We are two couples from Australia who travelled by private tour to the temples of Angkor. We saw three temples and our guide was so knowledgeable.
Amazing day filled with lots of history provided by our wonderful guide. We changed from tuk tuk to car transport on the recommendation of our guide as he felt the day was too hot. What a great idea. Don't think we could have completed the tour otherwise.
Angkor Wat tour was a wonderful experience. Seila, the tour guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the history of the temples. You could see the pride he has in his culture, in his explanations. Even had answers when we asked for more details, well versed in the history. He was also flexible in the plans as this was a private tour. Highly recommend Seila and this tour. You won’t be disappointed! 😁
We really enjoyed the tour of Angkor Wat and the other ruins. Sokha, our guide was excellent and kept me us informed throughout the day. He spoke good English and knew a seemingly endless amount of facts about the sites. The TukTuk worked well even on a very hot day. The driver was very attentive and supplied lots of chilled water and ice cold flannels.
We had an excellent tour of all of the major sites and temples including Angkor Wat. Our guide, Sokha, was extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic about all of the temples and buildings. His English was good. The tuk tuk worked well with an endless supply of much needed cold water and refreshing cold flannels. It was great to have a cooling breeze instead of AC. We were dropped off at a nice restaurant for lunch (our cost as expected). Altogether a great day out, value for money. Highly recommended. P.s. Buy your temples pass online - same price but avoided queue. We just had images of the tickets on our phones. Worked well.
