About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Companion602942533660 contributionsFirst time Cambodia adevnture!We were a group of 6 adults, various ages and mobility. Hiek is an extremely knowledgeable guide, easy to understand (my 77 year old father who struggles with any accent understood Hiek beautifully!). Hiek knows his history, is filled with interesting facts about the country, and is will to share even the darker parts of Cambodias past - remember the past so we don’t repeat it! By the end of our trip, he felt like one of the group!!! If you are looking for a knowledge and interesting (and funny!) guide book with Hiek!Written February 5, 2025
- 600timob0 contributionsWould recommendBooked a private Sunrise Tour with my wife and we had a great time. He teached us a lot about the history of Angkor and Cambodia. He knew about the best places to go, where not to many tourists went. He also took great pictures of us. We would always book him again it was a great time.Written December 28, 2024
- Paola F0 contributionsOne day tour in Angkor Wat with Pin as a private guideA very professional and pleasant guide who accompanied us in a light and informed way throughout the day on our visit to Angkor Wat. kind and thoughtful, he respected our silences without overwhelming us with words and always responded adequately to our questions. He is also a very good photographer and gave us one of the most beautiful photographic reports we have had on our travels.Written December 21, 2024

- ThePiccolos0 contributionsThe BEST tour in Siem ReapExcellent tour with Thean (guide) and Thuna (driver). They took wonderful care of us, kept us cool, and tailored the experience to our needs and interests. They were so friendly and funny, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to explore Siem Reap’s temples.Written November 24, 2024

He was very bubbly and answered any questions we had and accommodated in helping us get the best views and shots for our photosWritten November 20, 2024
- alexsD6401KU0 contributionsBest private tour you can Imagine!!!Our tour of Angkor Wat with Mr. Thean and Mr. Chan was absolutely unforgettable! From start to finish, they made sure that every part of the experience was seamless, enjoyable, and filled with fascinating insights. Mr. Thean, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable about the history, culture, and intricate details of Angkor Wat and the surrounding temples. He shared stories and insights that brought the ancient ruins to life and took us to hidden spots where we could take in the beauty away from the crowds. Mr. Chan, our driver, was professional and attentive, ensuring we were comfortable and refreshed between temple visits with cold water and a friendly smile. Both of them were warm, accommodating, and flexible with the schedule, making it feel like a truly tailored experience. I couldn’t have asked for a better team to explore Angkor Wat with—it was like traveling with friends who happened to be experts in Cambodian history and culture. If you’re considering a tour of Angkor Wat, book with Mr. Thean and Mr. Chan for an unforgettable journey. Highly recommend!Written November 10, 2024
- Trip184994364150 contributionsJust great!We booked the big Ankhor Wat tour with Ankhor Special Tour. The tour was beautiful and each temple was unique on its own site. I would especially like to thank Mr Thean and Mr LeeHov for the great 2 days and the many stories about Ankhor Wat and the culture of Cambodia.Written October 30, 2024
- Curious612667605190 contributionsGet Pin to be your tour guidePin was awesome, the best tour guide I ever had. We did the small tour which had angler wat, Angkor them, and jungle temple and it was amazing. Pin was well versed in Cambodian history. Archeological history, and current socioeconomical history. Also fun as hell and takes photos like he should work for National Geographic he’s that good. A for the dayWritten October 28, 2024
- Razzman560 contributionsGreat cultural and indigenous experienceHave had a marvellous 2 days with tour guide Pin Vannak. His fluency in English and his incredible knowledge of the sites we visited and the lives of rural Cambodians was very enlightening as well as our discussions on the history of Cambodia. His insights provided more than anything I have read in a history book. His incredible knowledge of how the temples were built and the detail that is involved in keeping the temples from cracking or twisting given they are only built on sand is intriguing not to mention learning of how much manual labour went into building the temple’s moats etc. Fascinating. Also marvellous was how he manoeuvred us around to see the special sights of the temples that would have been missed if I had visited on my own. He is a true professional and even did the small things that help so much ie having a power bank that could charge any phone, cold water on board, assistance with getting in and out of the van and in and out of boats not to mention advice on local customs so I did not feel clumsy or ignorant. He was an absolute joy as was his professional driver and the very late model air conditioned comfortable people mover he provided. I remain very grateful for having met him.Written October 19, 2024
- 594claren0 contributionsPin was the perfect guide!I had the most amazing trip around the Angkor Archaeological area with my guide, Pin. His English is excellent and he told me about the history of the Cambodian people, why the different temples were built and the significance of the Hindu and Buddist religions in the construction. He knew exactly where to go to get the best views, avoid the large noisy bus tour groups, and was so wonderful at taking photos of me to look back on when I go home. I would highly recommend Pin to take you round as he is an excellent and knowledgeable guide. I spent a whole day going round 3 temples and I was in awe. Pin made the visit so easy as he navigated us around and through the temple complexes. They are so big you could get lost! When I am back to see more, I will be getting Pin to show me round again!Written October 11, 2024

We had an amazing experience with Angkor special tours. From the first email, the team was very responsive and helped us choose the right itinerary.
Special mention about our guide Mr. THEAN who was very knowledgeable about the history of every place we visited. He explained patiently the story behind every structure and sculpture and made it enjoyable. His witty way of explaining history made us pay full attention and made the whole experience unforgettable.
Our driver Mr. Tuna took care of us with his safe driving and offering us cold water and towels after every temple visit on a hot sunny day.
Overall an amazing experience and will highly recommend Angkor special tours.

This tour was so amazing and we were so glad that we opted for a private tour. Our tour guide, Thean, was so very knowledgeable - like a walking encyclopedia! We overheard what some other guides were telling their guests and they did not get nearly the information and rich stories that we heard. It was extremely hot when we visited - so much so that I worried that I wouldn't make it through the full tour. Thean varied the plan to cater to us - sticking more to the shady areas while he taught us, hurrying through sunny and less interesting spots, and even loaned me his fan. It was exactly what we wanted. He even knew where to tell us to stand to get the best angle on some photos and took some great photos for us. We had our own comfortable van with air conditioning, and the driver always had cool water and towels for us when we climbed in. Highly recommend this operator and Thean!

My wife and I visited Siem Reap for four days and it was one of our best vacations ever! The history of the place, the natural beauty and resources, the lovely food and above all the genuine simplicity and goodness of the people. We were fortunate to also have a great guide in Pin Vannek and an experienced driver in Lee. They were friendly, professional and most helpful with their tips and ofcourse sharing the rich and sometimes unfortunate historical challenges! We promised them that we will be their Ambassadors and also return with our larger family!

I travel quite often and have visited many ancient complexes, including the Egyptian pyramids and Mayan temples in Central America. When my family and I tour these locations we like to book tour guides to elevate the experience and to understand local culture.
Pin Vannak was our guide on this particular trip, taking us through the ancient ruins, temples, and mountains of Siem Reap. He was an excellent and informative guide, ready to answer any questions we had. He accommodated all of our requests and adapted the itinerary according to our needs and what we wanted to see (for example—and I would recommend this—we decided to explore Angkor Wat immediately after seeing the sunrise there as it was much cooler and less crowded, instead of seeing it on the previous day in the afternoon which was in the original plan). Pin was great at pointing out the differences between sites and highlighting their best qualities. For example, Banteay Srei is a beautifully preserved temple using a different type of material from the Angkor Wat complex, and was actually built by the King’s advisor (hence its smaller, humbler size). He also told us about the myth of the monkey and demon war (this war is depicted across the exterior walls of Angkor Wat). We loved hearing all these stories.
My husband and I are both in the art industry so we were interested in repatriation policies and foundational knowledge of local crafts and culture, which we discussed at length with Pin. He also suggested the best places to take photos and to study the ancient engravings and relief markings in the various temples. I am sure he can adapt to any family’s/visitor’s needs and we were very impressed by his depth of knowledge, curiosity and generosity (we learned he also teaches English to underprivileged children and knows a bit of Russian!).
