VERBAZINGWEKKEND VAN ANGKOR WAT: Elke bezoeker die door het tempelcomplex van Angkor Wat loopt, zal versteld staan van de uitgestrektheid (met een oppervlakte van 400 hectare). Vanwege de complexiteit en symmetrie kan de aandacht van de bezoeker worden aangetrokken of afgeleid. Van een afstand bekeken, lijkt deze grote tempel een kolossale massa te zijn met een reeks verhoogde torens, kamers, binnenplaatsen en omheiningsmuren op verschillende niveaus. De centrale toren (213 voet hoog). Angkor Wat werd oorspronkelijk gebouwd voor de hindoegod SRI VISHNU, wiens monolithische sculptuur van 3 meter hoog is afgebeeld met acht armen. Sommige pilaren op de binnenplaats hebben inscripties in het Sanskriet en de Khmer-taal. Hier is een verzameling reliëfs van Vishnu, hindoeïstische puranische gebeurtenissen, dansende apsara's en motieven op de binnenplaatsen. Het grootste religieuze bouwwerk ter wereld is omgeven door een rechthoekige gracht die 1,5 km lang en 1,3 km breed is.
FASCINERENDE GEZICHTEN: Bayon-tempel werd gebouwd in het hart van 'Angkor Thom', bedoeld om 'Mount Meru' te vertegenwoordigen, het centrum van het universum in hindoeïstische en boeddhistische overtuigingen. De naam "Bayon" was een Franse transcriptie door Europese ontdekkingsreizigers in de 19e eeuw. Geleerden associëren de figuur met 4 gezichten met de Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, die verschijnt met meerdere gezichten, een belangrijke godheid in het Mahayana-boeddhisme. De gezichten zijn echter ook in verband gebracht met de veelzijdige hindoegod 'Brahma', de schepper van het universum.
Ta Phrom werd door verschillende mensen een andere naam genoemd, sommigen noemden Jungle-tempel, sommigen noemden tomb raider vanwege de filmfilm hier. De tempel zelf ziet er echter zo onwerkelijk uit vanwege de overwoekerde bomen en de vallende stenen structuur.

Amazing experience with Ra! Such a lovely person with excellent communication skills and an abundance of knowledge. Being a family with 2 small children, Ra was very accommodating. Angkor Wat was amazing! Bonus Ra is a fabulous photographer as well :)
Hello Kathy Thank you so much for taking your time to leave us a wonderful feedback. I am pleased to hear that you had a great time during your visit. Very much appreciated. Best Regards Vanra(Ra)
Ra took us around in a vehicle (an Alphard) that was comfortable and clearly lovingly maintained. He’s a safe and skilled driver as well as a knowledgeable and experienced guide who speaks excellent English. He was considerate of the needs of the elderly in our group and we are very appreciative of him. Also, go ahead to ask Ra for food recommendations - he’ll take you to lovely local places with good food! (Ask to try warm palm cake!) Thanks so much, Ra! You made Siem Reap so comfortable for us.
Thank you very much for your kind words. I am very pleased to hear that you enjoy your trip and felt safe and comfort. Best Regards Ra
Ra was an amazing guide. Took me to several temples, coordinated pick up of my friends from the airport and bus station. Was very knowledgeable about local history and took us to various local restaurants. Very comfortable car. Would 1000% recommend doing a tour with this company.

Ra “the sun god” is the best tour guide we have had! He is an absolutely trustworthy, competent ,reliable and fluent in English.He has a great sense of humor that kept us laughing! He met us early for a tour of Cambodian temples including Ankor Wat temple,Ta Prohm temple and Bayon temple.He also took us to a local restaurant for the best Amok and coconut water.

The service was very good, it started with a well organized pick up from the airport to beautiful sights and background information about the people, history and places. Overall we felt very well received and looked after. He was also literally spot on German with Asian flexibility. He also knows how to involve the kids in the tour and gives valuable tips for photo spots. The car was clean and very comfortable. Thank you very much for the wonderful tour.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I am very pleased to hear that you enjoyed your holiday. Best Wishes Vanra
The tour and transportation was five stars. The Tour Guide had amazing humor and spoke perfect English. He made a great suggestion for lunch that did not disappoint. Would highly recommend. It was very hot, but we are Alaskans so maybe others can stand 98°F but it was a lot for us. Even with the hot weather, he moved us through the temples quickly, but not too quickly. It was just perfect! Ask for Ra!
Thanks you so much for your kind words. I am very pleased to hear that you had a wonderful time during your visit. Best Regards Vanra
We traveled with Ra to Angkor Wat and Phnom Penh as a family of 4 in December 2023. Ra is a great guide, with a lot of knowledge about Angkor Wat and its temples, but also about the history of Cambodia. He gave us great support in planning and made all of our wishes possible. From the pickup from the airport and transfer to Phnom Penh in a very comfortable van, to the many temple tours in a tuktuk or van, everything was really great! Thank you and see you next time!

This is the only review I've ever written for a travel company that I have used--that's how great of an experience my girlfriend and I just had with our tour guide, Ra. We spent 3 days with him seeing Angkor Wat, Angkor Thom, the floating village at Kompong Khleang, and many other sites and temples. It was all amazing thanks to Ra, who explained the history (ancient and recent), the meanings of the carvings in the temples, and even gave us restaurant recommendations. He was especially great at avoiding the crowds, finding perfect spots for pictures, and his english was excellent.
We toured the inner circuit of Angkor Wat with Ra and had an amazing time. He was a real pro and is so knowledgeable about Cambodian history and the history of the Angkor Wat. His English was great and his easy going demeanor made it easy to spend 5-6 hours together as we explored one of the most marvelous places I’ve ever seen. I highly recommend going with Ra on this tour!
Hello Thanks you so much for taking your time to leave a review. I am very pleased to that you had a great time during your visit. Best Regards Ra
Ra was our guide for 2 days , and we had a couple of Tuk Tuk’s which added to the adventures. Full day of temples on day 1 including Angkor Wat, then mixed it up day 2 with Ra’s advice. Took in some lesser tourist temples which were magnificent and also went to the floating villages. Visited the war memorial which is far more basic than in Vietnam and but equally as stark to take in the history. Drivers were great , friendly and always ready with cold water and cold towel when we arrived back after walking Couple of markets and the odd seller to deal with but part of the fun in Cambodia. Highly recommended.
