Explore curated a stimulating, well paced and enjoyable opportunity to see some of Cambodia's great sights. The group was just the right size to encourage good company, the hotels were friendly and comfortable, and the tour leader guided us, with many personal insights, through each day, helping with any personal questions/issues as they came up.
The hotels were amazing but the trip was so full on there was no time to appreciate them. Also 18 Wats in 3 days was too much. Tour Guide very knowledgeable and fun. Really enjoyed it all but I think it could have been broken up a bit better, not so many long days and a break from WATs. I would recommend
