Well here comes the question how to find a well trained and experienced guide for such a tour especially when you travel through the unknown regions of Angkor Wat or Siem Reap in Cambodia? In the coming paragraphs lets discuss some important aspects pertaining to selecting an experienced and trained guide for such an expedition.

I have summarized a few factors which may help you to find a well trained and experienced person as your Siem Reap Tour Guide or as an Angkor Wat tour guide.

Understanding a guide:This is one of the primary aspects prior to selection of a guide for your tour to Siem Reap or its archeological wonder Angkor Wat. A guide is a person, preferably from the local citizens, who is well aware of the tits and bits of the place with some knowledge about ancient history and archeology. For foreign tourists a guide should be well versed with the foreign languages and should be able to speak reasonable with foreign voice. The government of Cambodia recognizes and trains local youths and individuals as foreign guides and offers them the minimum basic courtesy training to be friendly with a foreign visitor. So understanding the capability of a person you select as your friend and pathfinder can be possible if you find a certified person.

Check for competency of a Guide:Once you land up in Cambodia or Siem Reap region or Angkor Wat, you should first try to speak with your guide to test his competencies. This can be done when you have made some research about the Siem Reap locality or the ancient history of Angkor Wat. You can ask a few questions to test the depth of knowledge of the person who will be accompanying you as a guide to your expedition. Although there wont be any dearth of Angkor Wat tour guides, still by judging their knowledge and understanding about the local culture and tradition you can make sure to choose the right person as your torchbearer.

Verify the certification and self claimed competency:When you roam around Siem Reap you can find many persons with badges claiming themselves to be certified by authorities as a trained Siem Reap tour guide. You can check for the authenticity of the certification from the local government tourism information counter. By verifying the identity of a guide you can make sure that you are being guided by a competent person having enough knowledge of the local Khmer culture and ancient history of this nation.

Finding a qualified and knowledgeable guide is much easier now-a-days with many travel operators operating online. You can search for a reputed travel and tours operator for your travel to Cambodia and can ask for their recommended guides to accompany you throughout your travel in Siem Reap and Angkor Wat. All you need is to have a research online prior to making your travel plan ready for this exotic Cambodia.
