Siem Reap to Phnom Pen  - We wanted to get from Siem Reap to phnom Pen but didn’t want to drive all the way. The Tara riverboat gave us the opportunity to cruise some of the... read more journey. Through email correspondence we booked our place on the trip. We were picked up from our hotel in the morning by Var our driver. He spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable giving us interesting facts about Cambodia along the way. It took approximately 4hrs with a stop for refreshments.
When we reached the port side to meet the boat, the transfer was seamless.
The happy crew were waiting to take us and our luggage onboard. The boat was lovely and clean with sunny and shaded seating areas.
Sameth our host prepared us some delicious food and beverages on request. He’s such a friendly man, very attentive and kind. He too spoke excellent English and again we chatted about the history of Cambodia and Khmer. The river trip also took around 4hrs. We felt the whole experience was very straightforward and enjoyable.

A unique, special way to travel from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh!  - When faced with the challenge of getting from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh, we decided to do something different. Booking directly through the website was extremely easy - Peter was... read more able to confirm our booking the same day. Our driver Dara was at our hotel early, and throughout the 4.5 hour car ride to the riverboat, he also made a couple of fun stops for us and filled us in on the local happenings. Travelling via private car was very comfortable and made for some good views of rural life. We then arrived to the Tomle Sap River and boat section of the trip right on time, where we were transferred into the hospitable care of Samath. With the whole crew keeping us safe and fed (lunch was delicious!), Samath in particular was really helpful in answering the many questions we had about life in Cambodia and keeping us entertained for the remaining 4.5 hour trip. We also made a really special stop to a temple en route to PP. All in all, we loved our time on the Tara River Boat. We would definitely recommend this trip to all in SR or PP!

Magical three day tour of Angkor - We did the three day temple tour with the kbal spean/landmine museum on the last day with Dy. Dy is incredible - part historian, part storyteller, part photographer, and part... read more comedian. He knows all the best photo spots and ways to avoid crowds. The three days we spent touring with him were a barrage of wonder and education. Dy and our driver took excellent care of us - the car with aircon, eucalyptus towels, and ice cold water were sweet relief when we grew dizzy from the heat. This is the best way to visit Ankor - in maximum comfort, alongside a keen guide with an encyclopedic knowledge of the temples, a wealth of personal experience, and a wry sense of humor like Dy!

What an experience - What an experience ! Do not miss the opportunity to know more about beautiful Cambodia and its beautiful people! This trip for me was about knowing little more about... read more Cambodia and its people than its sunset.
