The best way to sightseeing Angkor Wat

Great tour, the best way to get to know Angkor Wat. Bikes were good quality and the ride was so much fun. Also our guide Bo Bo was very qualified and told us a lot about the temples and Cambodia. He also take great photos for us :)

Response from the operator: Dear srokeu! Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted you enjoyed the cycling tour and had a great time with Bo Bo. We truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back to Angkor again soon! Best regards Thida

Great way to see Angkor Wat!

This was an excellent way to see Angkor Wat, and the jungle as felt we had a bit of a workout! Plus riding a bike gave us a breeze on a hot day! Our guide Bo Bo was very knowledgeable and friendly. He was very professional and ensured that we were both comfortable with the plan of the day and riding. He was enthusiastic and made the day fun. We had breakfast, coconut water and lunch which were all delious. Would definitely recommend this tour and company as all the staff in the shop and the driver who picked us up and dropped us to Angkor Wat were very friendly and made us feel very welcome and at ease. Thank-you for a fabulous day 😊🚵‍♀️

Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re so happy you enjoyed the cycling adventure and had a great time with Bo Bo and our team. Your kind words and recommendation mean a lot to us. We hope to see you again in Cambodia!

Great Ankgor Wat E-bike Tour

A great experience all around. The e-bike was easy to figure out and ride (I don’t even own a regular bike). Mr Bo Bo was an excellent guide providing a lot of background on the temples and answering all of my questions. He also knows the places for the best photographs and will take any photos of you that you want. Even the food was good on the tour. I would recommend the tour to everyone.

Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're delighted you enjoyed your e-bike experience and that Bo Bo knowledge, guidance, and photography made your visit even more memorable. We're also glad you enjoyed the food along the way. Thank you for your kind recommendation—we hope to welcome you back for another adventure in Cambodia!

Easy and high quality

This was great! Apart from the obviously great temples, the organization was flawless. We submitted the booking form and were contacted via mail and WhatsApp only half an hour later (even though it was late - thank you!). They picked us up for the sunrise with perfect mountainbikes and we brought them back to their nice shop (temple pick-up is also possible). Card payment was also possible. Absolute recommendation!

Response from the operator: Dear Sonja D! Thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the temples and that everything went smoothly from booking to sunrise pick-up. Our team always does their best to respond quickly even late at night so your kind words truly mean a lot. So happy you liked the bikes and our shop as well! Thank you for the absolute recommendation, and we hope to welcome you again in Siem Reap. Best regards, Toch

Angkor Wat Sunrise & Ancient City Discovery: questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Siem Reap.

How much does Angkor Wat Sunrise & Ancient City Discovery cost?

+

Prices start at $35 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 Sunrise & Ancient City Discovery take?

+

Plan for about 9 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 Sunrise & Ancient City Discovery worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 83 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 132 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 Sunrise & Ancient City Discovery?

+

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 Sunrise & Ancient City Discovery suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 9-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book Angkor Wat Sunrise & Ancient City Discovery?

+

Around 46 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 9-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Angkor Wat Sunrise & Ancient City Discovery 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 Angkor Wat Sunrise or Sunset Small-Group and Guide tours, Angkor Wat full Day 'Small Group with sunset & Tour Guide, Angkor Wat Sunrise or Sunset Tour with Guide from Siem Reap. 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.
