We were in Siem Reap for only 1.5 days and time was of the essence, hence it was important to find an efficient and reliable tour guide to take us around as quickly and completely as possible, and for a reasonable price. Our tour guide John was the perfect solution. From the moment I contacted him about our trip, he was very efficient in providing a suggested itinerary, so planning was pretty fuss-free. He was also punctual in picking us from the airport on Day One, so we didn’t waste any time and started immediately upon leaving the airport. As our tour progressed efficiently across the sites (Angkor Wat, Angkor Thum, Bayon Temple and surroundings, etc), he even threw in additional temple visits since we still had time before our sunset in Pre Rup Temple. The heat was somewhat unbearable but he was well prepared with ample bottled water and ice, as we zipped across from site to site in our Lexus RX300 (if you’re considering a Tuk Tuk tour - note that it’ll be very hot, much slower, and without a guide - though cheaper… so if you’re in a hurry, get a private tour in an SUV). As we had another half day on Day Two, John took us to Angkor Wat for sunrise before heading to Ta Prohm (Tomb Raider temple) and hidden gems such as Banteay Srei and Boeng Mealea. While the temples on Day One looked quite alike, Day Two really offered something different and was a nice way of rounding off the trip. John also planned it in such a way that our last stop was near the airport so we could be dropped off in time for our flight back home. Overall, it was a memorable trip and John has been a wealth of knowledge and very professional throughout. Thank you and highly recommended…!

John was very flexible as we requested splitting our Angkor Wat temples tour into two days, 5 hours on each day. It really suited our travel plans. He did a wonderful job of staying ahead of the schedule and educating us on each temple history, meaning behind the beautiful carvings and symbolism. He is very knowledgeable, professional and friendly. I highly recommend him for any fellow travellers.

We saw so many beautiful places and temples. John was the perfect guide to show us around. The driver was super nice too and we had a good time. Booking was easy and you can tell John what you want to visit and he brings you in a proper order. Pick up and drop off at the airport was included.

John organised our tour- we spent a day in Phnom Penh, a day transit and 3 days in Siem Reap seeing multiple attractions. We feel we spent enough time in each place and John picked our activities suited to our age and energy levels- high! We had an amazing time! John has superb English, is kind, polite and very accomodating with time and our priorities. John took some beautiful photos for us, and had extensive knowledge about the history of all the places he took us. John welcomed our questions about temples and history and went out of his way to ensure we had a positive experience. We were transported in a clean spacious van with cold aircon (needed) and were offered chilled bottles of water at each stop. My partner suffered from mosquito bites so John went to pharmacy to get her a tiger Balm. John took us to local authentic eateries for food and bought us coconut rice cake treats from local vendors. John is very easy to get along with and we felt comfortable and safe in his company. John cracked a few jokes along the way adding to our experience! We are pleased to have had John involved in our holiday- Overall we highly reccomend John to be anyone’s tour guide for Cambodia.

We took a tour to ankgor wat during a trip to Siem reap and couldn’t have asked for a more entertaining, informational, and immersive experience. Thanks you our guide Chuob, who I swear must know everyone in town, we were able to see all the main temples and learn about the history of not only these temples but of Cambodia in general. I couldn’t recommend this tour more.

I chose this company because of the good reviews. Overall the tour was amazing and I would recommend this tour. Our guide, Choub and driver, Sambo were also amazing! Both of them are friendly and they were taking good care of us during the tour. Sambo drove safely, the car was clean, air-conditioned, and mineral water were provided during the tour. Choub is knowledgeable, passionate and fun! He told the story well and in detail. He also guided us to the very good photo spot where there were less people so we could take very good views of the temples. Will book the tour from this company again in next visit to Siem Reap.

My spouse and I went had 4 days of private tour with our guide John Suchit. It was a wonderful experience. Suchit is not only very knowledgeable guide but also a very helpful and pleasant person. Thanks to his guidance, our 4 day trip covering 12 different temples in and around Siem Reap was such a super and enriching experience. We recommend that everyone visiting the temples at Siem Reap avail his services as he will explain in detail about each temple and make it a very interesting experience for all.

We took a couple tours with John. First one at some remote temples and the floating village of Kampong Phluk. He even took us to the english school with young kids, chatting with them. Second one the sunrise tour to Angkor Wat (a must!), visiting all the main temples as Ta Prohm, Bayon, etc. John took us to the places at the right time (less crowded) and making the most of our limited time. A pleasure to learn about Cambodia and its history from John, very interesting and friendly talk. Much recommended!

During Oct 2019, we had a 2 days visit in Siem Reap, with the support and guidance of "Siem Reap with a private tour". John arranged everything for us, starting with airport pickup upon arrival and visiting all places which we wanted to see. We bought a 2 days entrance pass to the temples early morning and we used the pass in all places. John and his staff did a great job, provided a good and very comfortable VAN that had enough space for the 4 of us with our luggage, the driver was on time whenever needed and never was late, they assign us a great guide that spoke fluent English, presented lot of knowledge about everything, and was very fun to speak with, a real professional guide. We prepared the trip itinerary according to John recommendations, including very early wake up to visit the monks (05:00AM), and all of that was really great. we recommend John and his agency as an excellent local office and person that can provide all required services without missing anything in a very professional and helpful way. Enjoy your trip to there as Angkor Wat complex is really an amazing visit, each of the temples, is unique and special.

Me and family had a memorable trip to Siem Reap,Cambodia thanks to our local tour operator John Socheat who went out of way to ensure our comfort throughout our stay. He and his team comprising Thou Thou and Sarath are not only friendly but indeed managed to set up high bench marks in customer service due to their highly friendly jolly nature, pleasant personalities and updated knowledge base about the places we visited, including the world heritage site Angkor Wat amongst others. From the very moment that we landed at the airport till the departure, utmost care was taken by John, Thou Thou and Sarath to ensure that we derive maximum benefit of our stay by visiting all key landmarks at the Siem Reap. I would strongly recommend John Socheat to anyone visiting Siem Reap, Cambodia and seeking maximum value out of their stay there.

Had moved around with John, the man behind the Tours, on our family visit to Siem Reap.It was simply superb. He was the first guy I got connected and he is simply superb. He speaks good English and he knows the place around. By the way, he is a family man with two kids and wife. He is responsible and quite understanding. Undoubtedly, pretty cool experience and one of the most accommodating personality. If you are looking for a tour operator who not only takes you around but also understands you and accommodates and blends himself as part of the tour, you can bank on John.He is completely there in our photos and videos of our journey. In fact, I am quite happy for taking decision to go around with John. We had covered all the places in our short duration and most important he drives responsibly and explains the place around and travel along with us. He is good and we liked his vehicle as well (with my daughter having motion sickness we were particular). Simply Super, John!!! Okun, John!

We are introduce to get John/Sa Raht by one of our relative from Malaysia because of their excellent service. As expected, he gave an awesome 2 days tour guide service and speak very clear English! We get to know a lot about Cambodia life style and the culture from him. Will want to get him again if we are back to Cambodia :)

I had a 3 day trip in Siem Reap and I found them on tripadvisor. I just can say that everything was excellent. They picked us from the hotel the first day and make us a 2 day tour of the temples. We were able to change the plan and see the sunrise one day. The guide, Sin, was great! He knew a lot of history and made us amazing pictures in every corner in the temples. I just can recommend this tours

I am extremely happy that me and my family decided to opt for a 3-day private tour with John, Thou and Sa Rath. The entire trip was exceptional, educational and incredibly fulfilling- all credit to them. John picked us up from the airport on time; he is very welcoming and friendly, and we got along with him right away! Our tour guide, Thou, is very knowledgeable and speaks good English. He made sure we covered all key sites with ample time to explore each one of them. He exained to us the details about the history, architecture of every place we visited, and patiently answered all our questions very well. Sa Rath, who was our driver, was also very cordial and welcoming. All were very punctual, and went out of their way to ensure our comfort. Highly recommend opting for this tour when in Siem Reap!
