Super price. Super guide. - We made a late booking just evening before the morning tour. Were very happy to have an available slot. Website booking was easy and confirmation was clear. Pickup from hotel was fussfree and very punctual. Our guide: Mr Sim Sokoan was very patient and thorough. He explained clearly what the half day trip was and the timings to expect. The trip is really value for money. This was one of the most reasonable rates, and we were so surprised that it was a private tour for only 2 of us! Definitely recommend using Journey2angkor through Viator.

Very nice visit at a local market, floated village and mangrove forest. Very intelligent tour guide. Highly recommend. - The private tour was fantastic. The tour guide speaks fluent english and tells a lot of interesting facts. We could ask him anything about Cambodia. There were no other tourists at the local market. We tasted different types of fruit. In the tuktuk was free cool water. The floated village was very beautifull and it was interesting to walk around the not floated part aswell. Highly recommend.

Escape to the beautifull waters of Siem Reap - We had a great time with our local guide who led us with pride through the beautifull countryside, local market, flooded mangrove forest and the floating villages by Siem Reap. In clear English he informed us on the seasonal changes in the landscape, the importance of tourism for these local people and general Cambodian history and life style. We visited a local market where we tasted delicious fruits and a school where we where greated by the 2nd and 3th grade students. I would really recommend this tour to expand your knowledge on Cambodia and to relax in the magnificent country side.

Interesting view into Cambodian life - The trip was great. Our guide Sim was excellent; very talkative and informative. We visited a busy local market, by the motorboat we passed through the village, mangrove forest, stopping shortly in the floating restaurant on the lake. Additionally we walked through the village to get a picture about local life. I highly recommend this trip1
