I was very happy to have chosen Green Era Travel for our Angkor Wat tour. We were 3 couples and we all enjoyed Seila Sann as our guide. He was very impressive in this knowledge of the Cambodian history. He also made sure we had pictures taken at the right places. To top it all, he was articulate in speaking English. We thank Seila as well as his companion, Chana, the driver. Thank you for a well-worth tour of Angkor Wat. We had a wonderful time.

We enjoyed the trip out, and a break from the other sites around Angkor Wat. The boat ride is pleasant, and it was interesting to see the floating village, it is the first time I have visited something like this, but guess that if you have seen one before this might not be the tour for you. We took up the option of an additional boat trip around the fresh water mangrove for $5, which again was enjoyable, but nothing out of the ordinary happens. We stopped on the way back to visit the Buddhist temple in the village, but I would have liked to have the chance to see something such as a school, or poke our noses around a typical house etc to learn a bit more about the way of life in the village.

Went for a tour of angkor wat with our tour guide Chet. We had a great time, the tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. He also brought us to a restaurant for lunch and showed us what he recommended to eat. Very nice tour and great experience. Our tour guide did a fantastic job answering all our questions and finding us the best spots to take nice pictures.

A nice and relaxing boat trip on Tonlé sap and through the floatting village. I guess that our guide was the only one who brought us to walk inside the village, whereas other tour operators made the tourists stay in the boat. So this is a great advantage! Thanks for that.

This tour was very well done. Borain was a great guide and provided a ton of information on each of the temples. He is also very helpful with taking pics. Highly recommend.

Een geweldige tour met een uitstekende gids, die veel vertelde van de omgeving en het leven in de paaldorpen. De mensen waren zeer vriendelijk en helemaal niet opdringerig. Super dat we na een tijdje werden afgezet zodat we dan een eindje te voet de paalwoningen konden konden bezichtigen. Alleen spijtig dat we onderweg niet even halt hielden aan de lokale markt om daar ook de sfeer op te snuiven. Een echte aanrader om Siem Reap af te ronden. Hartelijk bedankt Surat en de bestuurder. Het was geweldig!

Our guide was Vichet, he was very friendly & knowledgeable. For our group of nine he was patient it was like having your own personal photographer.

We have joined 2 tours to explore Angkor Wat, and met Mr.Phearom in these two days. He gave us detailed and interesting explanation on the history and architectural facts of the temples. It was great that he could always bring us to somewhere less tourists and explore the different side of the temples. You could feel his passion and beloved towards his own country, which brought us a memorable experience in siem reap.

We are fortunate to have a very patience English speaking guide Mr. Borain to accompany us for this trip. He is very punctual and waited earlier than us at our hotel lobby for the morning pickup. The pick-up vehicle is a comfortable and clean 10-seater van. Adequate bottled mineral water is provided, and prepared chilled ! What a relief for us during the mid-year hot season ! Once in the van, Mr. Borain gave us an overview on the visit and some expectation and highlights. Though we could get most of the information about the visit online and from other reviewers, there is always some hidden jewel or insider tip on the visit. So be prepared to listen and ask. The local guide is more than happy to share those tip with you, which made us even more enthusiastic on the visit. The journey to Kompong Phluk is about 45 minutes, slightly out of the city and Angkor Wat area. But Mr. Borain was capable to keep the journey enjoyable by feeding us with many historical background and current development about the village. More importantly, we were made aware that part of the cost we paid for the tour is channeled toward the tourism development and education welfare of the needy children of that village. This is a win-win formula for a sustainable tourism model for any part of the world. The best part of our visit is the low tourist season durng mid-year, which relieved us from the long queue and crowd during the boat ride. This has also allowed us to take as many photos during the trip without any rush. Mr. Borain has been very kind to help us as a photographer when we need to take a family or group photo at certain memorable locations or highlights throughout the visit. One important tip for any tourist visit from the end of May to the month of June, please bring along some light rain coat or umbrella due to the raining season. Otherwise it would be very hot, humid and dusty for most part of the year. Wear a comfortable walking shoes with light comfortable clothing would be suffice for most part of your visit in Seam Reap. Finally, our heartfelt thanks to our capable guide Mr. Borain for his proficiency in English and his patience in leading the tour. Well done to him !
