Reviews summaryBrilliant experience with Mr Chong! the tour itself was beautiful and our guide Mr Chong was soo knowledgeable and passionate about all Temples of Siem Reap - Angkor Wat, Bayon etc. The stories from the history told to us were so fascinating. we were a group of 12 individuals. highly recommend having Mr Chong as a guide and he is a great photographer too
This tour was really great!! The tour was the perfect amount of time and we saw all of the best places. The tour guide has really good English and is very good at explaining everything in an understandable way. He knew all of the best places at the temples. The bus was always perfectly waiting for us outside each temple with air conditioning and cold water. I would 100% recommend doing this tour.
I had a wonderful experience exploring the Angkor Wat temples with Chong! I did the sunrise tour, and although it was raining so we couldn’t see the actual sunrise or the equinox, we still had a great time thanks to him. Chong was incredibly sweet, attentive, and welcoming, with excellent English. He explained everything in great detail and shared so much interesting history about the temples. He also made sure we were having fun and went above and beyond to help us get the best pictures from the best spots! I really appreciated how thoughtful he was throughout the morning. It was so nice having the bus waiting between temples, so we didn’t have to walk long distances, and he made sure we had breaks for the restroom and brunch. Even though the weather wasn’t on our side, Chong’s great attitude made the experience really enjoyable. He’s a fantastic guide who clearly cares about his guests and deserves the best. Thank you, Chong, for such a memorable morning! ❤️
We visited four temples with Chong, and every single one of them was truly impressive. Despite the rainy weather, we had a great and enjoyable time. Our tour guide, Chong, was excellent. His English was very good, and he explained everything about the temples in great detail, including their history, stories, and cultural significance. Thanks to him, we learned so much and were able to appreciate the temples even more. Thank you, Chong, for your great attention and for making the tour such a memorable experience. I honestly think everyone should take this tour with Chong!
Exploring the Angkor Wat complex with our guide Se was an unforgettable experience. His knowledge of the temples' history and intricate carvings brought the ancient stones to life. Se expertly navigated the crowds and knew all the best spots for photos, capturing stunning shots we'd never have gotten ourselves. From the awe-inspiring Angkor Wat to the mystical Ta Prohm, this tour is a must for anyone visiting Siem Reap. Se's passion and expertise made it truly special – ask for him by name!
Generally speaking, whenever I travel to a new country, I prefer joining a tour to get a quick and general understanding of its history and background, while also enjoying the spontaneous interactions and conversations with fellow travelers. This tour achieved exactly that balance. There was just the right amount of historical and cultural knowledge, combined with a very relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere as a group. I’m truly grateful to Chong and every members that day for creating such wonderful memories. On a more personal level, after taking this tour, I found myself connecting with Chong’s personal story and Cambodia’s history more deeply than I had expected. It gave me a perspective and sense of connection that I hadn’t anticipated before joining the tour. If I have the opportunity in the future, I would love to come back to Cambodia and explore more of the country.
amazing tour with our guide Chong. we managed to see all the temples we hoped to and had a really informative and fun day thanks to Chong. great day out.
One of my best experiences while travelling! Chong was an excellent tour guide - knowledgable, friendly, and knew all the best spots for photos. The tour itself goes over the main temples - each were incredible and must sees while in Siem Reap. Chong also brought the tour to life with some fun activities along the way such as a monk blessing and ‘Tomb Raider’ photo posing. By the end of the day, I had also made many friends within my group. Highly recommend this tour for anyone coming to Siem Reap.
The tour was unforgettable to explore the main temples in the Angkor Wat complex together with our wonderful guide Mr. Samuth and our kind driver, who were together with us from 4:30 AM until noon in the heat outside, providing us with fresh cold water and cold towers in the cool, air-conditioned van. The sunrise, the monk blessing, and temples tour with informative guidance and fun facts from Mr. Samuth made it a meaningful and fun experience. Much appreciated!
Unforgettable experience with a great guide and driver! Our guide Mr Sen helped make this tour extremely memorable and well taken care of. Everything went smoothly, no one was left behind - especially with his special instructions and codewords! Getting up early was totally worth it, and Mr Sen showed us the best unobstructed place to see the sun rise, and then we spent the majority of the morning exploring Angkor Wat. We were able to see one more temple before a brief coffee and food break. Then two more less crowded temples followed. I’m really glad to have gotten just a taste of the different styles and designs available to see. Side note: I think going to the Angkor National Mueseum the day before also helped give a bit of extra context to appreciate the symbolism and history even more. All together super worth it to go with a local expert guide!
