Cool Vibes - There were only 3 of us on this trip but our excellent guide made the trip a good one Very informative and cheeky ! The difference in the vibe on the island compared to the city was very welcome and most importantly there was no pressure to buy at the silk factory Thanks Guys

Superb morning adventure - A highlight of our trip to Phnom Penh. Our guide was super knowledgeable & gave us a great experience. The women making & weaving the silk were obviously so skilled at their craft.

Silk island boat tour - It was quite a quick trip but very good. Our guide was very knowledgeable and helpful and we were the only ones on the boat. He even talked me into having a beer at 8:30am! Watching the lady's making the silk clothing was fascinating, it was real old school and impressive to watch. They were also very funny. We asked one of the elderly ladies what happens if the silk breaks on her 50 year old wooden loom, her reply (in Cambodian) was i press control Z. 🤣

A highlight of our holiday - We recommended this day out to others in our hotel - they went today and agreed. We collected by our guide and a cute historical tuktuk. Onto a boat - we were the only guests. Unlimited beer which was generous. Lovely trip to the island viewing life on the river for fisher families. Silk island felt like genuine island life how it used to be. Hopping off the boat we were treated by cows having a rest out of the sun and a walk through family memorials. Our guide told us about his life as a budist monk. The most delicious stop to buy fried bananas & sweet potato to snack on the journey while viewing farmland scenery & crops before arriving at the silk farm. Under the stilt houses on the way, we could see woman weaving on looms but there were many more at the community silk centre. We were shown live silk worms and the process was explained before having time to look at the finished products- none are exported to be sold elsewhere - you can only get these silk items from this island. Each lady has her own design that they start learning from age 12. Our guide was off picking mangoes for a fruit platter on the way back. We loved this day out.

Good trip - Our guide was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of his life and knowledge. But no fruit tray so eat before you go. Lovely day on the river.

Never showed up, never heard anything from them after booking - They never showed up. I got charged and then received a conformation email. I was never contacted by the tour guides and they never showed up. I also had no way to contact them. This is my first bad experience with a booking through the Viator app
