About Tour Guide Sarak N.
Hello everyone! My name is Sarak. I am an English speaking tour guide in Siem Reap, Angkor Wat, Cambodia. I've been doing my job for 15 years, taking people visit to Angkor Wat and other interesting places around Cambodia. I do explain about the local history, culture, religion. People say that I have good eyes for photo taking. Please contact me for your holiday in Cambodia.
Thank you very much.
Here are the reviews from my past guests:
Guest1:
Sarak was recommended to us by someone who had travelled to Siem Reap pre-pandemic and we're so grateful for the recommendation. He's very patient and knowledgeable and we learnt such a great deal from him about the country's rich history (most of our own had been confined to the late twentieth- and twenty-first century). We had experienced some trouble with purchasing tickets online and Sarak drove us to the ticket office to pick them up and the process was seamless. We did a one-day tour with Sarak, which included the Angkor Wat, Ta Prohm, Bayon, and more. Sarak speaks excellent English and is really knowledgeable about the cultural and religious history of the various places we visited. The trip was comfortable and pleasant, and it was great not to have to worry about transport. Definitely recommending him to others who intend to visit Siem Reap. Date of experience: November 2022
Guest2:
I spent 2 wonderful days with Sarak. He showed me in a private tour all the importante temples around Siem Reap. 1st day: Angkor Wat, Bayon Temple, Chau Say Tevoda, Ta Nei, Ta Prohm and on 2nd day: Preah Khan, Neak Poan, East Mebon, Banteay Samre and Banteay Srei.
He knows all the historical details and history and all legends and stories with Hinduism & Buddhism gods and religion. He is a really good storyteller and it isn't boring to hear all the details. He linked the stories with the different temples and the appropriate rock carvings.
The driver drove us safely from temple to temple. Back in the vehicle he was waiting for us with water and refreshing towels.
We had Lunch in local Restaurants. The food was delicious!
I am happy and satisfied that I could do the two tours with Sarak. I am very happy to recommend him!
Date of experience: February 2023

Reviews
“Good quality guide ”
Our guide was Mr Veurn. He was very knowledgeable and gave us great information about all the sites. Importantly for us, he was also very accommodating in tailoring itineraries to our needs(we wanted early starts and early finish due to the heat) and to our interests.

[Private tour] 1-Day Angkor Wat, world heritage
“Fabulous day learning about the history of the Temples”
If you are looking to book a tour for Angkor Wat please don’t hesitate. Sarak is extremely knowledgeable about the history of all temples and the history of Indo-China and the Khmer. He speaks perfect English and the air conditioned car with chilled towels are a delight…didn’t think we needed them…boy were they a nice bonus…it gets hot out there. Most importantly he is extremely flexible and listens to you and will make changes accordingly. There are many options available…however the knowledge, stories and making the temples come alive were indispensable….worth every penny and a lot more. Please do yourself a favor and book , you can’t do any better!
