My wife and did this tour just us two. Our tour guide, Sen, and our driver, Jamesbond. Sen ended up taking many pictures of us, as was very kind and new lots of the best spots for a good picture. He was very thoughtful, and frequently took pictures and videos of us on his phone when we weren’t looking, and sent them to us at the end of the day. We have so many amazing pictures thanks to him.
Our driver always had a cold water and cold wipe for us when returning to the van after every temple visit, which was amazing to have since it was so hot out! Truly exceptional customer service.
The 1st restaurant we went to after Angkor Wat wasn’t as good as many other places we ate at- and that’s really the only negative thing we have to say about the whole tour.
We highly recommend going to Koh Ker- Sen mentioned not a lot of people go, and it was a magical experience getting to explore those temples practically alone. Prasat Bram in particular was breathtaking- like the “Tomb Raider” temple by Angkor Wat, many trees have grown on the temple buildings.
Instead of Beng Melea, Sen offered to take us to Kompong Kleang floating village. We are SO glad we did, as it was a completely different side of Cambodia to see. It was both humbling and awe-inspiring to see their way of life.
Sen had so much knowledge of Cambodia’s history, the history of all the temples (including the architecture and carvings) and we felt like he was truly welcoming and happy to share Cambodia with us. This is a tour you cannot miss!
