It’s a very satisfying experience in more ways than one. For one thing, the itinerary was just well-thought out. We got to see the sun rise behind the famed three towers at Angkor Wat. We were able to capture shots with the sunrise scene with water reflections. Then, Ta Prohom Temple with the shiny silver cotton trees was simply out of this world. Finally, Bayon with the huge faces of the ancient kings did not disappoint, either. For another, our guide Lok was very professional. His knowledge and explanations about the history and the artifacts added richly to my understanding and appreciation of the periods in Khmer history as represented by these sites. He also took great photos of everyone in our 12-member group. Finally, the price was right. I feel I got the most value out of this expedition. Highly recommended.

Fabulous tour, Awesome guide. Loads of great info, very engaging and kept the group on track and well looked after. Cold water and towels given to us at regular intervals. Fabulous day at Angkor Wat. Recommend 4.30am start as beautiful to be there at sunrise and to get out of the heat by the afternoon.

Our tour guide Tork was amazing. Pick up from hotel at 4:15 am as promised than straight to ticket sales to purchase 1 day pass. Once purchased we continued to Angkor Wat around 5 am. Sunrise is about 6 am. After sunrise we were dropped back at our hotel to enjoy our hotel breakfast and relax freshen up. We were picked up again around 08:20 am to then discover the other surrounding temples. We stopped for lunch at an air conditioned restaurant around midday then back to Angkor Wat in the afternoon and returned to our hotel around 3 pm. Overall it was a great day our tour guide was very informative. The tour bus was comfortable and offered air con a must as it was rather hot towards the end of the day. Highly recommend this tour.
