Hidden gem tour

Very worth doing, interesting to see temples different than the ones what you would find in Angkor Park. Bring a pair of comfortable shoes as there is a bit of walking to do. Had a great tour guide Ra, spoke excellent English and provided us with a lot of relevant information about what we were seeing. Ideal tour and I took many great photos of the temples and surrounding areas. Lunch in the village was also a highlight.

Excellent Day

Absolutely superb tour. The guide Try Dara was very informative and a fantastic photographer, taking many pictures for me. The driver Saray was extremely professional and made it a very smooth ride. As it turned out, I was the only customer on the tour. Great credit to the company for going ahead and not cancelling. If they cancelled, this would have meant I had pre-booked temple tickets and no tour to use them on. If you have multi day temple tickets, I highly recommend this tour.

Koh Ker and Beng Mealea with Mr. Tola

I took a daily travel to Kor Keh and Beng Mealea with Mr.Tola! It was a very long drive away from Siem Reap but he made everyone very comfortable on the way and shared very useful Khmer traditions and background stories. During the trip, he was also very patient and caring to make sure everyone in the group is included and feeling well under the humid weather. Strongly recommend Mr.Tola to be your tour guide in Siem Reap!

Not just Angkor Wat! Recommended tours!

Ra-san, who was in charge, handled the tour very thoroughly! First, go to the office to join the others, and then transfer to the bus for each tour. Although only three people participated this time, Ra's explanation was very clear, polite, and interesting! Although the suburbs are a bit far and the roads are bad, the pyramids in Cambodia were interesting, and it was a very good experience to climb to the top and feel the thrill. I'm glad I participated!

Friendly. On -time services

Best driver goes to Saray for my trip to Kor Ken and of course not forgetting my guide, Mr PHYROM. Loving their company for this trip. Saray is so attentive to our needs and discomfort so he is always preparing cold water and wet towels to receive us is when we are back from our temples Mr PHYROM is very detailed on the history on the temples we visit and of course our best photographer also. No regret
