Angkor Wat is a temple complex in Cambodia and one of the largest religious monuments in the world, on a site measuring 162.6 hectares. Originally constructed as a Hindu temple dedicated to the god Vishnu for the Khmer Empire, it was gradually transformed into a Buddhist temple towards the end of the 12th century.
One of the most famous temples in Angkor, Ta Prohm is known for the huge trees and the massive roots growing out of its walls. The jungle temple also featured in the adventure movie “The tomb raider”; several shots were filmed in the Ta Prohm.

The Terrace of the Elephants is part of the walled city of Angkor Thom, a ruined temple complex in Cambodia.

Great tour from Praim today! He was knowledgeable, friendly and explained everything very well. Highly recommend to book with him.
A great experience with a lovely polite and very experienced guide - Praim met us early morning from our hotel and provided us with a great experience and highly recommended 😊
I can’t speak highly enough of Priam and this fantastic tour! We were picked up in a very nice air-conditioned car, Priam was incredibly informative about all the history of the temples, kings, and the surrounding areas. I asked a lot of questions! He knew all the best spots for photos too! Priam has a very kind and calm demeanour and happy to be flexible around what we wanted to do with our five-year-old daughter. He filled us in on the history of his family as well when we asked which was also interesting to learn about the more recent history of Cambodia in the area, and what it was like growing up through the civil war for him and his family. Don’t hesitate to do this tour it’s an absolute MUST do here.
Mr Praim turned out to be a very well educated and informed tour guide. General and specific questions were very well answered.
Mr Praim was an exceptional tour guide. He was an excellent storyteller of the history of Angkor Wat and guided us through the temples efficiently and thoroughly. He also gave us excellent historical and current perspectives of Siem Reap and Cambodia.
My partner and I did the small circle Angkor tour as we only had one day to discover the beauties of the area. Keo Sieng was our guide and he was very knowledable and engaged while taking us on a journey through history. He told us stories behind each stone-carved image which significantly enriched the whole experience of admiring the art. Definitely reccomend!
Beyond incredible. Praim made our day extra special. This is the best way to experience Angkor Wat and all of the temples of Siem Reap. This is a first class service and fully custom to your liking. Praim’s English is very good and he did a great job in explaining everything and making it perfect for us. Thank you for the best day!
We had a great tour with Praim and would highly recommend him for anyone visiting the temples. Very knowledgeable, patient and kind. Was able to get special permission to drive close to Angkor wat to accommodate my wife’s knee issue!
Praim was a WONDERFUL guide and was very accommodating. my wife was struggling with a knee issue and he made it possible to get closer with the car. he was incredibly knowledgeable about the sites and made our visit to the complexes complete.
Highly recommend this amazing private tour with Praim . He knew all the best places to take stunning photos away from the other tours and somehow we where always one step ahead of the other tours so we avoided the crowds . He also took lots of lovely photos of us His English was excellent and we learnt so much from him about Cambodia and it's history. Air conditioned vehicle and free unlimited cold water which was much needed in 37c temperatures.
