Great experience!. Sok was such a wonderful tour guide. He gave in depth insight into the horrible events under Khmer rule. He is also very well versed in the cultural aspects of Cambodia, from politics, the economy, the everyday challenges of the people. Sok was open to discussing all aspects of life in Cambodia, making for a more enriching experience. Furthermore, he is a botanical guru, pointing out interesting plants and flowers,. It was a joy to spend my day with him.
