Really enjoyed our tour to Kulen mountain. The highlights of the tour was the river with a thousand lingas, the huge reclining Buddha and the waterfall in the jungle. On the way there we also stopped at the quarry where they cut the stone for Ankor Wat (and other temples) for a great panoramic view. Our guide Thy spoke great English and gave us a lot of info not just about the sights, but life and history of Cambodia. On the way back we stopped at a nice restaurant for lunch. There was always cold water available throughout the tour and we got Cambodian scarves as gifts from our guide.

My wife and I took the Kulen mountain tour in March. It was a nice break from the heat in Siem Reap, especially with the swim at the waterfall. The river with the 1000 lingas and the reclining Buddha on top of the hill were pretty interesting. Our guide Thy was very friendly and knowledgeable about history of the area. We each received free traditional Cambodian scarf as a gift.
