Very interesting tour!! Me, my husband and his father had a great experience on this tour with our guide Vanna. We walked to the sampov mountain which was not a problem at all, not even for Josef which is 62 years old. Vanna explained us the history of budhism, hindu & pagodas what was very interesting. We also learned a lot about the khmer rouge and why they call it killing caves. Unbelievable.. For sunset we enjoyed a cool beer and very tasty snails while we were waiting for the bats. Never see something like this before. Thanks a lot Vanna for this excellent afternoon. It was very nice to meet you! Greatings from Germany! Karina, Philipp & Josef

I did this tour just this morning, and loved every minute. A great guide, decent bikes, a good flat, but sometime bumpy route.and great look into the real Cambodian, and the market we visit was quite experience. Not many tourists see that way of life. A couple of well deserved drink stops along the way helped with building morning heat. Fully recommended to anyone wanting to experience real Cambodia.

Get a chance to ride a very unique transport called ( Bamboo Train Ride ) on the railway from the French colony. People who live near the railway have an idea of making bamboo carts to transport their rice from fields to villages because they do not need to carry their rice home they just put them on the bamboo carts and push them home, which is a smart idea. Viewing millions of bats flying out of their cave after sunset, Avoid the tourist's crowds and seeing more Cambodian countryside.

This is a good off the beaten track experience that you will find if you travel to Siam Reap, Cambodia. I had a chance to go last November 2019 and booked as I had read a couple of reviews recommending this experience. I also contacted Angkor Cab in advance and asked about some minor changes in the original schedule and they agreed without any hassle. I actually requested to be picked up in a special location (the "Giant" bus station at Siam Reap) also at a “special time”: 5:45am. Eventually my bus from Phnom Penh arrived around 30min later but still I had no problem to meet my host at Angkor Cab (Pahna). We went to pay a 3-Day Ticket Entry Pass to National Parks at the Government Booth (mandatory) and then proceeded to Bantey Srei quite early (I was the first visitor of the day!). This resulted in very pleasant experience as I literally had the whole site and scenery for myself. Besides avoiding crowds (which by the way is NOT possible at Angkor Wat) you also have the chance to avoid most of sellers and other people which sometimes can be annoying. However, if you do want a guide through the site you need to ask in advance (and pay extra) or opt to give a tip (USD$5~USD$10) to guard or other staff within the site (in my case I just asked the guard to take me a picture and I gave a USD$1 tip). I would recommend you take an hour or so at Bantey Srei and enjoy strolling around the site and take some nice pictures of the scenery. I would also recommend grabbing a quick snack or breakfast at end of site (near parking lot) as food is quite good and extremely cheap (I had some nice pancakes, a coffee and a small noodle bowl for just USD$5). If possible, use the bathroom at this site as trip to Phnom Kulen Park would take around an hour and a half (with really no place to stop in between). At Phnom Kulen National Park you would go up several stairs and eventually access a shrine for one of the largest (if not the largest of its kind) reclining Buddha statue (note that it is mandatory to take off your shoes to access the shrine itself). Afterwards you can visit the waterfalls and even have a quick swim which is quite refreshing (water is mildly cold but still enjoyable). In case you need a basic swimsuit, you can buy it there (I think there was a “rent” option as well). You will later see the “1000 Shiva lingas” cravings in the bed of river and if you want you can also grab a lunch within this area (in case you missed it at Bantey Srei) or even take a look at some local handcrafts. You will then take trip back downhill to Siam Reap area (90 mins aprox.) which fortunately transport provided by Angkor Cab is very comfortable and with good AC. Also, you can chat quite pleasantly with your host (in my case Pahna) who besides being an excellent driver he is also someone very easy to talk to as he is very amicable and speaks a very fluent English and is easy to understand. Finally we had one last stop at some visitor center just before arriving to my hotel which is basically a souvenir shop. You might want to take a look around but I wouldn’t recommend you to buy much (or anything) UNLESS you visit first the Night Market at Pub Street (which has a much wider variety and cheaper prices) and buy something you didn’t find at the Night Market.

Went there today. It is not the derelict building as in the photo, it is totally rebuilt to a fantastic standard. Went in for drinks, prices reflect the surroundings - absolutely fabulous. The views over the sea and the interior are breathtaking.

The performance was good but the tourists were rude and got in everybody's way to observe the performance. I was so very frustrated that I finally just stood in the front by the side so that I could see. The food came up in staggered way from table to table.

Our tour guide, Bunhak, was amazing and made our day so fun! The Jeep didn’t seem required for this tour, but was a lot of fun. We could tell the driver and our guide had fun. He picked up trash everywhere we went which was nice to see- he definitely cared about the environment. The temple itself is unique, built up in the mountain. There is a lot of poverty in the surrounding villages, yet you could tell Cambodian’s genuinely care for one another. The way Bunhak interacted with kids was really cute- he even had a few practice their English with us! The lunch spot was very tasty- have a cashew shake! Food included was basic but good- best Amok we had all trip. We made a request to stop and get Kampot peppers and Palm Sugar, and Bunhak knew where to stop and helped us get a good price. We had a LOT of fun with Bunhak and he made our last tour in Cambodia very special to us. Suggest bringing sunglasses for the dust while in the Jeep.
