Experience the best of
Siem Reap with Withlocals

"Our guide, Oun insisted that we rise early to get to Angkor Wat for sunrise. We’re so glad we did. This is a magical place with an unbelievable story to tell. Our guide was knowledgeable and willing to tailor the tour to our needs. "

"We did a sunrise tour with Long, and we were not disappointed. It was the first day of Khmer New Year and we saw all the local dignitaries getting ready to welcome the king to Angkor Wat. What a once in a lifetime experience for us and our two kids aged 10 and 8. Long was very knowledgeable about Cambodian history and told us some amazing stories about Buddhism and Hinduism. Our kids really enjoyed those stories, as did we! "

"My partner (both 28) and I had a great time with Dorn on our tour which was over Cambodian new year. Many of the normal spots were shut so Dorn took us to a more secluded collection of stops. The food was really good, but moreso Dorn's explanation of the different cuisines and Cambodian influence in food. He then took us round the town for Cambodian new year, to show us how everyone celebrated. It was overall great fun! Thanks Dorn."

"Oun toured Angkor Wat, Baphuon, Ta Prohm and two lesser known temples in Angkor Thom with us. He was thoughtful and tailored the content well for my wife and me, as well as for our two girls. The logistics worked perfectly too. We visited in a tuk tuk that had been specially built and driven by his brother. Overall, a first-class experience and would highly recommend to other travelers. Going without another group meant we could adjust the pace according to everyone’s interest levels which was a big plus. Oun grew up in the area, and his dad worked as a security guard at one of the Angkor Thom temples. Very good English too. "

"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!"
