Fantastic!

Chansip is an extremely knowledgeable and friendly guide. He made our trip to Siem Reap so much better. Covered all that I asked, safe van and driver, cold water and towels provided to battle the Cambodian humidity. Very highly recommend. So pleased with our experience, thank you Chan! The Canadian and Americans!

Angkor Temples Tour

We had a very memorable day with Chansip. Our group had many different ages; from 5 to 57. Chansip ensured we all learned about the Cambodian history and enjoyed ourselves while we did it. He structured the day to make the most of our time and keep us out of the midday heat. The van was always positioned thoughtfully after we emerged from temple ruins to minimise our circling back and we all loved the cool towels and water to hydrate and cool down. Chansip is very knowledgeable and answered all of our queries thoroughly. We had a great day and so thankful we booked with Chansip for our time visiting the Angkor temples

Chansip B.

Dear Emily and lovely family, I am so excited to hear you and lovely family enjoyed my service. It was my great pleasure to be your tour guide during your trip in Siem Reap. I wish you and your family all the best. Best regards, Chansip

Fantastic online tour at Angkor Wat

Since we were planning to visit Cambodia before this pandemic, we were so happy to find an online tour at Angkor Wat on Triplelights. Our tour guide, Chansip is very kind, pleasant, patient, and knowledgeable. He explained various aspects about Angkor Wat and showed us beautiful sceneries there including many detailed carvings. It was just like a real tour. I really recommend exploring Angkor Wat with Chansip.

Chansip B.

Hi Tomoko. You're very kind and it was enjoyable for me too, to be able to show you parts of the beautiful place of Angkor Wat temple. It was kind of great luck for me to have showed you all history of Cambodia. Please let me know should you have any question. Hope to you see again in the future. Best regards, Chansip
