Travel Asia a la carte

Very comfortable and well placed in a quiet part of town.

Unique hotel a little outside of the town centre

Lovely old hotel with great views

Lots of temples and fascinating history about Laos and Buddhism

The night market was a lot of fun with delicious food and unique experiences.

Best day of our trip. Loved visiting the villages and meeting local people.

Lovely evening. The stories were fascinating, the storyteller was extremely engaging and the Khene player was incredibly talented.

Lots of fun planting, harvesting and preparing g sticky rice with our guide Sai.

The Ock Pop Tock weaving centre was beautiful and interesting. The guide let my daughter play with the silkworms for as long as she wanted to keep her interested. She found it fascinating. The food was delicious. The shop was quite expensive but everything there was very high quality.

My children enjoyed the zip line whilst I was terrified. The buffalo centre was delightful. They are very friendly and cuddly.

Maisons Wat Kor is an amzingly beautiful hotel. The staff are incredibly helpful and welcoming. The common areas are beautiful with amazing plantings. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and so pretty. Everything was perfect.

This hotel is perfectly situated and the just the right amount of luxury! It feels like it belongs here and yet is so comfortable, with great food, a wonderful breakfast every day, and incredibly helpful Staff. Also, the pool is absolutely exquisite and a lovely thing to have in such a hot climate.

Great way to see the city! So much fun!

Extraordinary museum. Great artifacts, beautiful buildings, wonderful experience.

Not super special -- food was mediocre, atmosphere not local, people all tourists, room very hot without ventilation (many had fans, but we did not!)

Awkward concept -- we were not comfortable during this entire event. Going through an impoverished village and then riding an oxcart, while locals zoom by on the motorbikes. Getting off a boat (when the ride was not necessary or appealing) and being offered champagne in a dirt patch by the river in the middle of the afternoon). I could go on from there. But, this was the only low point of the trip.

The Royal Palace was absolutely gorgeous and impeccably kept up. Great visit!

This is an incredible museum. We learned a ton about the history of Cambodia and needed lots more time for our visit.

We loved cruising on the river, seeing the city at sunset and just relaxing after a day of touring. Fabulous!

Not to be missed. So very sad, but essential to understanding the history.

I don't think that many people go to Banteay Srei, but it was absolutely beautiful and incredible. We loved the place, the intricate and exquisite carvings, the small number of toursists. And the drive there went through some nice villages. It was great!

Wow! The circus was truly extraordinary. We loved seeing these young people perform!

Loved spending the day going to these different places. The family who made pottery was especially great!

Surprisingly, we loved this. Super interesting. Great tour.

An oasis of calm in busy Phomh Penh. Beautiful spacious rooms and superb rooftop pool, bar and eating area.

This was worth getting up for. Hardly any people so you really felt connected to a very special place.

This was the one activity I wouldn't rave about. I think a trip to Made in Cambodia would be better. Unless you are a real art enthusiast, much of the work was impractical to buy being heavy or large in size. Of course there were some beautiful things but I did feel a bit obliged to purchase, not something I sensed elsewhere.

this was so wonderful. Terrific skills and a wonderful atmosphere.

Our guide Seyha was incredibly knowledgeable and his insights and love to the temple and its carvings really made our experience very special.

Well worth the effort! Cycling up to temples in the jungle is really quite special.

This visit was a highlight of our trip. The children were skilled and cheery and we also purchased some lovely mementos.

Just brilliant! Many delicious snacks and great company. Wann made everything fun and it was great to see how connected he was with the many stallholders we passed by.

Hotel staff were very friendly and accommodating. The food was great, the room was comfortable and I liked the set up of the shower in the room (in the corner) but if I had been with my family this set up wouldn't have worked. I never used the pool but it was in a pretty setting with lots of chairs around for swimming and relaxing.

I loved this hotel, the staff was absolutely amazing, they spoke to me every time I saw anyone, they remembered I liked ginger tea and would preemptively ask if I wanted some when they saw me. They would ask about my day, how I was feeling (I was sick while there) etc. There were fresh flowers in my room and bathroom sink, they had my name and flowers on my bed - just overall very nice. The bed was comfortable and I loved the leafy green scenery outside off the balcony. The location seemed a little odd, there is another hotel nearby but overall it wasn't really close to anything - then again since I was sick I wasn't doing my usual exploring on foot so I am not sure exactly where it fit in the city at large. Pool was nice and seemed like a relaxing spot, I got a massage and they was very nice - I would've done more treatments but ran out of time.

The hotel does its best to be a very nice place. The place feels like it needs updating.

Beautiful hotel but we felt stranded in the middle of nowhere. It was really a way of breaking up the drive but I wish we had stayed 1 night instead of 2.

We did this on our own and it was entertaining but very hot.

Completely and utterly amazing. We were there on the summer solstice and it was HOT but amazing. Sokin is a great guide.

We really didn't like the food. Fancy shmancy with tiny serving sizes. Not my cup of tea.

This was fine. It costs $8 each and we paid for our own drinks and walked from our hotel, so I'm not sure why we signed up in advance. There are many options.

Sokin is a great tour guide.

Sokin is a great guide.

The basket weaving itself and the firehouse ants were interesting, but our guide talked the entire time in Khmer with the hosts and didn't translate very often, leaving us just watching. We felt like spectators.

This would have been really fun if we hadn't boiled on the bike. We made it for a couple of hours and then switched to a car, which was gloriously following us. I imagine we were not the first to not want to die of heat stroke. The stops were interesting insights into rural Cambodian life.

Len is an amazing tour guide and this is an amazing place.

Udong was an interesting place to visit. Len walked us up to the temple and through the market, which was awe inspiring.

Inspiring

This place was fine. I wouldn't want to return.

Pretty cool to see a temple from the year 657 if I remember correctly. Pretty run down but that's to be expected in the countryside.

We loved the circus

Not a fan of the food.

This is a glorification of French colonialism. We left half way through the trip and tipped the tuk tuk driver who was not at fault for the content of the ipads and the blah blah about architecture from a French perspective without once acknowledging the cost to Cambodians of the French occupation. We complained and we were only given reasons why they offer this tour. Skip it.

The Made in Cambodia market was great. We ended up going there twice on our own. The Satcha market is super fancy and overpriced, but you get to see artisans at work. I guess if you have unlimited funds then you would get the nicest crafts there.

Fun to see the sights by Cyclo. We also visited Wat Phenom, which was great.

We loved visiting the pottery place. The family was interactive and super fun. And we were with Sokin who translated everything. It was great.

We stayed a very short time to see a traditional Khmer house and hear some family history.

Holy long day of touring! This was completely amazing and completely exhausting! Come rested and enjoy every stop!

We kept hearing about the bamboo train and it didn't disappoint.

Mind blown.

This adventure to a floating village is not for the faint of heart. I found it very challenging but it's one of the experiences I think about most often now that I'm home. Crazy to see 500 families living in floating homes. The river is their life and the sanitation made me woozy. I didn't eat a thing that was served since there was no clean water or soap in the vicinity, but it was eye opening, to say the least.

We loved our dinner at Spoons. It was delicious and the staff was great. What a great organization!

We loved our dinner at HAVEN. It was delicious and the staff was great. What a great organization! We went back on our free night and wish we had gone there again rather than going to Chempey.

Sokin is a great guide. This is a beautiful temple even though we were pretty templed-out by this time.

Not my cup of tea. Beautiful place but the food is super fancy with tiny portions.
