I’ve always wanted to go to Siem Reap and see Angkor Wat . So this last September on my vacation to Thailand, I made it a priority to go there. The flight from Thailand to Siem Reap was very convenient. Once I checked in to my hotel, I inquired about seeing Angkor Wat and the concierge recommended getting a guide. So I opted for an English speaking guide. Rata arrived promptly at the designated time and explained the itinerary to me very clearly. Rata is very fluent in English . He was very knowledgeable in the history of Angkor Wat and also in the history of Cambodia. Although the temple sites are very crowded with tourists, Rata’s knowledge of the historical sites allowed me to navigate through the temples with ease to avoid the crowds. The pace of the tour was perfect and I was able to experience the beauty of Angkor Wat fully. So I would highly recommend Rata for any tours in Angkor Wat and Siem Reap.
Excellent tour guide

If you get a chance to have Sok as your guide, just grab him! We spent a whole day with Sok, and couldn't have been more thankful. He is friendly, warm and welcoming. He speaks fluent English, and even got some of Bill's bad jokes. He is punctual and makes sure that you are comfortable. He answers any questions and is an absolute font of knowledge about the temples and other aspects of Cambodian life. He led us using back ways, and even showed us a secret gate after a stroll along one of the moats. He is easy to smile and creates a fun atmosphere. We cannot recommend him more highly. Thank you, Sok
Absolutely perfect tour guide

We had a 2-day-tour in Siem Reap with Dara. I can easily say that Dara is the best guide I ever had. His english is absolutely perfect, incredible knowledge about his country, his people, the Cambodian history and of course about the temples. Dara knows where to go, where to look...he will show you hidden places and will organize the tour far away from other tourists. But above all this, Dara is a great person with a huge heart and a true love for his job and for other people. We felt extremely luck to meet Dara and to share 2 days with him...our trip would have definitely been very different with another guide. Thank you for all you have done for us Dara !
Best Cambodian Guide

My husband and I booked About Cambodia Travel & Tours last year in March 2017, when we did our annual long haul trip to Vietnam and Cambodia. Rata was our guide. I have to say-he is probably one of the best Tour Guides I have ever met. He took us to all the main tourist attractions in Siem Reap, Cambodia in his luxurious AC car-which was quite spacious, and fully equipped with a cool box-which was so very handy, esp in the heat of Angkor Wat. Rata is very knowledgeable, friendly and patient. On our tours at the main temples of Angkor Wat, Ta Phrom, and the Kulen Mountain-he was with us throughout and explained all the history behind the temples. He also joined us for a swim in the Kulen waterfalls-which was a great experience as well. Not only is he a great tour guide-but a fantastic and quite a funny man with his witty jokes! We would definitely recommend him to our friends and families. It was a very memorable holiday indeed, and Rata made it even more special-no wonder we are all Facebook friends! Thanks Rata!
