I would recommend. - My 13 year old daughter and I went to receive a Monk Blessing and the experience was very good. Educational and enjoyable. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to learn about Buddhism and Cambodian culture.

Well organised and deep spiritual experience - The organisors were very supportive and flexible, when I arrived late due to another tour, they offered me to reschedule this experience with no problem. The ceremony itself was a unique experience, and definetely worth for those who are interested in buddhism. The organisers provided towels and appropriate clothing for the ceremony. It was one of my most remarkable experiences in Cambodia.

Nice finish - Towards the end of the holiday, receiving the blessing of a monk is a perfect way to end a holiday. I am grateful to have had this experience. I was picked up by Mr. Chhun Bunleng. He explained to me what I had to do when I was with the monk. Then I had to change into a changing room. Mr. Chhun Bunleng had brought a robe for me so that I didn't have to return to the hotel with wet clothes. After the ceremony, he explained to me that part of the money (ticket that I paid) would be given to the monks. The monks in turn buy materials and give them to the villagers so that they can build streets, schools, etc. It's nice to know that you have not only received the blessing of a monk, but that you have also done something good at the same time. Thank you very much, dear Chhun Bunleg, I felt very comfortable with you.
