The place is overcrowded with tourist groups. Not much signage around, so if you're without a guide then there's not much sense you're going to make of the place as Lonely Planet helps only so much.

Very interesting place / places to see. I recommend though to buy a local guide to navigate you around. The only downside of the Wat is that there are streetsellers bugging you all the time when you are travelling from one wat to another. More

I got a tuk tuk and a private guide to take us around these 3 days and I have to say this was one of the most memorable experiences of our trip. You... More

When being a travel enthusiast, like myself, you can not avoid the desire of visiting Angkor Wat. The best time to visit - sunrise, if you are lucky, and see a good one, you will remember it forever.
