5.00This was a great experience and I would highly recommend it. Our tour guide San was the best of all the Viator guides I have ever had and I’ve been on a many many Viators. San teaches at the local university teaching history, mythology and Asian religions, so, the best background you could ask for!
Greenera and Nak are always on top.

5.00Reunion with Nak after little trading with Vibol de Greenera. To see Beng Mealea (the jungle book), Bantey Srei (the beautiful pink sandstone of Malraux the rascal, Bantey Samré and Preah Khan. Very few people, dream visit conditions, especially in Beng Mealea which is really worth it despite the distance.
Superb visit of temples with Nak today. He knows and tells with pleasure all the mythology! Perfect.

5.00The day trip to Kulen Mountain was a wonderful experience, made even better by our excellent tour guide, Mr. Nak Chum, and our very careful driver. The scenery on the way up the mountain is beautiful, and the patient Mr. Nak gave us ample time to take photos whenever we wanted. The lower section of the waterfalls also requires 100 steps down and up, but splashing in the water was refreshing with the roar of the falls echoing all around us. I am not young anymore, and Mr. Nak was so considerate in helping me across rough terrain and on the stairs. He also was extremely knowledgable about the region's history and environment, and his sunny disposition and cheerful personality made the day even more enjoyable. We highly recommend this tour and this tour guide to anyone interested in the natura beauty and culture of Kulen Mountain, but be aware of fairly strenuous demands on your physical stamina. We would like to add that since we were the only two guests on this tour, it would have been more energy-efficient for the company to have used a small sedan rather than a large 12-passenger diesal van.
Mesmerising!!

5.00This was our second day tour after doing Angkor Wat on the first day. It was a wonderful tour. Our guide Nak Chum was at his best. And we managed to to complete tours of 5 different temples and the the first day we did the same amount of temples. He took us through the the huge temple complexes and we could the see most of it. All because of Nak he took us through the temples which he is very familiar with and telling us about the story and the architecture of these temples. Thank you Mr. Nak for the lovely experience.
