Best day out in Battambang - We had the best day ever with our guide Samol! Not only did he bring us to amazing places like the old bamboo train, the killing caves and the bat cave, he is also very knowledgeable on Cambodians history and could tell us the ins and outs of the countries past as well as answer all our questions. We will never forget such a special day. Could not recommend more. Thank you Samol, cheers mate! 😁

Brilliant - We had a brilliant day on this trip in Battambang. Scenery was beautiful, and we learned so much about the local culture, way of life and Cambodia’s important history. Our guide Mr David was absolutely fantastic. Would definitely recommend, and it covers all the key areas to visit in Battambang.

Great trip, Would highly recommend it! - Our trip with Samol was excellent, we visited the killing caves and bat caves and went on the bamboo train. We also learnt so much about Cambodian history. Samol explained this in a detailed but simple way, myself and my partner found it very interesting. The Tuk Tuk had a box full of water bottles and ice which was brilliant and he was a great driver. Every part of the day was great and this was thanks to Samol.

Authentic experience in Battambang - Very long experience, from early morning until after sunset, with which we could discover both the local crafts of Battambang and then the history of this country through symbolic places. As for the crafts, we got to try typical food made by small family businesses; although we were a little concerned about the Quality of food 24h away we can say we had no problems. Our Samol guide has always given us detailed explanations - sometimes excessively - about everything we did. I found the history of Cambodia very interesting, which I was not aware of. The overall experience contains both light/fun moments (like bamboo train) and some "deeper" ones like killing caves. A bit of a disappointment the final bats, from how they had been inflated I expected an epic scene that instead there was not.

A great day in Battambang! - If you want an enthusiastic guide with a great sense of humour and a wealth of information about Cambodia, choose Samol and his wonderful tuktuk Wendy. We went on a full-day tour and enjoyed every minute. From a serene and beautiful start to the day at Phnom Banan ancient temple to the sobering history of the Killing Caves, the activity of the Bamboo trains, and the wonderful sight of thousands of bats emerging at dusk (plus so much more), this was a fantastic day. Thanks, Samol!
