with him. Not only is he a wealth of knowledge about Angkor Wat and its surrounding temples, the history of Cambodia, and every intricate detail you can think of during your tour, he is also a delight to be around. We had a blast chatting about our different backgrounds (he learned English from Monks), family (a hard working rice farmer and family man), travel, you name it, it felt like we were with an old friend from the start. Logistics are a breeze for him - communications, transportation, photo taking, lunch time stop, navigating the busy sites, he was on top of the situation. Long, you are amazing!!!!

Tempels around Siem Reap - We visited Siem Reap ten years ago. This time we booked a tour with Long to see the temples arround Siem Reap again. Long is a very gifted guide and a very fine and friendly person. He refreshed our knowledge of the temples and told us quite a lot of new stories. His historic knowledge is excellent , as well as about religion and tales . We can warmly recommend him and will do so as well to our family and friends.

Awesome Angkor sunrise tour with Oum - Excellent sunrise tour with Oun. He ensured we got to some great spots for photos that were slightly away from everyone else. Despite it being busy he found a fair few with no people in the shot. Great photo tips along the way. He also took photos himself and sent them to us the same afternoon. I may have to pretend they were mine! Tuk tuk transfers included iced water after each temple and ice cold towels. The breeze on the tuk tuk was probably better than car aircon! He took us to a great coffee stop for breakfast, and stopped for interesting roadside snacks on the way back. His English is excellent (you can tell he has a teaching background) and he's very knowledgeable about history and Cambodian life.

Fabulous - We did 2 tours with Long - Angkor Wat and a food tour. Both were great. Long is a wonderful host, very knowledgeable and gives great insight into the history of Cambodia as well as the daily lives of the Cambodian people today. Highly recommended. Thank you Long for your warmth and hospitality.

The best tour in Cambodia - This was by far the best tour we had in Cambodia. Oun is so kind and knowledgeable, he took us to the best sites and the most secluded spots, so that often it was just us in the temples- even in Angkor Wat we managed to be completely alone thanks to Oun’s extensive knowledge! Thank you Oun for a wonderful trip, and also for all your food recommendations!

Outstanding! - I stumbled over WithLocals when searching for a guide and a photographer in Siem Reap. Oun seemed to be a good choice and how right was I! He was fast with replies before my arrival when I had some, not always so relevant, questions. He picked me up at my hotel in the early morning hours before sunrise and with his driver brought me to Angkor Wat. It turned out to be perfect location for the sunrise photography! Throughout the morning he brought me to the right places, always one or two steps ahead of the tourist herd making my photography so much more pleasant. I had never imagined the chance to shoot without a lot of people around! A secluded temple where we were alone was a fantastic experience. And after each temple the driver was waiting with a bottle of cold water. I really can recommend Oun and his services! I came to Siem Reap for one thing and he fulfilled my wish more than expected. @bosseengbergphotography

Best guide to experience Angkor - We had a fantastic tour of Angkor with Long. His in-depth knowledge of the temples, along with the history of Hinduism and Khmer culture, was intense but rewarding. By the end, we were able to recognize many of the stories carved into the temples, which made the experience even more meaningful. Long is a wonderful person, very accommodating, and flexible with scheduling. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to deeply understand the heritage of Angkor.

Discover the 8th World Wonder - I highly recommand Pok as a guide, his energy and knowledge helped us understand and enjoy the complexity of Angkor's temples. His management, guidance and leadership allowed us to prepare for the 7 hours day trip with good advice and a nice restaurant recommandation to relax. If you enjoy Human History, you will learn a lot about the Khmer Empire and the impact of Angkor's temples on Cambodian's life nowadays and pride. We had a cheerful guide who took also great pictures of the day trip. His photography skills will be impressive. Believe us!
