Great tour with good food. - Great experience with our guide Sotin. He was very informative about Cambodian history and its religious background. I love learning while traveling. The local food is delicious. Watching the locals with their family enjoying the waterfall was sweet. The water was nice and cool, perfect on a warm day of hiking.

Awesome tour at Kulen Mountain - What an awesome tour altogether, many thanks to our wonderful tour guide, Sotin! He took care of us every step of the way and shared his knowledge about the culture. He even took awesome photos of us at the cliffside. From start to finish I was really blown away, the waterfall at the end was a great finish! Also, water was always available and lunch was delicious! Thank you so much!

Excellent day out in the mountains - Well organised and interesting day out with beautiful sceneries from a cliff top, religious and cultural visits to the river of 1000 Linggas and the temple of the reclining Buddha. Ended the day at the gorgeous Kulen waterfall with a very nice picnic lunch.
Booked a group tour but apparently others who were supposed to be on the tour with me cancelled last minute. However, in testament to their professionalism, they did not cancel the tour on me last minute and proceeded with the tour despite me being the only traveler.
Special mention to my guide Sareik, he was punctual, polite, very knowledgeable and explained things in depth (something I noticed not many guides do). To top it all off, he’s got amazing photography skills.
Will definitely not hesitate to book another tour with them and hopefully Sareik can be my guide again.

Excellent - It was very nice, the tour guide was excellent and spoke good English. Waterfall is worth it even in dry season. Also learned a lot about Cambodian/Buddhist culture.

Worthwhile if you are in Siem Reap - Very enjoyable trip to the local communities and sights of Kulen Mountain. The guide, Vuthy, was knowledgeable about the area and provided us with interesting insight. The waterfall you are taken to on the mountain was a personal highlight

Fun and relaxing - This was such a fun and light tour! Mr. Mony was quite knowledgeable , gave us cold towels smelling of lemon grass and knew the best spots for pictures! The picnic was so much fun and Mr. Mony didn’t want us to think about time so we would have fun and just relax! Definitely recommend for anyone!

Kulen Mountain Tour - value for money - This was a great day out and we managed to see a lot. Makara was a very good tour guide and he was light hearted and interesting too. The tour gives a brief view of Cambodia countryside as well as some interesting monuments including the reclining Buddha. This was good value as it included entry tickets as well as a delicious picnic. Remember to take swimming costume as there is a waterfall where you can take a dip. I gave this 4 stars as the air con in our bus did not work very well and not at all on the back seats.
