I got some great pictures! - Great experience! Michael gave me an expert tour of the Ounalom Pagoda, a local market and some very picturesque parts of Phnom Penh. The ferry boat ride is fascinating especially since it crosses where the Tonle Sap River and Mekong River meet. In Areyksat Village I could photograph different types of houses, the charming chapel and the local communities' way of life. Michael has been living in Cambodia for a long time and he provided me with very useful tips for my stay. I Highly recommend this tour.

Excellent photography tour - This tour almost felt like a photography workshop. I am trying to learn how to use my camera in other than automatic mode and Michael gave me lots of tips on how to improve on this skill. He took us off the beaten path and we were able to experience the other side of Phnom Pehn we would otherwise not have gone our own! Highly recommended!!!

Much wiser now - We could have sat at a bar or café and talked with Michael all day about photography, Cambodia and connected life experiences. A quintessential photo journalist he gave us just a couple of tips over coffee that have changed photography completely for us as beginners. We took a tour of the "other side" of Pnomh Penh, the places that are not advertised in tourist brochures, a local market and a local neighbourhood across the river. The local insights and stories made each photo a memory to be relived after our travels are complete. Michael was great with our little girl and paced the day to our needs. Highly recommended, this type of tour is now on our must do list in every new city we visit. One essential piece of advice for anyone booking - If you have a question ASK IT! we found Michael very willing to share his knowledge and the explanation behind it.

Well worthy tour - Michael is friendly and very efficient. Took me to places I would never know they existed, even so, would not dare to visit alone. Also provide you with some information helping you to understand a local way of life. Highly recommend this tour.

Good for Beginners - Maybe this would have been better for beginners or for tourist who are uncomfortable in foreign countries. I thought it was very basic. I find that it is nice to have a local guide to make the most of limited time, but Michael was very expensive by Cambodian standards. He was a helpful city guide, but I photography tips were geared for beginners.

Really disappointing - $75 for for 3.5hrs (8am to 11.35am) - 1hr of which was passed in 2 coffee shops, one of which involved drinking coffee with no conversation, although we did go to the two sites we agreed upon by email. Unfortunately, Michael showed no enthusiasm and even less interest during the time we were together. We did have a useful conversation about the camera settings (in the first coffee shop) but he made no effort to look at anything I shot or make any suggestions about composition or what to consider when framing a photo even though I did say at the beginning that it would be good to discuss things like this as we moved around. I felt more of a burden / inconvenience than a client. He walked ahead of me most of the time and never with me - while I was looking for interesting opportunities he seemed in a rush. There were a few other things that I felt uncomfortable with but I don't have time to mention here. I got much more interesting and engaging photos walking around on my own after our session. . Overall a very expensive (even by international standards) and disappointing couple of hours.
