Additional Information

Kulen Mountain, a National Park in Cambodia, is situated approximately one hour away from Siem Reap. This ancient city, recently unveiled by Laida ultra-sound scanning technology, encompasses a myriad of ancient temples, waterfalls, and holy places.

Situated to the east of the Kulen National Park is Beng Mealea, a temple accessible by over an hour’s drive from the town of Siem Reap. This masterfully constructed and intricately carved temple was conceived during the early 12th century under the reign of King Suryavarman II, concurrently with Angkor Wat. Maintaining its untouched archaeological state, Beng Mealea, adorned with parasite trees and ruins, bestows a mesmerizing impact on its visitors.

The educational and touristic programs are directed by Fin, an experienced guide with over two decades of service and proficient English. He has collaborated with numerous prominent companies over the years and remains a well-respected figure among them. Fin offers an immersive experience into the depth of the region’s local culture.

Fun and informational tour with Nak - Nak was a great driver and tour guide from the moment we met him. He's super friendly, full of knowledge, and we even had some laughs with him. He made sure the ride was comfortable (asking how the A/C was, providing us with water bottles), since it was of course super hot. We enjoyed the refreshing waterfall, the lunch spot in Kulen NP, and the very cool temples and pagoda with reclining Buddha. Since it was a private tour (which we actually didn't realize), we had flexibility of time, which was great. I only have two tiny suggestions for improvement. One would be for the tour operator to send a note about what to bring, such as a reminder to bring a swimsuit, towels, and sandals for the waterfall, as well as sunscreen, bug spray, etc. All obvious things, but never hurts to have a reminder when traveling. I also would've liked to have had the opportunity to change into my swimsuit at the free bathroom at the park above the waterfall, instead of paying for the changing room at the bottom next to the waterfall. It was cheap at 50 cents per use and a dollar to store your belongings in a box with a lock and key, but I like to pinch pennies anywhere I can! Oh and while we did enjoy our lunch at the park (we had a whole grilled fish with mango salsa plus fresh coconut and mango juices), it would've been nice to browse the other vendors as well. Other than that, we really enjoyed the tour. Thank you, Nak.
