Fantastic orientation to Siem Reap - Amazing tour by guide Sai - very fun, engaging and informative. Saw sights within Siem Reap city as we had already spent several days exploring the temples. In addition to being good value, we felt we were supporting a social enterprise as Sai spends time as an unpaid teacher in the evenings in his local community.

Introduction to Siem Reap - Sai our guide gave us a great introduction to key parts of Siem Reap city. He was very informative, even explaining how to cross the road! It was also good to hear about his experiences growing up. I would recommend this walk as a good break from the temples. Bonus being its not too long in the heat.

Well worth the time and $. - Guide was excellent, and very fun communicator. The pace was good, and the places we visited were some of the best ones. I did at the start of my trip, and then was able to revisit on later days feeling a bit more confident of where i went.

una suerte el poder verlo - Es un sitio idilico y una maravilla del mundo. Yo he tenido la suerte de estar dos veces pero si fuera la tercera no me pareceria mal. El amanecer viendo los tempolos en Ankor no lo olvidaremos nunca y le doy gracias a Dios por esta suerte. Recomiendo el viaje combinado con Vietnan y laos porque yaque vamos tan lejos por un poquito mas merece la pena. Hemos tenido la suerte de dar con una agencia que nos preparo y personalizo nuestro viaje y la verddad ha salido mejor que mejor. gracias a Greta y Juan de rutas vietnan. It is an idyllic place and a wonder of the world. I have been lucky enough to be there twice but if it were the third time I wouldn't think it was bad. We will never forget the sunrise seeing the temples in Ankor and I thank God for this luck. I recommend the combined trip with Vietnam and Laos because since we go so far for a little more, it is worth it. We have been lucky enough to find an agency that prepared and personalized our trip and the truth is that it has turned out even better. thanks to Greta and Juan from Vietnam routes. È un luogo idilliaco e una meraviglia del mondo. Ho avuto la fortuna di esserci due volte ma se fosse la terza volta non penserei che sia andata male. Non dimenticheremo mai l'alba vedendo i templi di Ankor e ringrazio Dio per questa fortuna. Consiglio il viaggio combinato con Vietnam e Laos perché visto che si arriva così lontano costa qualcosa in più, ne vale la pena. Abbiamo avuto la fortuna di trovare un'agenzia che ha preparato e personalizzato il nostro viaggio e la verità è che è andata ancora meglio. grazie a Greta e Juan delle rotte del Vietnam.

The best start to our trip! - We had Sai as our tour guide, he was absolutely fantastic! Was informative and genuine in his guiding. He kept checking in with everybody in the group to make sure everybody could understand and was doing OK. It was our first day in Siem Reap and we were tired and a bit nervous, but Sai was so welcoming and friendly! Would 100% recommend this tour as a great way to be introduced to Siem Reap.

Good for Orientation - Our tour guide was very good. She was chatty and friendly, great English and told us about the sites, the history, political climate, Buddhist religion and the time went fast. It was our first full day in Siem Reap so this was a really great way to orient ourselves to the key parts of the town. We could ask her questions about general things which was really helpful. Would recommend this tour for orientation.

Interesting informal walk - The guide was interesting and informative. He told us not just about the places we visited but also a little about everyday life in Cambodia. The only problem was that he walked far too quickly for most of the people in the group, especially over the rough terrain which passes for pavements in Cambodia. One member of the group injured his ankle but the guide was too far ahead to deal with the situation.
