Had a really brilliant day visiting the amazing temples of Ankor largely thanks to our excellent guide Sak who was not only extremely knowledgeable and courteous but also very considerate with a great sense of humour. Cannot recommend him highly enough. Special mention too to our driver Vichet who was always on hand with chilled water and much needed cooling face towels. If you’re thinking of booking a day trip or longer to visit the temples then Sak and Vichet should come top of your list!
Dear Charlie, Thank you so much for your kind words. It is wonderful to know that Sak’s knowledge and humor made your visit so memorable, and that Vichet’s attention to detail especially those cold towels kept you comfortable in the heat. I will be sure to share your high recommendation with both of them; they will be encouraged to know they made such a positive impact on your trip. We hope to welcome you back to Cambodia again soon!

Our family took a private tour of several temples including Ta Prohm ( the jungle temple) and of course Angkor Wat with our guide Bun and driver Sambath from Journey Cambodia. The tour was split into a morning portion followed by a rest at our hotel and then a late afternoon portion. The way that Bun split it up for us allowed us to avoid the midday heat and also avoid our kids getting restless! Bun was very knowledgeable about the temples as well as about modern Cambodian history and was an engaging guide. He also has a great eye for photos and got some great family shots for us. I normally wouldn't think to comment on drivers but Sambath was so helpful and kind. He always had cold towels, cold water and a smile waiting for us as we arrived back at the vehicle after each stop.
Dear Alissa, Thank you so much for sharing your family’s experience with us! We are thrilled that the split itinerary worked well for you and your children—avoiding the midday heat is definitely the best way to enjoy the temples. It’s wonderful to hear that Bun’s knowledge and photography skills added that extra spark to your tour. We will also be sure to pass you.

Pal Saruon led us to really great spots and found the best photo subjects. There was a lot of interesting and useful information about it, without it ever appearing dry. Driver Vrak was super reliable, quiet and knows the paths perfectly – and the air-conditioned minibus picked us up comfortably and brought us back safely. Always cold water was a real plus in view of the heat. Very sympathetic, relaxed and highly recommended!
Dear Toni, Thank you so much for your recommendation! We are delighted that you enjoyed the combination of interesting information and convenient service. A big thank you also on behalf of Pal Saruon and Vrak .We hope to welcome you back again soon.

We had a great day with Sok. He gave us a full explanation of recent and ancient history and pointed out many interesting points of note on the bas-relief sculptures. I wished my knowledge of Hindu Gods was better as I got a bit lost with all the stories! On a practical side the transport, lunch etc were all very good, and he suggested good places to take photos.
Dear Emma, Thank you so much for your kind words! We are delighted to hear that you had such an insightful day with Sok. He is very passionate about the bas-reliefs and the deep history of Angkor, and we’re glad he could help you find those perfect photo spots.We hope to see you again in Cambodia!

Bun is a fantastic good guide who speaks the English language excellently, explained everything perfectly and was very helpful in climbing the three temple complexes visited.

The guide was called So and he explained everything very well in English. The Driver Naro drove us to all the important spots and provided us with cooling cloths and cold water between stops.

I had an amazing day with the guide Bun and the driver Sheya in Angkor! Our group was not that big with only 7 people and they took really good care of us. The guide Bun told us so much insightful stories about the history of the places and led us, besides the main highlights, to less crowded corners where we really could enjoy the atmosphere. Everything was very well organized and they even waited for us to see the sunset. Very very good value for the money. I can highly RECOMMEND the tour operator as well as Bun and Sheya in particular!
Dear Lukas, Thank you so much for the glowing review. We are thrilled to hear that you had such a memorable day exploring Angkor with us. Bun and Sheya will be so happy to hear your kind words—they take great pride in showing our guests the hidden, peaceful corners of the temples away from the crowds. We're glad the small group size and sunset finale made it a great value for you. We hope to see you in Cambodia again soon.
