Favorite Tour in CAMBODIA!
This tour exceeded our expectations! We ended up going on two tours instead of one. For our first tour, we did the Angkor Sunrise Tour: 4 temples + the death gate on bike. Though it was warm, there’s a nice breeze and I felt safer than I would on a moto. Our tour also included a short drive through the village, where we were able to see local farmers and children going about their day. For our second tour, we took an AC car to Kullen Mountain to see the waterfalls, 10,000 Lingas, Big Buddha, and Beng Mealea. Not only were we able to go swimming, but we also heard traditional Cambodian music and visited a ‘Hollywood Temple’. This temple hasn’t undergone full restoration, so there’s amazing trees and roots all about. Our tour guide was very professional and was actually a monk earlier in life at the temples. This gave him an absurd amount of knowledge about the temples, Buddhism, Hinduism, and of course Cambodian daily life. Ask for Prathna (or Mr. Brown) for your guide!
Angkor Wat sunrise cycling tour
Fantastic tour. Great guide, great bicycles & great itinerary. Starting with sunrise, then guided tour of, Angkor Wat followed by breakfast and then wonderful cycling, finishing with lunch. Included Bayon but also plenty of temples and paths away from the crowds. Many thanks to Prathna, very friendly guide who is an absolute mine of information! Cannot recommend highly enough!
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
I would highly recommend Siem Reaper tours. I was lucky enough to see sunrise at Angkor Wat with Lao (hopefully I spelt that right!) and spend the day riding around temples, seeing more of the countryside living of Siem Reap and enjoy delicious local food. Lao spoke great English and shared a bit about himself as well and I really admired how hard working he is! I enjoyed every moment and it was a fantastic introduction to Cambodia. The staff were all super lovely, helpful and young/fun! Highly recommend!
