        Cooking with guidance from locals
        This was an excellent experience to learn about local cuisines from local women and then eat a substantial three course meal that we prepared ourselves. All the ingredients were super fresh, many picked from the garden at the house. Highly recommend this experience.

        Excellent cooking experience
        Had a great experience learning to cook some traditional Cambodian Khmer dishes. Sivron was an excellent teacher showing us how to make the dishes. I have a nut allergy and when advised they adjusted the dishes to ensure I was ok eating them.

        The best cooking class I’ve taken so far in Southeast Asia! Super informative and King Kong was the best teacher. Got to walk through the local market and garden as well as pick what meals we wanted to cook.

        Fantastic trip
        Fantastic trip. Really interesting. Great to walk around the village, see the people, witness their loves. The canoe ride, although a little extra was Definately worth it. The tour guide Paul was extremely good. He liaised ahead of time, arrived on time and always was so helpful and smiling. He gave us interesting information about the village and the trip and his English was very good. I’ve been a tour guide myself and I appreciate it when I experience a good one. Everyone else on the trip with us had a great trip. One of the highlights of Siem Reep.

        Cooking in Local House
        We cooked with Kong, who was amazing! He started by walking us through the garden, telling us about each plant and picking what we would need for our meals as we went. We cooked four dishes, all of which were delicious!

        Amazing experience with the locals!
        Amazing experience with the locals. The entire team took really great care of us, including tuktuk driver, to the cooking class team. Truly recommended, but here is a small tip - if you want to help thid small business a bit more, book directly with them via Google and not through the third party agency. Can't recommend them more!

        Amazing 8h tour
        We had an amazing tour with Praim today. Pick up on time at the hotel, water, history. He is a kind man and gives a ton of informations about the local culture and the history of the temples. We saw the sunrise on Angkor Wat and it was sublime, we’ll remember it for a long time. Plus he took pictures of us a few times. This activity is a must! 5 star guide 🤩

      The Small-Group Angkor Wat Sunrise Tour was an unforgettable experience! Watching the sunrise over Angkor Wat was absolutely magical, and the early start was well worth it to see the temples before the crowds arrived. Our tour guide, Mr. T, made the experience even better—he was incredibly knowledgeable about the history and architecture of the Angkor complex, but also super funny, keeping the group entertained throughout the tour. His storytelling skills brought the temples to life and made the entire journey so enjoyable.

      The itinerary was well-planned, covering highlights like Ta Prohm, Angkor Thom, and the Terrace of the Elephants. Having a guide like Mr. T ensured we didn’t miss any key details while exploring these iconic sites. At just AU$30.06 per person, this tour was fantastic value, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Siem Reap. Be sure to request Mr. T for a tour filled with laughs and amazing insights!

      The Angkor Wat tour was nothing short of extraordinary! From start to finish, the tour was perfectly organised, and every detail was thoughtfully planned.

      Chong was incredibly knowledgeable, providing fascinating historical insights and captivating stories about Angkor Wat and the surrounding temples. He went above and beyond to make the experience enriching and enjoyable, answering all our questions with patience and passion. Chong is a beautiful human and great humoured guide. He’s a skilled photographer sharing hints how to get the best photos from the best spots.

      The itinerary was well-paced, allowing us to fully soak in the beauty and grandeur of the temples without feeling rushed. The sunrise tour of Angkor Wat was breathtaking—a truly magical moment I’ll never forget.

      Transportation was seamless, and the comfort of the vehicles made the journey stress-free.

      I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Siem Reap—it’s an unforgettable journey into history and culture. Thank you for creating such a memorable experience!”

      Just returned from an all day guided tour of Angkor Wat
      We started at 4:30 am and our tour guide Chanthy Touch (aka Indiana Jones) was exceptionally good at making sure we did not get held up by any of the larger groups around us.
      We were kept well watered and provided with cold towels that made a big difference on such a hot day. Chanthys commentary was both personal and informative. Well worth booking would strongly recommend

      Noy was the best tour guide I’ve ever had! On top of being very funny and making sure the group stuck together he was one of the most educational tour guides I heard giving a tour in Angkor Wat. He had detailed information not just on the temples but on the actual history on Hinduism and Buddhism. He explained everything in an educational funny way and made the trip enjoyable for everybody. He made sure the group stuck together and when I fell asleep on the steps for the sunrise he made sure to wake me up. I would recommend him to anybody looking for a great guide. He was passionate about what he does and I think that’s what made it so enjoyable. Because he is enjoying what he is doing and made it much more enjoyable for everyone else as well. Also, he made sure to avoid the large crowds and take us in the back entrances of all the temples. He knew all the best routes and ways to go to avoid all the crowds but we still got all the best pictures.

      Thank you Noy for an amazing day and I hope to see you again!

      I would also highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a great way to spend the day while also not spending an arm and a leg on a private tour guide. The small group was PERFECT.

      This tour was great. Mr T our tour guide was very communicative and gave us an in depth lesson on the history of the temples but was also really funny. We managed to miss a lot of the big queues and although we were waiting for the sunrise it meant we were first on the lake to view it. One thing to note is the lunch is at a slightly more expensive lunch spot ($7 for food), but just bring your own food if you don’t want to buy. Always had water to give us and toilet breaks when we needed. The bus was very comfortable and the driver Mr T 2 was very good and never made us feel unsafe.

      This half day trip is a fantastic introduction to the temples, and well worth the early start to see sunrise at Angkor Wat.

      We got picked up around 4.30am and the food stop is after visiting the 1st 2 temples around 9.30am ish, so make sure you back a snack if you're likely to get hungry.

      Our guide was Chanthy aka Indiana Jones and our Driver James Bond. Throughout the trip these guys made it seemless, & we were known as the Indiana Jones family for the day 😄 Chanthy was very informative, and made sure we had time to explore and get all the photos we wanted, he also took photos for everyone in all the good spots.

      We ended up getting the 3 day Angkor Heritage pass so we could return and do some more temples at our own pace, however this trip was an excellent place to start, and would highly recommend. A must do especially if you're on a tight timeline.

      A special bonus there were lots of lovely folks from around the globe on our tour, so it was great to have a chat, even if the trip was only half a day it made it a memorable experience.

      P.s we got recommeded to visit the Amazon Angkor Hotel for evening buffet and traditional dancing show, check it out if you have the time we really enjoyed that too!!

      We had a great time in the company of our extraordinary guide Mr. T!!!
      He took the time to explain to us the differences entered each temple, give us small reminders about the hostory of Cambodia, and all this with humor and relaxation.
      I recommend this tour, it is a very good value for money to visit the main temples and see a beautiful sunrise.

      Awesome experience seeing Angkor Wat at Sunrise. This tour is smart to get you there early, about an hour before sunrise, to secure the best location for photos. Mr. T was our host and was very funny, educational, and kept our group moving to see all the sites before big crowds showed up. You get to see 4 sites including Bayon Temple which was my favorite. You also stop to eat breakfast at an authenticate Cambodia restaurant with fair prices.

      our guide chong was so amazing he took us all around the best spots and was very dedicated to making sure we got all the best photos at each temple including tips on where to get the best angle for the sunrise which was much appreciated by all!! we went to 5 temples, the 3 main ones and then also a big gate and one of his personal favourites. we learnt so much about the construction of the temples and about the different religions and how they influenced the khmer people and the infrastructure over time. the buildings were all very impressive and i especially enjoyed ta phrom the tomb raider temple because the overgrown trees were so cool. it was a big rough being up from 3am but mr chong kept the spirits high in the group and we all felt a lot better after our brunch stop at a nearby restaurant which was a little pricy but to be expected at such an attraction. i really enjoyed all the personal anecdotes chong offered throughout the day about his life in cambodia and experiences including some stories about the killing fields which were very sobering. overall i really enjoyed this experience, the people were great and i made some good friends and chong was constantly working to ensure that we were all enjoying ourselves whilst at the same time allowing us to understand the sacred beauty of these religious sites.

      The highlight of my Angkor Wat experience: the more than 8 hours sunrise tour to Angkor Wat with our guide nicknamed "Indiana Jones". Even before the tour started (4.30 am) he was there for us, got in contact with us (on WhatsApp), contacting the members of the group, giving advice about the entrance ticket and helping solve all the problems related to it. The tour: Keeping a group together in the dark is not easy but "Indy" has his strategies and no one got lost. Instead he found the time to help a lost member from another group. The tour was organised in a way that we went through the temples entering and exiting at different points without having to go back and forth in the already crowded temples. We had time to explore on our own as well as guidance with explanations that helped us understand Khmer culture and art. All the time our guide shared his knowledge in an entertaining, interactive way, he was helpfull  and patient when we as a group needed it and transmitted his own enthusiasm to us. All in all I was completely satisfied with the tour and have already started recommending it to others.
