Very informative tour guide

We booked the sunrise tour with Yuth and had an amazing time. He was very knowledgeable about the history of the temples, and the changes between the Hinduism and Buddhism as the predominant religion and how that impacted the sites. He was very helpful in explaining all the different murals, and pointing out interesting ones we may have missed (as well as explaining different inscriptions and the history of the Khmer and Sanskrit languages in the area). He also took great photos - overall a very enjoyable and interesting tour!

He takes great pride in sharing the rich history of the temples, the transitions between Hinduism and Buddhism, and the stories behind the murals and inscriptions—so it’s wonderful to know his explanations made the experience even more meaningful for you. We’re also glad you loved the photos he captured! It was a pleasure having you on the tour, and we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

Knowledgeable and professional tour guide who can read Sanskrit from inscriptions

I booked Serakyuth for a small circuit tour around Angkor wat with watching sunset at Mt bakeng. It's an compact day to go through many sites and Mr Serakyuth has done an absolutely fantastic job! We learned a lot about the history and religion of khmer emipire from his explanations on murals and sculptures. We deeply appreciated his knowledge of cambodian languages and Sanskrit to decipher some inscription on the columns, which give an extra kick to the tour! Serakyuth is an an professional and passionate tour guide with a touch of good humour. He is flexible with our tour plan and price is very fair. After 8 hours in depth tour around Angkor Wat, we finished up with the sunset highlight at Mt bakeng.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was truly my pleasure to guide you through the small circuit of Angkor and share the history, art, and spiritual heritage of the Khmer Empire with you. I’m very happy to hear that you enjoyed the explanations on the murals, sculptures, and inscriptions—being able to share my passion for Cambodian languages and Sanskrit always adds a special dimension to the tour. I appreciate your kind words about my professionalism, flexibility, and humor. Your enthusiasm made the full-day journey, from Angkor Wat to the sunset at Phnom Bakheng, even more enjoyable. Thank you again for choosing me as your guide. I hope to welcome you back to Cambodia for more adventures in the future!

An exceptional guide

Yuth is simply exceptional. Flawless English speaker. Gifted photographer. Expert on temple sites, stories, and inscriptions. Friendly and personable, flexible, responsive, kind, reliable. We had him for a group tour then booked him afterwards again for a private tour. We were very lucky to catch a gap in his schedule; we saw his otherwise fully booked schedule. During our time together and based on our requests, Yuth: > crafted creative photo and video shots for us, including a panorama of us in multiple hidden temple locations > taught us meditation in a quiet spot at a banyan-tree-covered jungle temple > clearly and concisely retold Hindu and Buddhist mythologies as depicted on the temples, summarizing the morals > discovered a new, hidden Khmer inscription and transcribed it for us

Dear Wander, Many thanks for your review and your participate with our tour. We are so glad that you have such a good experience with our tour guide Yuth. All the best for you, Serakyuth

Fabulous knowledgeable guide

Yuth is a wonderful guide. He knew about every carving , the history of Cambodia, the kings, the religion, the culture and even the best ice crean spot! He’d been recommended by a friend and we felt really lucky to have been about to have the day with him. He set the right pace, provided drinks when needed and we could not have had a better guide.

Operator response

Amazing guide for Angkor Wat

“Yuth” was an outstanding tour guide to see the temples of Angkor Wat. He is a wealth of knowledge of the history, construction and meaning of each building. He reads the ancient Khmer language and can interpret the poetry carved into the walls. His English is excellent, extremely professional and very funny. I enthusiastically recommend him and his partner if you want an in depth tour of Angkor Wat and the surrounding areas of beautiful Cambodia. I’d give him six stars if I could.

Excellent Tour Guide

Fantastic day! The day was super organised, cold flannels and bottled water were handed to us each time we were transported to the next temple. Our tour guide, Yoeun had a wealth of knowledge, and offered to take photos of us at particularly picturesque spots. Yoeun clearly had a passion for his work and truly made the trip a day to remember!

Visited for 4 days of temple touring

So good! Great English, great explanations, good stories, very interactive and charming, lots of care and attention to detail, and carefully planned. He even knew when we should avoid certain areas for over crowding and switched up the tour to give us the best opportunities at temples which were empty; at some point we were the only people in and around the magnificent temples. Was such a good trip.
