Great experience
We had a two day private tour with tour guide Bunhak and a driver Nol in a car with thankfully AC. First day was a sunrise Angkor wat experience and small circuit and second day was grand circuit. Went as a couple with my wife. They coordinated with our hotels to set our mind and peace for collection on first day. Bunhak was very knowledgeable and passionate on history including the recent latest LIDAR development. Was happy to answer all of our many questions (we asked a lot!) and was very patient in educating us. He has a talent for photography great for the pictures / socials. He recommended adding on a site not on our itinerary that he felt was of interest to us and was able to help us add this on mid-tour. Which we enjoyed very much. Would recommend very much the company (who communicated via watsapp to great effectiveness) and especially our tour guide Bunhak. Thank you for an amazing experience!

Bunhak, the guide par excellence!
We went on the tour with Bunhak as our guide. His knowledge of the local customs and stories we found to be unparalleled, his attention to detail superb. He engaged us in a wonderous 8 day tour of the the mysteries of Khmer Kingdom. Would recommend him to all. Excellent in every way!!

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Angkor Wat by Private guide tours: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Siem Reap.
How much does Angkor Wat by Private guide tours cost?
+
Prices start at $100 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Siem Reap usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Angkor Wat by Private guide tours take?
+
Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Siem Reap is not rushed.
Is Angkor Wat by Private guide tours worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 14 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Siem Reap, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Angkor Wat by Private guide tours?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Angkor Wat by Private guide tours suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Angkor Wat by Private guide tours?
+
Around 5 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Siem Reap can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Siem Reap and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Angkor Wat by Private guide tours start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Siem Reap within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Siem Reap?
+
On Outty we rank every Siem Reap experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kampong Phluk Floating Village Tour by Boat, Angkor Wat Sunrise or Sunset Tour with Guide from Siem Reap, Angkor Wat Sunrise & 3 Main Temples – Small Group. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Siem Reap?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Siem Reap?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Angkor Wat by Private guide tours?
+
Included: Travel by tuk-tuk (motorised trolley); Mineral Water & Wet towel during tour; Licensed and Experienced English Speaking Tour Guide; and Hotel pickup and drop off. Not included: Temple pass (pay to ticket office); Food and drinks; and Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Angkor Wat by Private guide tours include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 243 listed pickup locations in and around Siem Reap. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Angkor Wat by Private guide tours offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

+
