Excellent tour - Excellent tour of Angkor Wat and two other temples with car, driver and guide. Our guide Leap (pronounced with 2 syllables) was friendly, informative, and for any teenage girls being dragged along by their parents, very good-looking. This is a very effective way to accomplish what you came to Cambodia for.

Best decision ever! - I have never been so happy to write a review. Booking a tour with Long was a brilliant choice. He is extremely passionate and excellent at detailing all these interesting facts that we would have otherwise overlooked. His English is very good and he is excellent at telling stories. As we walked by other larger tour groups I was very glad that we booked a more intimate experience with Long. He is extremely friendly and caring and I would recommend him to anyone travelling to Siem Reap! Thank you for our day Long we will remember it for a long time.

Excellent tour with Oun - Oun responded promptly to my messages and was waiting for us at our hotel reception ready to start the tour. He was very knowledgeable about the history of all the temples we visited and also gave us interesting information on the history of Cambodia. What was really good about having Oun as our guide is that he took his very nice, quality camera and took many photos of us which he shared with us via a card reader at the end of the tour. The photos were great, far better than the ones we took as we only had mobiles. I would definitely recommend Oun as he is everything you need in a tour guide and with the photos he took he offers even more.

Great tour w tour guide Dorn! - Dorn was such a knowledgeable and kind tour guide who customized the tour to fit our needs and timeframe! Dorn even was even able to help us with finding locally made art shops and restaurant recommendations in town. Highly recommend choosing Dorn for your tour.

Long is a superb guide!! - We were on our second trip to Angkor Thom and so wanted to see some of the quieter temples. We’d had some suggested to us by a family member and asked Long if he could tailor a tour for these to last for about 4 hours. Long took us on a fantastic tour of the temples we wanted to see. He’d obviously prepared well as he shared lots of information and background to each one. He also gave us a good insight into Cambodian life and was the perfect guide. The cost of the tuktuk and unlimited water was included in the cost. He was the best guide that we had on all of the trips we did whilst on holiday in Cambodia and Laos.

Amazing Tour - Long is full of knowledge and a wealth of information. He made sure to engage all participants and accommodated to our schedule and requests. Just a wonderful person and we plan on using him again. Thank you Brother for everything that you do for Cambodia! We will see one another again!

Fantastic day - We had a great day with Oun. He was already at the hotel 20 minutes before the agreed time and so we could start our tour relaxed. Thanks to his good knowledge of English, communication was very easy. He showed us the most beautiful corners, looked for suitable photo spots and told us a lot about the history of Cambodia. There was sufficient water and especially ice-cooled refreshing cloths available. Unfortunately, the time was over far too quickly. Finally we received the photos that Oun took of us during the tour. What great memories. We would do the tour anytime again with Oun!

A perfect day! - Our experience was incredible. Long was an amazing guide who had great communication, picked us up from our hotel on time and made the day comfortable and enjoyable. Long had an amazing depth of knowledge about the temples and their history and this added so much to our experiences of the sites. We would have been wandering around aimlessly otherwise not knowing where to look. Long also structured the tour so that we weren’t too overwhelmed with other visitors and the temples visited all offered a unique experience. Long took care of the tuk tuk transport and water for us which also made the day enjoyable. Couldn’t recommend this tour more!

Great intro to Angkor Wat - Excellent time visiting Angkor Wat with Oun. We saw and learned way more than we would have on our own. His way of talking about history was fun and we learned a lot about his culture. He took lots of pics of us and he got us to try red ants. Lol Highly recommend a tour with Oun!

Much to improve - We booked the ultimate Angkor Wat temple day trip with one of the local guides and the day before the trip, they cancelled the booking without any explanation or attempt to reschedule the tour which was quite disappointing. I had to reach out to the local host who didn’t reply and then contacted the withlocals company for help. They did not help at all with booking another tour guide from the guides available, so we had to book a separate tour guide through our hotel as this was our last option. Not saying I wouldn’t book with them again but the customer service was very poor for this particular tour.
