Reviews
Lee was a great guide, very kind, calm and personable, as well as being knowledgeable and helpful. I had a great time on the back of the scooter and enjoyed seeing a different side to life in Cambodia.
weather was cloudy and some drizzles, not too hot. was interesting for the tour with beancurd, golden temple, silk island, fresh food market (local produce and fishes). pity that the beancurd production was on break as it have a wedding event. good to support local business and see some process for silk and beancurd, feels simple and primitive. bought some silk products. sat in carriage with 3 passengers and taking boat across 3 areas. would recommend the tour.
I just finished the tour today and that was a breezy and a fresh start of the day. A motor bike ride and a boat ride combined headed to the host family doing business. It’s a getaway from the hassle and bustle of the city. If you appreciate country life, this is an experience you would want to try. Two thumbs up to the Vespa Backstreet Team. You guys continue to do great and serve a purpose to the community. Special thanks to my Vespa Driver Wisan and Tour Guide Sok. I feel so pampered. Worth the price. Seriously. 👌
a good half-day trip! we’re lucky to have Tintin as our guide. he was very personable and shared with us information not just based on the itinerary but also general questions about Cambodians and culture. we went to quite a number of places and even had beer together mid trip. highly recommended!
This was an amazing excursion. I felt very safe in the vesper. Samnang (aka Lucky) was a good driver and was able to answer my many questions as we putted along! Trip highlights for me was the tofu skin factory (por pus sandek) followed by the silk weaving factory. Loved putting through the countryside amongst all of the farmland too. very much recommend this trip
This half day tour on Vespa is fun! Our guide leader, TinTin explained the places we visited in details so that we can understand how the locals live and their religions. The crew is very attentive to individuals need and make sure you feels comfortable throughout the trip. I will definitely come back and join other Vespa or cycling tour!
This guide (I have forgotten the name) was awesome and informative. The literary was smooth and well manage. He have give the tour a good time and experience. Suggest to go again in the future with brining my friend.
It was such an exciting and fun tour to travel by motorbike. Especially, when we went around the islands by boat, we saw tofu being made and silk being woven. It was such a new and special experience.
I enjoyed this tour so much. Somnang is an amazing guide and a lovely person. His knowledge is pretty diverse. He was very helpful in making me understand different things about Cambodia and not just the places we visited. He also helped me grab some local snacks, in addition to the ones offered as a part of the tour. As a solo female, I felt very safe and comfortable on the Vespa. What a kind, young gentleman! It was an eye opening experience learning about different local cottage industries as well as the history and the society. The tour is designed to support local communities and is very thoughtful.
Had a wonderful tour with Samnang. I learned about how people sustainably produce products from the palm tree and each step of the tofu manufacturing process. My favourite part of the tour was the silk weaving house. The owner was there that day to share the entire production process from raising the silk worms to weaving on the loom - really eye opening on how laborious and time consuming it is. It’s a family run business with knowledge being passed down from generation to generation. The current family has also looped in neighbors from her village to increase production and use her platform to sell products on their behalf.
