Awesome tour with an awesome guide! We all really enjoyed the tour and found it super informative and loved being able to see how the people of Siem Reap live! It was great for the family. The guide answered our questions well and we had just the right amount of time in each place. Highly recommend this tour!

Our trip to the War Museum, Killing Fields and the Floating Village of Chong Kneas was absolutely incredible. Thanks to our amazing guide Bumpheng, we had the best possible day. He gave us so much valuable information whilst being funny, cheerful, kind and considerate. Bumpheng was simply the best guide. Thank you so much for a wonderful day.
Great experience--thank you Kosal!

Very glad we booked this tour! We had a great guide in Kosal, who went above and beyond in explaining different things about Cambodia! We tried lotus seeds from a stand and toured a market (sticky rice included!) on the way to the floating villages. The villages were INCREDIBLE--a lovely boat ride to tour the lake, and a stop off to learn more (and see crocodiles, catfish, and snakes!). Afterwards was the war museum and killing fields--obviously a different tone to the second half of the tour, but incredibly valuable. Kosal was kind and informative, and we definitely left feeling we knew more about Cambodia. A great experience, with a wonderful guide!
Highly recommend!

We had an amazing time on this tour Bunpheng was a great guide, and we learned so much about the history of Cambodia. It was great to do a tour which was different from temples, the floating village was beautiful with very friendly locals and we went on a local boat. We will definitely recommend this to friends
Definitely worthwhile

While the museum is simplistic and you can walk around on your own, I definitely enjoyed it. My highlight was having the honor of talking to a veteran who was there. If you see him and he asks for a donation, do yourself a favor and provide it and listen to his story. An incredible man and survivor that will always stay with me.
Excellent Guide

This was a private tour just by accident, but it was awesome. Our guide took us off the beaten path when there was opportunity to. He was very knowledgeable and passionate about sharing the history of his country and his family's experiences. It was a long day full of so much information but we thoroughly enjoyed it.

I really enjoyed my private day tour! The day tour was thoughtfully planned, I got to see so many things I wanted to see in one trip! Beautiful lotus fields, local market tour, village on stilts, boat tour through the floating village, war museum tour and the killing fields museum. My guide Bunpheng and driver Honda were very kind and attentive. Bunpheng clearly knows his history, I left the tour with a much better understanding of the history of Cambodia! It was a very enjoyable day and I was glad to have a guide with me to provide more context the whole way!I recommend giving this tour a try
Great tour all around....

Great memories from an interesting tour with many new local aspect. We were tasting wild fruits picked from a tree on the Street named Putrea in Khmer language and lotus fruits, visited an alligator farm, learned a lot about Cambodian history and had a fun time. Really recommend this tour to anyone who wants to get to know a little about the country "off the beaten path".
