Jackie_F, Jan 2024
A really interesting tour with our knowledgeable and enthusiastic guide Jani (apologies for any misspelling). The visit to the royal palace was fascinating and beautiful. We were handed over to a museum guide at the National Museum who gave us an excellent insight into archeology and artefact management in Cambodia- a good introduction and background for visiting the temples of Angkor Wat.

Sam_V, Jan 2024
Great tour and recommend. Our tour guide — I apologize, I forgot his name — but he is pictured here, was great. I believe his name was Sina! He took care of us and made sure we knew the background behind all the sites. He took us to a nice market for lunch. And even took the time to escort us to a cooking class we had. A must do when in PP.

Excellent private guided tour of S21, plus a market

Unforgettable City and Food Tour with Amazing Guide
ader_p, May 2023
The city tour was an incredibly immersive experience, with Sam as our guide. His extensive knowledge of the city's history and culture was truly impressive, and his friendly and accommodating nature made the tour even more enjoyable. The sights and sounds of the city were so captivating that I couldn't resist signing up for the evening food tour that Sam also offered. During the food tour, Sam continued to impress with his knowledge of the local cuisine and dining scene. The food he recommended was simply exquisite, and I found myself savoring every bite. As we explored the city's culinary hotspots, Sam shared fascinating stories and insights about the food and the culture surrounding it. Overall, the combination of the city tour and the food tour created an unforgettable experience. I would highly recommend both tours to anyone visiting the city. Sam's expertise and friendly demeanor make him an excellent guide, and I would jump at the chance to join him on another tour in the future.
