Experience this private day tour to Angkor Wat Temple and get to explore the best of the major and must-visit temples around Angkor Complex (Angkor Wat Temple, Angkor Thom, Bayon Temple, North Gate of Angkor Thom, and The well-known Angelina Jolie Film Shooting at Ta Prom Temple).
"Pok is a true local, having been born only hundreds of meters from the Angkor Wat Temple and its complex.
Throughout the day and 3 major temples he demonstrated to us his deep knowledge of the temples, their histories, the myths pictured within it and their significance to the Khmer people. He has facts upon facts upon facts and his knowledge of dates especially is astounding.
Pok is also a very warm and friendly host with an infectious laugh who exemplifies the Khmer hospitality. We felt looked after at all times and were grateful for his company throughout the day.
We're grateful to have met Pok and had a real local talk us through Angkor Wat."
"Long was exceptional as our guide for the foodie tour. We enjoyed learning about the local food along with him sharing his knowledge about Cambodia. We really appreciated that he took us to local restaurants but also to the local food street where families from the area come to set up their street food stand. It was a truly amazing experience. And to also learn about how these families are trying to support themselves and their families. We would definitely recommend Long. It was a pleasure to get to know him. "
"Ngoun is your perfect personal guide in Siem Reap. We had booked him for a two-day trip. The first day, he picked us up early to see the sunrise over Angkor Vat, which was truly amazing. The next day we explored surrounding sights. Ngoun is knowledgeable and pleasant to be with. He knows the area and adjusts according to the circumstances. For example, when he saw that several tour buses were headed to a particular sight, he changed the sequence of our visit so that we avoided the crowds. I can very much recommend Ngoun."

"I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the Ultimate Angkor Wat Tour, led by the incredible Oun. From start to finish, Oun made the entire experience unforgettable. His extensive knowledge of the temples, history, and local culture was evident in every explanation, making the tour both educational and engaging. He took the time to ensure I understood the significance of each temple I visited and was always happy to answer our questions with patience and enthusiasm.
What really stood out was Oun's warm and friendly demeanor. He made sure I was comfortable, offering helpful tips, water bottles and recommendations throughout the day. The tour itself was expertly planned, allowing me to explore Angkor Wat, Bayon, and other stunning temples at a comfortable pace, avoiding the crowds when possible. At some point, he even stopped to a temple where I was completely alone, giving me time to explore those stunning ancient ruins!
Oun's passion for the history and heritage of the area was contagious, and he truly enhanced our experience by sharing personal stories and insights that you wouldn't find in a guidebook. He also speak perfect English, being a english teacher himself! I highly recommend this tour and especially Oun as a guide. His expertise, kindness, and enthusiasm made this one of the most memorable travel experiences I've had. If you're planning to visit Angkor Wat, Oun is the guide you want by your side!"
"We had great day with Pok. He is very knowledgeable, passionate about the history of his country and simply great fun to spend time with. He was also concerned about our preferences and was very flexible. We highly recommend him. Thanks for a great day in Siem Reap, Pok!"
"We had a wonderful tour with Long sewing the markets, temples and other local sites around Siem Reap. He’s a great guide and I highly recommend hiring him!"
"We enjoyed all Ngoun (Lux) shared on our tour. We especially enjoyed his insights into the local culture, religion, and political dynamics. We traveled on foot and by tuk tuk to see a lot in a short amount of time! Highly recommended!"
"We highly recommend this tour! We just came back from our travels and this was miterally the highlight of our trip. Not only was the tour amazing but we got so much background on everything we saw. Lux was the best and made our travel memorable. He knows where to go and we even did a temple where we were alone! Also don't hesitate to book a sunset tour! "
"We did two tours with Lux, he is very knowledgeable about his country.
I would only like to say that if you book a sunrise tour you should charge the price in full. And not add the price for the sunrise later. It’s confusing. "
