    There were many aspects of my trip which would not have been possible if organised as a solo traveller. Ultimately, our tour leader, Sum Saopheak, along with our group members were the main reasons I enjoyed my trip so much.

    Didn’t know what to expect and I was constantly happy with the activities. Our trip leader went above and beyond and was the main reason this trip was so excellent. It exceeded all my expectations. I’ve been on a few different trips with different tour companies and this was by far my favourite.

    It was a well organised trip, however I I got gastro within the first few days and I was ill for a lot of this trip which meant I couldn’t do everything. The parts I did do were really good. It was also really difficult finding vegetarian food I could eat when sick/recovering which was not enjoyable.
