Review of the $24 Banteay Srei and Grand Circuit tour from Siem Reap, with temple details, costs, guide tips, transport, and practical advice.

“Temples were all really beautiful but unfortunately the overall experience was not that good due to an insisting guide Pal that insisted on getting 5-star reviews multiple times during the tour. He even wanted me to do the review in front of him before the end of the tour. And he sent a reminder via WhatsApp two days after the tour.”

“Enriching, culturally and literally. The tour was perfect for us 12 people coming from USA, UK, Singapore and Philippines. Chayy - our tour guide is masterful and a history junkie. No dull moment during the entire tour. Not only we were able to see Angkor Wat, we also experience the killing fields.”
