Brilliant tour - This was a brilliant tour. We loved our guide, he was so knowledgeable and interesting throughout. Ever thought we were in dry season we still saw everything and found the village so welcoming and interesting to look round. Small warning if your whole group don’t want to go in the forest you don’t go in the forest. But we looked at it from the edge. Wasn’t a big deal but just something to be aware of.

Great afternoon tour to Floating Village and Tonle Sap - We had a private afternoon tour with our guide Lucky and driver Song – and were absolutely thrilled. The two were on time, super organized and made us feel good from the start. Lucky has an incredible amount of background knowledge, not only about the Floating Village, but also about culture, everyday life and history in Cambodia. Everything was explained very clearly, and we could ask questions at any time. The tour was fun, relaxed and informative at the same time. We can absolutely recommend Lucky & Song!

A magnificent walk - We loved this ride. 2 hours boat to visit floating villages Count $23 per person (not CB). The site is beautiful and surprising Of course, floating traders will come to offer you notebooks and pens to distribute to children at abusive prices but there is no need. It's part of the game

Fantastic trip to see local way of life - This tour was fantastic , giving an insight into the life of those living and working on the lake and inlet. Our guide Sorphorn Tuon explained so much about the culture, history and how the environment changes over the year. Any question we had, he answered. We visited a local market, which showed authentic sights, sounds and daily life, followed by the lake tour. Additionally, we decided to be shown the mangroves and get to know the stilt village more intimately. A great experience with a fantastic guide and driver. Top marks from me!

Amazing 3-day trip around Angkor Wat - Great experience! Booked a 3-day trip to visit Angkor Wat areas and we need to buy tickets separately. Temples are exquisite and the sunrise is stunning. It’s lucky to have Pal as local tour guide. Great expertise in Cambodia history and temple design. Good at taking pictures is a PLUS! For those looking for a 3-day trip around Angkor and English speaking tour guide, this trip with Pal a good choice!

Best Way to Explore Angkor Wat – Comfortable, Fun, and Memorable! - We had an unforgettable trip to Angkor Wat with our amazing guide, Mr. Pal. The whole experience was smooth and enjoyable — he arranged car pick-up and drop-off perfectly, was very patient, and never rushed us while we explored the temples. He always offered cold water and refreshing towels, which was a lifesaver in the heat. Mr. Pal also takes fantastic photos — he knows all the best angles and hidden spots! The temples themselves were absolutely breathtaking — from the sunrise over Angkor Wat to the mysterious faces of Bayon and the jungle-covered ruins of Ta Prohm, everything felt magical. Highly recommend both the tour and Mr. Pal if you want to truly enjoy the beauty and history of Angkor!
