Preah Ang Thom is an 8 meters (26 ft) tall statue of the reclining Buddh reaching nirvana. The statue is carved into a huge natural sandstone boulder to which a modern staircase has been added along with a shelter over the Buddha.

Tan was a phenomenal tour guide! He made our tour a great one. He came fully prepared with towels and water. We loved every moment of our tour.
I had a wonderful private tour to Kulen mountain with Tann. My original booking was for Kbal Spean but Tann convinced me to visit Kulen mountain instead and assured me that we could do it within my time constraints and without a significant increase in cost. I am SO glad that I took his advice! We saw amazing viewpoints, waterfalls and the 1000 lingas. Tann took me to great spots for photos and even took great pictures of me. He was thoughtful, charming and full of interesting information. He even provided water and local fruits and snacks. I truly had an enjoyable day and felt secure and entertained without being overly rushed. I highly recommend this tour to other travelers.
We had a wonderful, beautiful and interesting day with our guide Tann. Punctually at 7:40 we started. Even the trip overland was great and very appealing. First we drove to the viewpoint Pongh Tag Kho. Simply incredible: what a view of the green mountains. Then we went to the river with the sacred stone reliefs - wonderful. We continued to the temple and the highlight was certainly the waterfall with picnic and swimming. The picnic was a dream with many typical local treats. Tann is a highly educated connoisseur of culture and speaks perfect English. We learned a lot about the culture and history. We can only highly recommend him Brigitte & Berni L. from Germany

Tann Sopheap is a very kind, polite, and most importantly, professional tourist guide. He arranged the tour perfectly for us. We saw two more temples far from the city. One of the temple was beautiful with its well preserved carvings and inscriptions. The other one was impressive because it remains how it was when people found it in the first place. No restoration. Every building was clad in green with trees as their guardians. They are both beautiful and impressive. The best thing is there was few people coming. So the whole trip was peaceful and quiet. We can appreciate everything in slow fashion. No rush at all. The waterfall and one thousand linga river are impressive as well. Worthy to visit! Highly recommended!
Dear James H, Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re thrilled to hear that you had such an unforgettable experience with Tann Sopheap as your guide. It’s great to know that you enjoyed the peacefulness and beauty of the temples, especially the untouched one with its natural surroundings. We aim to provide a serene and unhurried experience, so we’re glad you could appreciate everything at your own pace. The waterfall and the thousand linga river are truly special, and we’re happy you found them worthy of the visit. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you again on another adventure!
