Must-do Phnom Penh experience - We came across Sam when we were looking at Phnom Penh food tours and reading the reviews- he got such glowing reviews we decided to book. And we are so glad we did. Not only did we try some tasty food at interesting places that we would never have tried on our own, we also saw some of the main sites of Phnom Penh all accompanied by Sam’s personal stories and insights of life in Cambodia. Thank you Sam! We would highly recommend this as a Phnom Penh must do experience

10/10 experience, tasty food! - We loved this experience and would highly recommend it to anyone travelling to Phnom Penh. Sam has an excellent knowledge of the city and best food spots, and is generous with answering questions and sharing stories about his life. Sam’s daughter joined us on the tour too and we enjoyed her company. We did this tour on our first night in Cambodia, and we were very tired from some overnight flights, Sam was accommodating and let us go at our own pace. We loved all of the food that we tried, thank you Sam for this excellent night.

Great Food Tour - Sam's food tour of Phnom Penh is fun and informative. You will eat many different local delicacies at both sectet restaurants as well as clean street food stalls. Beer and water are provided throughout the evening as well as frequent bathroom availability. In the middle of the tour, you will take a break from eating and walk through upscale parts of the city, not on orher tours. Sam has lived in the Phnom Pehn for his adult life, but he grew up in the countryside. This combination makes him very knowledgeable. He speaks very good English.

Live Traditional Night Music and Dance of Phnom Penh - This tour was a customised tour to the live night music of Phnom Penh. My tour guide, Sam is extremely knowledgeable of the city. This tour took us to 2 venues, The first venue was the Music 60 70's Restaurant and Bar, a fantastic venue, low key, full of ambience and a very authentic Khmer culture. The music was traditional Khmer performed by a talented band and singers, with also dancing on the floor. You can stop by for a full meal or just buy a drink whilst enjoying the music and dance. Staff are very friendly. More upmarket was the next venue, Yang Pov Restaurant and Bar Riverside. A classy environment. Again great live music with a fully featured talented band and a host of singers. A dance floor allows guests to join in with dancing and the waiters and waitresses will also participate. Lots of fun. There is plenty of ambience, with shifting lights and theatrical fog imbuing the dim and absorbing atmosphere. Again, guests are free to just order drinks or dine on the sumptuous menu available. Overall a great time and a highly recommended tour. Thanks to Sam for organising and hosting this tour.

A delight for the senses - This food tour is a great introduction to the sights, sounds and tastes of Phnom Penh. Sam will share local foods and culture through an immersive evening designed to delight your senses. Highly recommend this experience to get to know the city through the eyes of a local. I only wish I had been able to eat more!

Our Favorite Tour Guide in Cambodia! - I would select Sam as my favored tour guide for any selected tour in Cambodia. We went on his Oudong Mountain Tour and Temples Tour. It enabled us to see how Cambodians live outside Phenom Penn. Sams knowledge of Cambodian history and culture is unsurpassed. He maximizes your time in transit with stories and history lessons which provide a context for the temples and ancient ruins you will visit. His English is excellent and he readily responds to your questions. We have been fortunate to spend seventeen days in Cambodia and this was clearly the best tour we had on this trip. Next time we will definitely take his food tour and any other tour he facilitates!
