We chose this car service because of the excellent reviews and we were happy we did! Our driver, Socheat, was at our hotel early in the day of travel and had a big smile and lots of cold waters for the trip!
Our first stop was at the spider market in Skuon where we sampled deep fried and bbq’d tarantulas, grubs and crickets - they were actually quite tasty! A little further down the road we went to the bat temple which is an old abandoned temple that is now the home to many bats! It was next to a complex of beautiful new temples with an array of colorful stupas.
We had a nice lunch stop where we are local Khmer dishes and then on to the old Kampong Kdei bridge which is a marvel because of the way it has stood up to the test of time! The patina of the old stones used to construct the bridge is beautiful!
The last stop was at the fishing village, where we took a boat down the river to the lake and then back. It is fascinating to see how the fishing families have lived for centuries and to hear about the lake and how they fish!
We loved the experience and our driver/guide Socheat and highly recommend I am Cambodia Taxis for any of your travel needs in Cambodia!
