Highlights
- Phnom Chisor - Prasat Phnom Chisor (Phnom Chisor Temple), the Angkorean Temple built in the 11th century of laterite and bricks with carved sandstone lintels by the Khmer Empire king Suryavarman I with the original name Sri Suryaparvata (mean The Mountain of Sun). This Temple built on Chisor Mountain, a 133 m high and dedicated to the Hindu divinities Shiva and Vishnu. On the east edge of the mountain, at the back of the temple, there is a prime spot for view and pictures where you can see a vast plain of surrounding rice fields and countryside. From there, looking down to the east can see an avenue that forms a straight line connecting three main features including two outer gates (temples) of cruciform ground plan and a baray.

Frog surprise - Great day out exploring. Our ever helpful guide Mr Kim Phanina & safe driver Bora were very polite and attentive. They treated us to some intersting snacks in the way to the temples. Never knew frogs could be so tasty. Loads of information about the country, history, current affairs, traditions all things Cambodian. Thoroughly recommend this for a interesting day trip.

Great Day Trip - I had a wonderful time exploring the temples in Phnom Penh. Our guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, and he showed us some of the most beautiful and historic sites in the city. Each temple had its own unique charm and architecture, and I learned a lot about the culture and history of Cambodia. The tour was well organised and comfortable, and we had enough time to enjoy each place without feeling rushed. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to see the best of Phnom Penh's temples.

Nice trip - This trip was pretty good. The scenery on Chisor Mountain was nice. The tour guide spoke good English and introduced me to the daily life of Cambodians and a lot of things about Hinduism.

Phnom Chisor & Tonle Bati Trip - Today's trip was very good. On our wat to Phnom Chisor, our guide Mr Tokk helped us understand the history and culture of this wonderful land. Phnom Chisor was a good experience seeing all the Pagodas and the temple ruins we learnt so much more of the Cambodians, about Buddhism sbout the life of peopke here. He is a very good guide, valuable to your company. Our driver Mr Long, was very polite and effecient. Both Mr Tokk and Mr Long were punctual and we appreciate their time with us.

Potentially a good tour spoilt by maybe different priorities? - We went to where the tour stated and the guide was friendly...no problem there but I came to see ancient temples not a modern monstrosity to start and then an attempt to go for a coffee. I dont mind spending money but my time is valuable.....! He did honour a visit to two temples i had on my itinerary so bravo for tjat.
