This is a great way to get a real understanding of the Khmer Rouge regime. The tour was well planned and very detailed. Mr Seth was excellent, he spoke in lots of detail and on a very honest and personal level. We would highly recommend this tour.

Very informative tour, at a good price. The guide's descriptions of the tragic events at the Killing Fields were very sad, but also clear and insightful. I could have maybe spent a little bit longer at each site, but overall the half-day tour felt like it was about the right length.
