          Sopheak was our guide and he was great. Super friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating to our party that consisted of two adults, two children 9 and 12 and grandad 82! We made our own tour with him and the driver. No issues. Great memories. Thanks.

          A fantastic tour away from the crowds
          Our tour guide, Sopheak, was absolutely fantastic. He arrived on time and was very welcoming. He was very knowledgeable and entertaining on the drive out and back. As an added bonus he offered to use our camera to take photos of us as a couple - and did a few trick photographs as well. The tour itself is most highly recommended. Away from the crowds of Siem Reap, the quiet and solitude of these jungle temples is awe-inspiring. This is not just another Angkor Wat - there is a diversity of temples and stories. Yes, it takes a while to get there but it is well worth the time.

          Beautiful, surprising and hot!
          We have just returned from a 3 day holiday in Cambodia and the beautiful Siem Reap. Shopeak was our driver when we arrived and as we chatted he described the various trips he could arrange. We decided upon a visit to the national park, Kulen Mountain and waterfalls. The trip was so much more than we expected with amazing mountain views, hidden temples, villages and the valley of a 1000 Lingas. The swim in the waterfall was very welcome! Sopheak was a fabulous host, prompt to pick up, polite and very knowledgeable and more than happy to share this with you. We would absolutely recommend using him, his contact number is +855 17 650 808. Thank you Sopheak for taking us to see this amazing place.

          A Great Guide with a car in Seim Reap
          My wife and visited Seim Reap for three days in March 2024. Our local guide-cum- chauffeur was Sophanna (Miker) Chandra. He is a very well -informed, engaging guide who has done much study of the history and religious influences on the temples of Angkor Wat and surrounding places of interest. He was also inquisitive to learn about Hinduism and Buddhism in India and other Southeast Asian countries. Respectful, reliable and very resourceful. When he took ill on the last day when he was supposed to drive us to Phnom Penh, he not only organized a substitute, he personally came to hotel to ensure smooth transition despite being in excruciating pain. Give him a call if you want a great experience. Chandra cannot be reached via WhatsApp at +855 12 203 474

          Knowledgeable and Courteous Driver
          Sopheak was our driver for 3 days. He was flexible in helping us figure out what to do, was extremely attentive - meaning when we came out of a temple he was always there and helped manage a few handoffs here and there, e.g., to the floating villages boat, he took us to a few great places not on our radar, and was incredibly friendly and polite. Highly recommend.

          A very special memory of our time in Cambodia.
          This was a magical experience and one we won’t forget. Sopheak, our lovely guide, explained what would be happening which also enriched our experience. The blessing was meaningful and a chance to take time to think about what’s important.

          Great tour guide! Highly recommend
          Sopheak is an incredibly friendly, informative, and helpful guide who made our experience visiting Angkor wat and its surrounding attractions positively memorable. We booked a 6 hour private tour and managed to visit 4 of the 6 planned attractions. The entire experience felt organic, informative, and very fun. We were never rushed and allowed to experience the attractions at our own pace. He also took us down a few lesser known routes away from the main crowds. He provided plenty of insights about the places and spoke very fluent English. We were chauffeured everywhere in an AC car by a very good and punctual driver. Highly recommend his tour service and will reconsider if we ever go back. Very memorable.

          A perfect & well organized private trip with superb Sopheak 😀👍🏻
          🇰🇭Cambodia as of Dec 2023. It’s my 9th time to revisit this beautiful country. Since I’ve been to Angkor Wat and all the ancient temple ruins for countless time. For this 9th trip, I decided to go for some ancient places which located afar to visit both Prasat Preah Vihear & The Pyramid of Koh Ker!😀👍🏻 Whilst I only have very limited time for just over the weekend trip. I opt for a private tour since it’s not convenient in term of public transport if I would start my journey from Siem Reap to Preah Vihear which is going to take a few days trip rather than a short weekend trip. Hence, I started to look for a private trip with both transport & guide. I feel grateful that I managed to find Sopheak who’s offering a private trip to both Preah Vihear & Koh Ker from Siem Reap. He’s simply great & helpful with prompt responses from time to time even few months before the trip. Finally, on 15 Dec (Friday). Sopheak picked me up from the newly opened Siem Reap Angkor International Airport which is located not far from Phnom Kulen & about an hour from downtown of Siem Reap. I meet up Sopheak in person and I must say he's simply an awesome person to get along with. I just feel like I’m visiting an old friend. Sopheak is not only on time but arrived 15-30mins earlier before our agreed pickup time. 😀👍🏻 He never late! On 16 Dec (Saturday). Our road journey to both Preah Vihear & Koh Ker was long. However, we had lots of laughter & wonderful time traveling together on his spacious & comfortable car. Sopheak speaks excellent English, honest, knowledgeable, fast learner & helpful! I highly recommended him to everyone who wish to be in 🇰🇭Cambodia! Thank you very much (Orkun Chraen) Sopheak & can’t wait to see you again soon!😀👍🏻👋🏻

          Unforgettable and unique
          Great experience to discover Cambodian culture and its temples. Sopheak and his brother in law organized our private and customized tour of 3 days in which we got the opportunity to stay at their home! Private transfer and private english guided tour! Amazing sunrise and sunset! Really recommended!

          Sopheak is a great tour guide. He is pleasant, flexible, and very helpful giving advice on what to see and do. We did the dawn Angkor Watt, and then he accommodated our schedule and wants for the next two days. Thanks again Sopheak!

          Definitely worth visiting
          This is a must see destination for anyone with an extra day in Siem Reap The view from the cliffs, the swim in the “holy waters” of the kulen waterfall and the reclining Buddha carved out of the rock at the top of the mountain were all very special experiences. Our guide, Sopheak was a delight. He arrived punctually in a Toyota Highlander. Knowledgeable and courteous, he took us to all the good spots! We stopped on way home ( his suggestion ) at the Landmine museum. Definitely worth a visit. We had the great fortune to meet the real-life hero, Aki Ra, who has single-handedly removed tens of thousands of land mines.

        It was a great experience for seeing Angkor temples in the hard time of Covid-19. We booked the package just 12 hours before the tour started and the operator was really quick to respond us. We were actually 4 people with payment of 40s US$, this is the nicest price ever. Great driver with air-conditioned car, Ben was really great and he also giving us some information of Angkor (not just a driver).
        Thank you Ben and we' will see you again next year.

        My friend and I arrived in Siem Reap on 15 Feb having a loose plan of what we wanted to see and when. We contacted Sopheak and booked a one day tour to Angkor Wat, Bayon and Ta Phrom for 17 Feb.

        From the moment we met Sopheak, we all got on brilliantly. As well as Sopheak's vast historical knowledge of the temples, he knows the best places for photographs. And his command of English is excellent!

        He suggested that we spend about 2hrs at Angkor Wat. But as my friend and I were so engrossed in the history, the exquisite workmanship and eerily silent corridors, we spent well over 3 hours exploring. The rest of the day didn't feel rushed at all.

        In fact, we laughed lots, learnt lots and really enjoyed Sopheak's company. So much so that we booked a second day personalised trip with him where we explored Kulen Mountain, Banteay Srei, Ta Som (hands down two of the BEST temples we've seen). We learnt more about Cambodian culture, families, and way of life- all because we were keen to learn and Sopheak was happy to share.

        Sopheak learnt my friend and I are vegetarian (we love our food!) and he went out of the way to ensure that we were catered for at lunches. But he also found great places to stop for young mangoes with chilli, salt and sugar, coconut and potato hot griddled cakes, freshly cooked corn, coconut water and a village where the women made palm sugar products. He also remembered that we wanted to purchase chopping boards, and hailed a local vendor whose truck was full to the brim with wooden goods for sale at the markets. He negotiated a great price for us too!!

        Our Cambodia experience will never be forgotten all the more so due to Sopheak's kindness, humour and vast historical and cultural knowledge.

        Thank you for an unforgettable experience,

        The Angkor Wat temple tour was the best experience of my life, apart of the location being so stunning, my fabulous guide Sopheak made this trip complete, by being the best guide with his vast knowledge about history, very interesting details about country and culture and having an answer to all my questions. He is also incredibly friendly, helpful and a great photographer! I am so grateful for this experience and cannot wait to come back for more adventures with Sopheak, who even risked his life by going on a jeep tour with me driving, showing me private houses, farm and animals.
        Thank you so much Sopheak, you are the best !

        We had a fantastic driver who took us to the places we wanted to visit. He was very accommodating and was always ready for us with ice cold water! He directed us to the local guides at each site and his choices were always perfect. One member of our small group (4) had a problem walking and the driver was sure to take that into consideration at every stop. The price was more than reasonable.

        The process to book the tour was swift and easy and we were able to customize the tour according to our preferences. Young was our tour guide for the day, he arrived on time to pick us up from our hotel. We visited the sunrise at Angkor Wat and Young helped us find the best spots for great photo opportunities. Young kept the tour intersting with jokes and personal stories and sharing experinces with us. After breakfast we visited the tomb raider temple, Preah Khan, Bayon temple. Young gave a good comprehension of the Cambodian history and culture white also telling us interesting stories of each temple we visited. After the lunch break we took our time to visit Angkor Wat and Young gave us a very detailed story of the history of Angkor Wat. After almost 12 hours we were back in the hotel tired but very happy we did the guided tour with Young and learnt so much about the Cambodian people and culture that will last forever with us. We definitely recommend Sopheak and his colleagues who are very professional and knowledgeable.

        On the 2nd and 3rd day of visit, we travelled by tuk-tuk, which is as convenient as a car if you get a good driver.

        Since I was a child, I wanted to see Angkor Wat. The driver was on time, he knew english, 8/10 and he knew just the perfect location to see the sunrise over the temple.

        He was not in a rush. I will recommend this tour.

        We came to Siam Reap with our 4-year-old son and only had one day to try and see Angkor Wat and some of the other magnificent temples. We hired Sopheak based on the recommendation of some close friends from Bangkok and he was the perfect guide for our visit. He met us at our hotel at 8am and had a smart strategy and ideal itinerary for how we could maximize what we could see in one day while also avoiding some of the infamous crowds around Angkor Wat. We thoroughly enjoyed the three main stops on our tour and Sopheak knew exactly how to hit all of the interesting spots and ideal photo vantage points. He is very knowledgeable, helpful, and flexible. The cold water he brought came in handy on a hot day and he even went back to the car for cold water when our son wanted a cold drink. He also guided us to an excellent lunch spot during our lunch break. I would highly recommend him for any/all Cambodia tours. When our son is older, we would love to come back and do one of Sopheak’s bicycle trek tours!
