Great trip, with lots to see and a perfect tour guide! - A view of some of the temples and sights a bit more out of the centre of Siem Reap. The trip was very well planned and the guide Peng was extremely knowledgable, not just about the temples and waterfalls themselves, but gave us a lot of information about Cambodia in general and how the locals lived - he also had great English. The driver was great and made sure we kept topped up with water all day.
The trip was really well planned and we got to see plenty all within one day - we really appreciated that the bits we saw weren’t as busy as some of the main temples.
Perfect trip if you only have limited time and want to see as much as possible.

Definitely recommend! - We did 2 x full day private tours (also did Phnom Kulen) with Pheng. He’s very knowledgeable, with a sense of humour and a great laugh. He is very good at avoiding the crowds and knows the best photo spots (and he’s not a bad photographer either!)
