Siem Reap · HISTORICAL TOURS
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 3 history tours worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
Spend two early starts exploring Angkor’s major and quieter temples with guides such as Sam, Vone, Sok, and Heang. Expect hotel pickup, air-conditioned transport, cold water, wet towels, sunrise at Angkor Wat, sunset at Phnom Bakheng, and a separate $62 temple pass.
“Excellent, Sok was great and very knowledgeable about all the history of the temples. It was a great experience.”
Spend nine hours beyond Angkor Wat with an English-speaking guide such as Pal, Bun, or Sak. Visit Banteay Srei’s fine carvings, atmospheric Preah Khan, Neak Pean’s island temple, and Pre Rup at sunset in an air-conditioned minibus with hotel pickup, water, and cold towels.
“Awesome experience from start to finish. Our guide Mr. Sakriya gave us the right amount of info to keep us interested throughout the day. The amount of time spent at each stop was well planned, as well as our transport and restaurant where we stopped for lunch. The tour is also flexible with the sunset and can take you to the hotel earlier if the weather isn't good. Luckily for us the sky was ok. In any case the absolute highlight are the temples, well worth visiting these key ones in the grand circuit. Thanks Journey Cambodia!!!”
Join a small group of up to 15 for an eight-hour temple day from Siem Reap. An English-speaking guide such as Sak or Pi explains the carvings and Khmer history, while an air-conditioned vehicle, cold water, and cool towels help with the heat.
“Thank you Sak tour guide & Mr Black good safe driver. This is a must do tour in addition to Angkor wat. Sak was engaging and provided many good details & history, I learnt interesting details. Sak was also a great photographer took great pictures. Cannot miss these amazing temples. I highly recommend this tour.”
Pick a temple, a lake or a kitchen.
