Small-Group Explore Angkor Wat Tour with Guide from Siem Reap (6-7h)

The trip to Angkor Wat was simply stunning and made even more enjoyable by our guide, Marin who was very knowledgeable and gave us lots of interesting facts around the history of Angkor Wat and other temples. He also knew the best vantage points to take some stunning photos. We had a brilliant day and I would recommend this tour.

Lovely visit! I enjoyed a lot! Small group, 5 Pax. Incredible temples and such a nice and helpful guide Toun Marin was always looking after us and showing us the best spots ! Marin was very knowledgeable and gave us a lot of details of the temples and history . He was also a nice photographer! Specially nice if you travel alone and want to have the best shots ! Nice minivan with AC and cold free water , was driving us from temple to temple .

This was one of the best tours I went on in Siem Reap. You'll find no shortage of people offering a similar tour of the major Angkor sites -- Angkor Wat, Ta Prohm, Bayon, and a few additional miscellaneous sites for $15-$20pp. What makes this tour great is the level of customer service. The guide (Sothea) was very friendly, from hotel pick-up to hotel drop-off. He was timely, gave just the right amount of history and talked about each of the sites as we saw them, and was pleasurable to be around. He always looked out for each of the people on the tour to make sure they saw everything and that they didn't get lost (although a few did, sorry Sothea!). Having been on other tours in Siem Reap with other companies, two things really stand out on why you should tour with Sothea / Green Era: 1) He is generous with water bottles. EVERY site stop, Sothea and the bus driver were physically handing out water and making sure everyone had a nice cold bottle of water to take with them. Compared to the cost of the tour, a few bottles of water are cheap, but make for an enjoyable experience as it is hot walking around in the sun for hours. I was on 2 other full day tours with other companies, and the guides hoarded water like you'd guard a pile of cash -- rationing out 1 single bottle per person for the whole day. One literally even asked me what I thought I was doing when I grabbed a second bottle mid-day. Sothea's water generosity in looking after his guests' health & comfort definitely stood out among his peers. 2) Pictures! Our group happened to be 4 couples and a trio. Sothea was always offering photos, photos, and more photos. That's what you come to a place like Angkor Wat to do, take photos to remember your trip. The other company tour guides rushed everyone along, never offered to take photos for couples, and on one tour the guide even refused when a couple asked (claiming he "wasn't good at taking photos"). Looking through my album, Sothea probably took about 60 photos for my travel buddy and me. My tours with other companies? Zero :( If my words aren't enough, you can look at tips. When Sothea dropped everyone off, he got out, opened the door for them, thanked them for choosing him as their tour guide, and without request EVERY couple passed him $5-$10. My 2 tours with other companies, on one nobody at all tipped the guide, and the other everyone only gave a dollar when the guide directly said it was "time to tip". Choose Green Era & Sothea, you'll be happy.

We were collected from our hotel by minivan by our tour guide for the day Vichet at around 8am. There were only 6 in our group. We soon arrived at the Angkor Wat park as it is quite near the city. We spent all morning visiting different temples which were simply stunning. After each temple we only had a short walk to our waiting minivan where were were met with bottles of cold water - very welcomed as it was a very hot day. At 12 we drove to one of the many restaurants where we had a fantastic meal. After an hour we set off again in the minivan to Angkor Wat temple where we spent around 2 hrs looking at the most preserved of the temples. Our guide Vichet was great throughout the tour and was very knowledgeable about all the temples and the history of Cambodia. He explaining everything to us in an interesting and humorous way.I felt the tour was great value and I would definitely recommend Green Era travel. Ask for Vichet when you book.

Excellent, he's very friendly,good English and knowledge. He helped us took photos and take care of everybody.

My first time to visit Siem Reap, Cambodia and it was amazing. And with the help of our tour guide Mr. Sokvichet Chin who explained the story, history of Ankor Wat and interesting events here in Cambodia. Very knowledgable and friendly tour guide and he treat all of us very well (our small group of 8). I will recommend Green Era Travel company for having a good package tour offer and of course Mr.Chin as a tour guide. Job well done ????????????

We have had the best day and would highly recommend this tour and especially our tour guide Vichet. He was extremely friendly, considerate and had excellent knowledge with great English. He made sure that everyone’s needs were catered for, and always asked us what we wanted to see and how long for. This made it a lot more comfortable as it was a very hot day! Vichet also ensured we beat the rush and crowds at the restaurant for lunch!

Our guide, Mr Phearom, was excellent, very friendly, funny, informative, knowledgable and patient. He made sure that the tour ran on time. The driver was always punctual. Great value for money!

Phearom is a friendly tourist guide. He is enthusiastic and helps us a lot. I am very pleased with him
