Explore rich history of Siem Reap - I have been working here in Siem Reap for 4 months and went on a 4 day tour with Praim Hear in November 2023 and enjoyed it so much, I recommended him to a friend staying with me and we both had the best 2 day tour of the temples and Kulen Mountain. It was 2 days filled with history, sights, good food and wonder. Siem Reap is full of rich history and culture, beautiful, friendly people, so many sights and temples to explore. The best way to visit Siem Reap is with your own knowledgable tour guide and the best is Praim Hear. I highly recommend contacting Praim for your own personal tour of this beautiful country and exploring all Siem Reap has to offer - Enjoy this private tour.

Praim exceeded our expectations! Excellent tour guide with deep knowlegde of Cambodian history and culture. Perfect English! - We had two wonderful days on a private tour with Praim. He is a fantastic tour guide with deep knowledge of the Cambodian history. Praim suggested a tailor made tour to us which perfectly fit to our tight schedule. On the tour, Praim explained extremly well the background and history of the Angkor Wat temples. Also he explained very well the recent history of kingdom of Cambodia up to the present time. On Day2 Praim guided us through Cambodia's impressive nature in the national park. Praim's English is perfect. He answered all of our questions and even went beyond with his explanations. He is thoughtful, patient and calm and has a very pleasant personality. In addition Praim is an excellent photographer. During our tour he shot over hundred photos of us with his professional camera. At the end of our tour, he shared his photos with us. Also worth mentioning: Praim has a very clean, comfortable and safe car/SUV. To sum it up: Praim exceeded our expections by far. If you are looking for THE perfect tour guide in Cambodia: Praim is the man!

Praim Hear is a great guide - Praim Hear is the best. There is a reason when I returned to Angkor Wat with my wife that I asked Praim to be our guide again. If he were busy, I was going to rearrange the whole trip. Praim is a great guy who cares about his people, and cares about the surreal ruins of Angkor Wat. Praim is excellent at bringing them to life and does so in digestible parts so that you are not overwhelmed. Finally, here's my other tip -- I asked to go back to Angkor Wat on the last day at lunch time -- there was no one there.

Three day tour in Siem Reap - Absolutely incredible - Our three day tour with Praim was absolutely amazing!! Cannot recommend anything better, he was an excellent guide for us during our adventures in Siem Riep. His knowledge of the history of Cambodia and the Khmer Empire was insane, I was so glad to have learnt all these details on the way to Angkor Park and each individual temple as I previously knew very little. Praim's english was also very good and easier to understand at all times. He is also a great photographer!

An absolutely awesome experience! - Our family had the most amazing time in Cambodia with Praim. He is extremely knowledgeable, endlessly patient, and goes the extra mile to make sure that we all had a fantastic and well informed visit. He took us to all the usual, and some lesser known sites, he knew all the best vantage points, and how to avoid most of the crowds, and as a major bonus, he is a fantastic photographer, and took so many beautiful photos of all of us, everywhere we went. He is also a genuinely decent human being, and we feel privileged to have been able to spend time with him. I cannot recommend anyone more highly, and highly recommend seeing Siam Reap with him!
