Do this tour!

We had an incredible tour experience with our guide, Pal Saruon, and our driver, Vrak. Pal Saruon was extremely knowledgeable and shared fascinating, in-depth information throughout the tour. He struck a great balance between exploring a wide range of temples and thoughtfully selecting the highlights when needed, which made the experience both enriching and manageable. Despite the hot and humid conditions, his energy never dropped—he remained engaging, enthusiastic, and full of interesting facts the entire time. He was also a very good photographer and he already knows the best places to take a picture! Vrak, our driver, was equally fantastic. He was always ready with ice-cold water and refreshing cold towels, which made a huge difference in the heat. His attentiveness and care added an extra level of comfort to the day. If you’re pressed for time and just want to see the must-see temples, do this tour! Overall, a perfectly coordinated team that made the tour memorable, informative, and enjoyable from start to finish. Highly recommended!

Amazing Siem Reap 1.5/2 day trip

I spent an amazing 1.5-2 days in Siem Reap, experiencing the most impressive sights this area of Cambodia has to offer. My tourguide Bun was simply amazing, very knowledgeable about the countries’ and sights’ history and always having a joke to tell! I enjoyed my solo trip very much and hope I can come back soon! The highlights of my trip were visiting the Apopo charity, of course seeing the temples such as Angkor Wat but also spending some time on the terrace of a lotus farm, enjoying some lotus tea and ice cream. One other highlight was the newly established farm house in the rice fields to watch the sunset - such a quiet and serene place. Our driver Song made traveling from one sight to another a very enjoyable experience, driving safely and reminding me to hydrate/drink enough water in the cambodian heat. All in all, definitely recommend booking a trip with Journey Cambodia while you are in the country - and if you want to enjoy the trip even more ask for Bun and Song to accompany you!
