“Had a great day on tour with Mr Seila yesterday, who was friendly, enthusiastic and passionate about telling his country’s history.

“Very nice tour. Good mix of temple and nature (didn't find any other tour with these two temples). Our guide Tan was friendly and knowledgeable. Confortable car with AC, water bottles and cold towels provided. Tasted banana rice and cambodian cake along the way. Only small negative point is the restaurant with "tourist prices", still reasonable (7-10$/dish) and food was good so that's ok. Overall a great experience!”

Spending time with these creatures you realise they hold a spirit that is greater than their natural size. It is an emotional experience feeding and walking with these animals and their marmots. The experience is something that i will use as part of my annual pilgrimage to Asia.”
