Angkor Wat Sunrise Small-Group Tour from Siem Reap (6-7h)

Awesome tour. Everything was excellently planned. Lonh was awesome and had a lot of great photo ideas haha

We did the Angkor Wat Sunrise tour with Samnang. Originally we had another tour guide but he had to leave as his daughter was poorly. He told us where to wait and we sat and had breakfast and about an hour later Samnang arrived. He took us around Angkor Wat and many other close by temples as well as the famous Ta Prohm where Tomb Raidor was filmed. Samnang knew so much about the temples and shared many detailed facts and answered our questions well. He also took us to a lovely restaurant for lunch. We had thought that this tour was a group tour but it was only the two of us, maybe because the tour had not been as busy during low season. Overall it was a great tour with a friendly guide.

The trip is excellent! We were collected from our hotel at 4.30 by Mr Van Lohn and taken to watch the sunrise. When we arrived it was extremely busy and Me Vanh Lohn took us to a quiet scenic place to watch the sunrise. After this he dropped us home to have breakfast and recollected ya at 8:15. The rest of the tour was amazing! Mr Van Lohn’s knowledge of the site is incredible and he did everything to make the experience memorable. He took us to all he quiet places; which were less busy but had equally amazing views. He also took some amazing photos of us. It was a fabulous day, made truely amazing by Mr Van Lohn. Would throughly recommend.

After a sleepy and grumbling start at 4:30, we found ourselves in a comfortable, climate controlled minivan with staff (Mr Van Lonh and our driver Borey) who were upbeat, enthusiastic and entertaining. Our dawn view of Angkor Wat was made all the more spectacular by being taken off the beaten track to a special spot. This was common practice throughout the day. We were taken through the entrances and exits to the temples were most tourists weren't, and our guide, Mr Lonh, even considered the arc of the sun for taking photos at specific points. He was charming, funny and knowledgeable. An entire day trapsing around an enormously complex such as this is daunting to even seasoned travellers. The expertise of our guide and his driver meant that we spent our time efficiently, and for the utmost out of our visit to Angkor Wat, Angkor Tom, and the jungle temple.

Today's trip to Angkor Wat was fantastic. We woke up around 4 for a beautiful sunrise our-got there early enough for some of the best seats! Then we were kindly transported back to our hotel to enjoy breakfast, and picked up again to see Angkor's most famous temples. Our guide, Mr. Van Lonh from green era travel, was the best. He gave great descriptions of everywhere visited and knew all of the best photo spots. I couldn't have asked for a better trip to Angkor Wat!!

To be honest, it was quite a disappointing experience. First of all, one of the other tourist was late getting up, which pushed everyone's schedule back and the sky was bright already when we reached Angkor Wat. It was cloudy that day, so maybe the sunrise would've stayed hidden anyway, but I would never know will I? Additionally, I was expecting the tour guide to tell us more about the history on the temples we visited, but that was also not the case. When we were free to roam, I found myself tagging after OTHER tour guides to gleam any information that I could. So yes, it was an overall a very disappointing experience. I strongly suggest that all participants be warned that late shows shall be left behind on the confirmation/receipt whatever. It is unfair for others to suffer and missed out on what they paid for because of one inconsiderate person.

We were picked up on time by our friendly guide, Sarat, and our driver Mr Channa. Sarat was very knowledgeable and he explained everything to us as we walked around Angkor Wat and the other temples. It was a very hot day but our driver made sure we had lots of water and the aircon in the van was going. We learnt lots about each site we visited and had a really enjoyable time. We found it beneficial to have a guide rather than just walking around as he was able to explain things to us in detail. This is a worthwhile tour.

I was absolutely gob smacked with the sunrise at Angkor Wat! As night turned to day I thought it was beautiful watching the temple slowly appear. Thinking that was it I was quite satisfied. Then all of a sudden the sun, huge and amazing appeared. It was without a doubt the best sun rise I had ever seen. The temples were interesting but our trip was rushed, I hope to explore it more one day.

The tour guide picked me up at my hotel on time at 4:30am.Before he arrived I was worrying if they didn't manage the time that let me miss the timing to see the sunrise.The tour guide took us (4 people in our group) to buy the ticket for that day due to some didn't buy day-pass before the tour. I couldn't believe that the ticket office still open at 4:30am.The sunrise was awesome! It's the best sunrise I've ever seen. We was seeing it at the outside of Angkor Wat.After seeing sunrise, the tour guide decided to take us to Angkor town instead of walking in to the Angkor Wat. He said that because lots of people visiting Angkor Wat after seeing the sunrise. If we also going into, then it would be hard to take great photos.He was looking after us very carefully. He also knew where and how we can take great photos.Thanks my tour guide Sarat for giving me a fabulous Angkor Sunrise trip.
