Another awesome day with Mr. Sam - When we learned that our tour guide again is Mr. Sam, best tour guide in Siem Reap, we were very happy. Mr. Sam is so good in what he does. Kulen Mountain & Falls is so awesome. Lunch that was served by the tour company was very delicious especially the chicken. We also went to Kampong Phluk, a Floating Village. The tour was very organized and well planned. I highly recommend this tour especially with Mr. Sam as a guide.

Nature, History, and Sam - The Perfect Trio! - Visiting the different sites of Kulen Mountain and Beng Mealea was truly worth it. The stunning views, rich history, and mystical atmosphere made the long day unforgettable. Lunch by the Kulen Waterfall was both scenic and delicious - a traditional meal that hit the spot. The boat ride on Tonle Sap Lake offered a refreshing break from the heat and all the stair climbing. Sam, our tour guide, was friendly, engaging, and always kept the mood light and fun. Huge plus for the agency’s thoughtful touches: plenty of bottled water, cold towels, and fresh fruits kept us cool and energised throughout.

Fabulous tour - We have thoroughly enjoyed every part of this tour and will cherish the memories we made. Our guide Mr Jan and our driver ( apologies I cannot remember his name) were really friendly, helpful and informative and made the group feel as if we were one family.
I would not change one thing :)

Good all day tour of Cambodia outside of Siem Reap - Good trip outside of Siem Reap Cambodia. You can really relax at the waterfall and swim if you want. However, the water is almost cold which will definitely wake you up. Had a good picnic lunch as part of the tour. Also riding a boat on the lake showed you how the people live. Our tour guide Mr.Sareik was very knowledgeable, friendly and did a great job keeping us entertained.
