Review for: Join-in tour: Kulen Mountain, Beng Mealea and Tonle Sap

I had an amazing experience on this tour and highly recommend it. The itinerary was well planned, covering Phnom Kulen, the 1000 Lingas, Wat Preah Ang Thom, Beng Mealea, and Kampong Phluk. Our guide, Mr. Kim, was friendly, enthusiastic, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. Mr. Moon, our driver, was also excellent and made the journey smooth and comfortable. Everything was well organized from start to finish. The lunch was delicious, and we were provided with unlimited bottled water, cold wet towels, and fresh pineapple snacks throughout the day. What impressed me most was how this local operator supports other local businesses. Our lunch was prepared by a local chef, and they even gave us complimentary Cambodian scarves purchased from local shops. If you’re looking to visit the best attractions in Siem Reap beyond Angkor Wat, I highly recommend this tour.

Huge thanks to our guide Mr. Sareik and driver Mr. James for an unforgettable experience. The itinerary was well planned. There was no pressure to buy anything, and Mr. Sareik patiently shared Cambodia’s history, culture, and local life. His English was excellent and easy to understand. The van was comfortable with A/C, charging ports, cold water, and refreshing lemongrass-scented towels. Lunch beside the waterfall was amazing, with delicious local food and vegetarian options. What touched me most was Tonlé Sap. We saw real village life—children playing traditional games, families fishing, and people simply living their daily lives. Everyone was friendly, curious, and welcoming. Mr. James even bought us fresh local fruit, and we each received a traditional Cambodian scarf at the end. They also happily helped us take photos throughout the day. Their passion and sincerity made us appreciate Cambodia in a completely different way. Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

From the initial WhatsApp confirmation of necessary items to the small gift at the end, this tour offered the best hospitality. Both the driver and our guide, Makara, were constantly attentive to our needs. Their polite English explanations, along with the cold towels and chilled water provided every time we returned to the car, made for a very comfortable trip. The lunch was also delicious! (^^) Everything, including the trek on Kulen Mountain, playing at the waterfall, Beng Mealea, and Tonlé Sap, was perfectly planned and efficient. I highly recommend everyone to join this tour! I believe you'll have many experiences that you couldn't have on your own. By the way, we could also charge our devices and use Wi-Fi on the bus!

I highly recommend our tour guide, Mr. SA! It's a shame I didn't get a photo with him. He is an excellent, professional, and cheerful guide who is very attentive to everyone's feelings. If you need a private custom tour, please look for him. Also, his partner, the driver, was exceptionally good. He always had ice water and ice towels with a floral scent ready for us at every stop. I hope both of them get lots of work and earn a lot of money. During this trip, we saw the unique scenery exclusive to Siem Reap. Kulen Mountain and Beng Mealea were both beautiful. Although it's currently the dry season for Tonlé Sap Lake, I still think it's very much worth seeing to observe how people live there; it will give you better insights into the meaning of life. All in all, it was a perfect trip! 🥺🤲

Really nice experience! Every one should try this. My guide Mony and my driver Sothea are really helpful and professional. Both Banteay Srei and Beng Mealea are great palace to visit. And Kulen Mountain view is also amazing. Also remember to bring swimwear if you'd like to have fun in the pond and waterfall. Thanks again for all the service and nice picnic in this trip.

I participated alone, and in a word, it was simply a perfect trip. I had also taken an Angkor Wat tour with the same company before, and the guide and driver were incredibly polite and precise. They provided thorough explanations and proactively took photos for me at prime photo spots. I've been on numerous tours abroad, but this might be the first time I've been so completely satisfied. That's how good it was. Jan, our guide for this tour, and the driver whose name I've forgotten, were both outstanding. Jan, thank you for teaching me about Khmer culture at the end; your final words almost brought tears to my eyes. I truly felt the culture and pride of the Khmer people. The tour itself was very hot, but the driver constantly provided water, and cold towels were offered when we returned from sightseeing. Every detail was taken care of. I wholeheartedly recommend this tour. However, it's a long day tour, and Siem Reap is hot, with poor footing at the ruins and waterfalls, so it's quite physically demanding. I recommend being in good physical shape before participating. I also highly recommend other tours offered by this company.

The experience is very good. Although the itinerary is dense, it is not in a hurry. The tour guide will leave enough time for tourists to visit. The explanation is also very interesting. If you have any questions, you can ask the tour guide. A very good travel experience, suitable for all kinds of tourists.

amazing tour with Asean Angkor Guide. Our guide was Sa and he was amazing from the start and easy to chat with on WhatsApp for coordinating. the group was only 5 of us so felt small and private and it was on the verge of hot season so the plentiful cold waters and cold towelettes was a huge plus. lunch was great with veggie and chicken options. history of not only our destinations but Cambodia and Buddhism as a whole was excellent. the van had great AC and strong WiFi the whole time. And our driver Zhan was so kind and helpful if we needed anything. 10/10 would recommend if you have time. picked up around 730am and dropped off by 6pm because we had a small and fast group.

Highly highly recommend this tour, our tour guide August and driver Ta were both INCREDIBLE. August has a history and tourism background so he was able to share amazing stories. I was worried the tour would be too long and hot but it was the perfect length and pace for our group. The lunch was my favorite; we got to nap on a nice bamboo carpet to regain energy for the last part of the tour which was an incredible temple that inspired Angkor Wat!

Good to know

  • All admission fees are not included. If you have a valid Angkor pass, you can use it to visit the Beng Mealea temple. Otherwise, you will need to purchase a separate Angkor pass for US$10 per person.
  • We recommend bringing towels if you want to cool down at the waterfall of Phnom Kulen Mountain
  • There is no hiking at all at Kulen Mountain, but there is some walking between the attractions. You will be transported by minivan or bus from one spot to another.
  • There is a vegetarian option like fried rice vegetable with eggs, seasonal fruits and fried spring rolls, but no vegan
