This was the best way to see Angkor Wat!! Tom was exceptional! We got all the best spots in a timely manner. We got waters, coolTowels and beer throughout the spots. I couldn’t recommend this enough. We travel all over the world and this has been one of our top tours.Posted onVerified Easy Airport Transfer This was a very easy and on time airport transfer! Great way to get to and from the airport! It's also a nice vehicle with space for all your luggage.Posted onVerified Angkor Wat Guided Sunrise Tour Our guide Thom collected us with a driver at our hotel at 4.30am. We arrived at Angkor Watt at about 5.30 after a stop to buy tickets. The sunrise was beautiful with the light over the temple changing all the time. At 6.30 Thom brought us through the temple.After Angkor wat we visited two other temples also. We arrived back at our hotel for about 12.30pm.Thom was very informative and helpful throughout and we could recommend him for any local tours.Posted onVerified Impressive & efficient tour, loved it. Great afternoon with Thom, we explored a lot in the 4+ hrs on our flying visit to Cambodia. Much appreciated his efficient use of time & all the explanations. Highly recommend.Posted onVerified Brilliant trip for all the family Had an amazing cycle tour, Tom was so informative and made the afternoon really engaging and fast paced . The cycle paths en route were beautiful and it was lovely to see so much on our travelsPosted onVerified On time, on track The tour was smooth and well-organized. Our guide was impressively punctual and kept everything running on schedule, which we really appreciated. Good guiding and informative, while the overall logistics were solid. Great if you value timeliness and structure.Posted onVerified Temple Tour We had a great time with Thom. He was knowledgeable and fun to hang with for the afternoon. Helped with great photo ops! Would recommend 100%!!Posted onVerified Thom is a terrific tour guide for Angkor Wat Thom San at Travel to Inspire is a terrific tour guide and I recommend him highly for any of your tour needs or even just transportation needs in Siem Reap. Thom took us to Angkor Wat by the back entrance to avoid the huge crowd at the main entrance. If we had gone through the main entrance, we would never have made it to the reflecting pool before sunrise. Then he took us to the “right” place to watch the sunrise over the temple. Then as we walked in and around Angkor Wat, Thom gave us a comprehensive lecture on the temple as well as Cambodian history and culture. It was highly informative without being a boring lecture. Then we went on to 3 other temples and a brunch break at a local restaurant where we ate the food we brought from our hotel. Thom made everything easy and comfortable. I would recommend him highly and will use him again when I return to Siem Reap.
