Day Trip to Angkor Wat
This is a fantastic operation. We were in Bangkok and only had one day to visit Cambodia. No problem, the driver was at our hotel at 3 in the morning to pick us up. We had plenty of room to sleep since it's a private van. What would have been a chaotic and confusing border crossing at Poipet went flawlessly thanks to their help on both the Thailand and Cambodia sides. As for Angkor Wat, Sophoan Rath is an amazing guide. He is so knowledgeable, and knows the best places to visit to make the most of your day. He also takes wonderful photographs so you have great memories of your trip. It was a pleasure to spend the day with him. His driver is also great, and always had lots of bottled water ready for us after each stop. Thanks for an unforgettable trip!

Sophoan Was Incredible!
We had a group of 40 people and needed to get from Siem Reap, Cambodia to Chiang Mai, Thailand and Sophoan was absolutely fantastic. After just a few emails he had everything planned for us and within our budget as well. When the day came for us to leave, he personally came with the bus and helped load all of our luggage. When we crossed the border, he personally led us through what would have been a much more complicated task if he wasn't there.

Perfect experience!
My friend and I visited Siem Reap/Angkor Wat for 3 days in October, and an incredible time thanks to our guide, Sophoan. I had been emailing with Sophoan for a couple of months regarding the tour, and he was responsive to all my emails and very helpful with answering detailed questions and giving us all the information we would need ahead of time. Sophoan speaks perfect English and is extremely knowledgeable about Angkor Wat, as well as all of Cambodian history. He was able to answer all of our questions, and gave us a wealth of information, He also knew exactly which temples to take us to, and I think without his guidance, we would have been overwhelmed and not know where to go. He was completely flexible with our schedule and accommodated us in every way. It was a true pleasure to spend this time with him, and I was left with a strong desire to return to Cambodia and learn more about its history. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour company, and Sophoan personally, to anyone interested in visiting the area. We have no complaints.

Excellent Service
On 24th July 2016 we (a team of Eight persons) went to Angkor vat in Cambodia . For this purpose I have contacted Mr. Sophoan Rath of Angkor Wat Services, Cambodia (whom I came to know through internet) by email from India two weeks earlier and asked many clarifications .He has promptly clarified all my doubts which made a positive impact about his professionalism . So I have engaged him for our visit to Angkor vat and it was an excellent experience . Right from pick up from our hotel in Bangkok and drop back, we could see a co-ordinated effort from his side .The border crossing at Thailand border through his English speaking Associate and Poipet border in Cambodia were made easy and well co-ordinated . Temple visit in Angkor vat and other historical places in that area were well organized by him and he is very knowledgeable about historical facts about these places and speaks very good English . I also noticed that his charges are very reasonable compared to other such tour operators . Overall , our trip was made an enjoyable and satisfying one because of his professional service.

Must Do - A Perfect Day Trip
My wife and I did the Angkor Wat day tour with Sophoan Rath on June 30, 2016. Overall, it was a great tour and the perfect day trip to Angkor Wat from Bangkok.
First, Sophoan was excellent all-around. Once you contact him to inquire of and/or book the tour, Sophoan provides a lot of detailed information regarding the tour. You'll need to make a $100 deposit via Western Union or MoneyGram (I chose Western Union, which requires a small fee). Once Sophoan receives the funds in Cambodia, he sends you pictures of the receipt and a confirmation of the tour. Closer to the date of the tour, Sophoan confirms your hotel and answers any questions you may have. During the actual tour, he is extremely knowledgeable and goes well out his way to make sure you enjoy your experience (more on this below).
On the day of our tour, we were picked up by a driver at 3am (yes, very early) from our hotel in Bangkok. The driver was waiting for us, so obviously on time. The drive to the Thailand-Cambodia (Poipet) border was approx. 3.5 hours, and the trip was in a large van (both my wife and I were able to lay down in our separate rows to get some zzz's). Upon arrival at the Poipet border, we were met and welcomed by an English speaking guide (not Sophoan). After meeting the guide, you'll take a 5-10 minute walk to the actual border. IMPORTANT: Note that you will have to leave the guide with your passport for 10-15min (we were terrified and caused delays trying to sort this out, but it all turned out fine and the guide returned with our passports and visas). If you don’t have a passport-sized photo for the visa, you just pay a small fee. After crossing the border, it's another 2 hour drive in a comfortable car with a new driver. This car and driver accompanied us the rest of the day and made the tour very convenient. Upon arrival in Siem Reap, we picked up (and met) Sophoan and drove for a few minutes to Angkor Wat.
The next several hours were spent touring Angkor Wat, the Great City of Angkor Thom, the South Gate, the Bayon Temple (trees one), the Terrace of the Elephants, the Terrace of the Leper King, the Taprohm Ruins (Tomb Raider temple with trees), and Small Circuit. Sophoan was outstanding - he knew a ton, answered all our questions, and took a ton of pictures for us. When it started to rain, Sophoan had umbrellas for us, and he always seemed to be focusing on what we wanted. The car/driver mentioned earlier was always waiting for us once we finished touring a specific location, which made the tour very convenient.
We ate a late lunch before the drive back to Bangkok, so bring some USD (ours was approximately $20). Just another example to show how Sophoan goes well out of his way to make sure you enjoy the tour, he road back with us to the border since we were terrified to leave our passports at the border earlier in the morning (see above). He was truly the perfect guide.
Angkor Wat was incredible, and if you're looking for a guide or the perfect day trip, this is the one. Thanks Sophoan!

Exceptional! !!!
This is my first time doing a review on Trip Adviser, and would not normally do a review. We feel we must. The Amazing service that Mr. Rath and the rest of the team at Angkor Wat Services provided was outstanding! We booked a tour for June 5th, and we're picked up at our hotel in Bangkok, and driven to the Cambodian border, handed off to driver on Cambodian side. Our driver Karn was fantastic! Never once did our frequent requests to stop disturb. The knowledge Sophoan shared with us was truly stellar! He informed and educated us, while enthusiastically making it fun. We're pretty well traveled, and have used guides before, but never have we had the pleasure of such service! Our driver in Cambodia was Disith Seng. He was beyond courteous! Always opening the doors for us, and ready with an ice cold water!
We will return to Siem Reap, and bring friends. And we will most definitely use Angkor Wat Services, and the amazing Mr. Rath again! Dan & Duane

Exceptional guide
Sophoan Rath organized our one day trip from Bangkok to Angkor Wat. It was excellent in every way. Sophoan is a pleasant person who will adjust to your style and speed of touring the ruins. He is very knowledgeable, he will provide you with all the information you need. Crossing from Thailand to Cambodia is somewhat unusual (you will have to give up your passport for a while), but it works great. I enthusiastically recommend Sophoan as your guide. You will not be disappointed.
