Get ready for a hike but its all worth it. Long day but so much to do and the guide was great water and cold towels were appreciated covered alot of my bucket lists checked a lot of boxes would very recommend
We had a personal tour of Angkor Wat with Mr.Lioun guide from Hidden Angkor Tour and it was fabulous. He and his excellent driver picked us up from our hotel at 4.45am, so that we were in the perfect place to watch the sunrise over Angkor Wat. It was magical. Then we began our tour of four of the main temples and more small temples than we could count. What Lion doesn't know about the temples isn't worth knowing. He weaves information about the history with stories about Kings, wars and religions, making him a first class story teller and guide. He was a warm, friendly and knowledgeable guide who makes a special place even more special. Highly recommend this tour.

At 4:30 AM, we were collected by Sophia, who skillfully transported us to an ideal location for witnessing the sunrise at Angkor Wat. From 5:00 to 6:00 AM, we observed the sun rising and transforming the surrounding light and scenery, which was truly remarkable. Even during the low (wet) season, the views were stunning, and as an added advantage, there were no large crowds—approximately only 100 people were present for the sunrise. We remained at Angkor Wat until around 8:30 AM before proceeding to the next temples. By 11:00 AM, we had visited three temples and took a well-deserved break for a delightful brunch and restroom stop. After visiting the final temple, we returned to the hotel by 2:00 PM. We walked approximately 10 kilometers, making for a long but extraordinary day, further enhanced by Sophia's extensive knowledge. The private tour allowed us to set our own pace, ask questions, and gain a wealth of information, which we thoroughly enjoyed.

I had a great tour experience with Hidden Angkor Tours, most especially because of my guide, Sothoun. Sothoun took great care in making sure I understood the history of each of the temples and the significance of the many carvings, statues and architecture. Our driver, Mr. Lee provided us with safe passage, as well as cold towels and bottled water. I strongly suggest you request Sothoun as your guide. You won’t be disappointed.

We did the Sunrise Private Angkor Tour. Lion, our tour guide, was amazing! I’ve been on a couple tours this trip and this was BY FAR the most incredible. First of all, wow, the locations were gorgeous! All the temples included on this tour are a perfect overview day. But what made it even more amazing was how knowledgeable, enthusiastic and informative Lion is. He took us through very interesting aspects of the temples I would never have noticed, or been able to appreciate without his explanations. He kept me engaged and amazed. The car service was wonderful and he was very accommodating. I would recommend this tour and Lion to anyone and everyone! Thank you so much Lion and Hidden Angkor Tour!

Brilliant day trip to Angkor temples. Was blown away by our tour with Hidden Angkor Tour today. We visited a handful of temples including Angkor Wat at sunrise and our tour guide Thavin knew exactly how to make this experience special for us. He was very knowledgeable, charismatic and spoke perfect English, and took us on all the best paths throughout the tour to avoid crowds while still sightseeing and learning greatly. Thanks Thavin and Hidden Angkor Tour

Very polite and have a sense of humor. Had many laughs. They provided me with water, Soo good to hop in an air-conditioned vehicle after walking around the temples in the heat. They take us to a great restaurants for lunch. Food was amazing. I would definitely recommend them for any tours especially private tours. Thank you Theavy at Hidden Angkor Tour.

Today we had a private tour with Hidden Angkor Tour for both the sunrise viewing at Angkor Wat followed by a tour of several other temples including Angkor Thom, Bayon, and the "Tomb-Raider" Temple to name a few. Out driver Vandy, and tour guide Veasna were absolutely exceptional. Veasna's knowledge of the area and temple history is incredible. Not only this but he also was incredibly patient and happy to educate us on the Buddhist religion and other traditional Cambodian history. An absolutely wonderful day and I could not recommend it any higher.

Well-organized tour itinerary by Hidden Angkor Tour. Our day trip was great! Our guide Buntheun and the driver Sophan were professional and very accommodating. A particular highlight was Buntheun’s passion and knowledge about each location and his humour that added to the experience. It can get a bit hot during the day, however Buntheun and Sophan are happy to spend as long or as little time at each temple location. Every time you get back to the car you are welcomed with a cold refresher towel and aircon to help conquer the heat. I would highly recommend touring with them.

Just finished a day tour with tour guide Vutha here in Siem Reap, and he is probably the best tour guide anyone could find in Cambodia! He brought us to every temple imaginable and avoided all the crowds with his impeccable timing. Surprisingly, compared to most tour guides, Vutha helps in taking excellent photos. He is incredibly knowledgeable and so kind. Like everyone else mentioned, being in his air-conditioned car with free water and cold towels is a life saver in this Cambodian heat. Would definitely recommend Vutha and Hidden Angkor Tour to anyone looking for a guide in Siem Reap! Thank you Vutha!
