Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to my website!

Angkor Guide Sam – Private Tours are really the private tour services only that offer a group of specialized, highly trained and long-time experienced tourist guides with the license issued and recognized by Ministry Of Tourism and A/C vehicle transportation services in the Angkor archaeological and surrounding sites. This website is operated by Sam Sophea who strongly supports the employment of local tour guide team. We do not rely on oversea travel agencies to make a living; we prefer to keep our business local and of the people.

If you wish to immerse yourself in a thorough and well-informed explanation of the history, art, cultures and architecture of ancient temples or other tourism sites so make sure you get a licensed tourist guide (only certified tourist guides are allowed to accompany tourists into all the temples) and please kindly let book one of our team to guide you for exploring all sites in Siem Reap_Angkor.

My name is Sam Sophea, a tour organizer / team-leader of longtime-experienced, professional and highly trained English-Speaking Tour Guides, born on 6th July 1975 during the Khmer Rouge regime (1975 to 1979). When Cambodia was taken over by the Khmer Rouge, they forced the people, including my family, to march out from cities and towns. Just as my mother reached a village called Phumi Preah Dak, inside the Angkor Archaeological Site, I was born. My father was killed the day that the Khmer Rouge came into power, because he was a soldier in Lon Nol’s regime, which was bankrolled by the USA. After the regime, my mother moved back to the city of Siem Reap. Although my family experienced this terrible tragedy, we were a bit more fortunate than many other families, because my mother, three brothers, and two sisters survived. Many other people lost both parents, siblings, or their entire families.
