An Unforgettable Tonlé Sap Experience

We had an absolutely wonderful experience on our Tonlé Sap Lake and Kampong Phluk Village tour. It was one of the highlights of our time in Cambodia. Our guide, Sath, was exceptional. He shared fascinating stories about Cambodia, Siem Reap, and the daily lives of the people living around Tonlé Sap, giving us a much deeper understanding of the country's history, culture, and traditions. His knowledge and passion made every part of the trip engaging and meaningful. The tour itself was fantastic. We enjoyed visiting a market, a peaceful boat ride through the forest, spotted an adorable monkey, visited a local school supported by an NGO, and even had the opportunity to meet students during their English class. These experiences made the trip feel authentic and truly unforgettable. A special thank you also goes to our driver, Mr. Phallit. He was friendly, attentive, and professional throughout the day. The drive was smooth, comfortable, and relaxing, allowing us to enjoy every moment without any worries. We learned so much and highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Siem Reap. Thank you, Sath and Mr. Phallit, for an amazing day!

Fascinating experience!

Nak our guide and Phearom our driver were fantastic. All arrangements were very smooth. Nak was extremely knowledgeable about our visit and made the trip penalised through his experiences. We would highly recommend them! Thank you.

Fantastic experience 10 out of 10

This is a great experience to learn and understand about rural life. Our guide Nak was exceptional in his knowledge and attentiveness. We went on the trip with our 17 year old who recognised immediately from the Grand Tour ‘Seaman’ series and was instantly engaged. We would highly recommend

Visit, village, floating

We were lucky enough to share this experience with a local guide, far from the tourists in total immersion. I particularly recommend selecting a guide from the hotels! Very efficient
