what an amazing tour!! Cambodia has been nothing but amazing and the people in Siem Reap have been so kind and hospitable…starting off with the new airport! Then the Breksa travel tours agent Raksa, that communicated with me beforehand of the temple tour, was so efficient by emailing all that I needed to know including pictures of our guide and driver. The tour was amazing! Angkor wat and all the surrounding temples are absolutely beautiful and the history behind them is fascinating. Our guide Mr Raman was really impressive and knowledgeable and was an excellent tour guide. He made our tour very enjoyable! Our driver Mr Moon was also so kind and helpful who kept serving us cold aromatic towels and cold water everytime we entered the bus since walking around the temples was so hot!! All in all I HIGHLY recommend booking this tour through Klook or through Breksa travels!! Really worth it!!!

Sam was an amazing tour guide for our Angkor Wat trip. He was super knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and added just the right amount of humor to keep things fun. He knew all the best photo spots and helped everyone feel at ease. The pace was perfect too, never felt rushed or too slow.

We had our tour on Fri (27th) with Tear as our guide. The tour itself is very insightful about the Kampong Phluk people about their culture, way of living and their economy. Tear is great at conveying the information and kept us entertaining with his perfect english. Very impressed with their effort in conserving the culture and they are in the development phase. The children are very cute and don’t be afraid to interact. They are just happy to play with people and the interactions are short as they need to go back to school. Going through Tonle Sap felt endless as it was huge. Though the sky was cloudy and we couldn’t see the sunset but the whole trip is fulfilling and you won’t regret it. It is a Happy Trip!

We had a great experience on the sunrise tour through several temples. Our tour group happened to be small - only 3 of us. Mr Sotin shared history of the temples, pointed out photo opportunities, and helped us to take many pictures. The car was always ready with water and cold towels to freshen up.

Jack was the best guide..always there to answer my questions.. and his explanation about his country was truly helpful to make me understand Cambodia more.. he brought us to see the floating village (the waters havent risen up yet but it was still interesting to see how they lived), brought us through a boat ride through the mangrove.. and to put a nice end to the day- we got to see the sunset!very much enjoyed the trip! highly recommended. Thank you Jack!

Amazing experience! Our guide Mr. Jack and driver Mr. Michael were punctual — picked us up from the hotel around 2:25 PM to Kampong Phluk. Mr. Jack was professional, funny, and kept us entertained with interesting stories about Cambodia’s history during the 45-min ride. At Kampong Phluk, we saw the local lifestyle and were warmly welcomed. Then, we took a boat to explore Tonle Sap Lake. We were lucky — there was a canoe ride through the mangrove forest, rowed by elderly women (not in the package, $5.50/person). We took it to support them — totally worth it! They were so cheerful and even sang while paddling. We also stopped by a local restaurant with unique souvenirs, then continued the boat ride till sunset. Truly a fun and memorable tour — highly recommended!

A worthwhile trip I would definitely recommend! Our guide Mr Sam also made the trip really nice and knowledgable. We were picked up on time and everything followed the itinerary. Breakfast food was included, and if you wanted a drink you would have to purchase yourself which is fine cause we were provided unlimited cold mineral water. We also had palm cake as a snack at the end of the trip. Refreshing towels (or as Mr Sam calls them cold Spring Rolls 🤣) was also provided throughout the trip. Overall I’d say good job to both Mr Sam and our driver for the day. It really made our trip even more fun and comfortable! Time passed by really fast as we were having a good time, and the whole itinerary also felt like a good pace. Good job to Mr Sam and the team! Highly recommended if you’d like a short circuit trip around Angkor Wat.
