“Disappointed the tour was cancelled”
Martin cancelled the 12pm tour on 16 Feb with less than 24 hours notice. We were disappointed as we were only in PP for the weekend (flew out on 16 Feb) and were really looking forward to the tour...maybe next time!

“Tour canceled with no notice”
Unfortunately, the tour was cancelled. While I completely understand that emergencies can arise, there was no advance notice given. We only found out after reaching out to the tour guide ourselves. Clearer communication would have been greatly appreciated.

“Excellent introduction to Phnom Penh ”
Martin introduced us to Phnom Penh and the relevant places to be. We heard a lot of detailed information about the historical background, how Cambodia is ticking, about religion, food and so one. Martin is a humorous and cheerful guy. The tour was a little impacted because we got amidst the preparation of the national day. So we also saw lots of security and military staff preparing for a large parade and the appearance of the king. The side effect was that the traffic collapsed. That`s why I arrived late at the meeting point On the other hand Martin had to choose some paths. An upside was that the were able to take photos of monuments without a single car. We can recommend the tour with Martins humorous comments.

“amazing history and food tour”
Martin was a super local guide with decades of experience. He guided us deeply into the history of this country and into its food specialities, in a funny and appealing way. He also drove us into the local market explaning and tasting things that probably we wouldn have done alone. We higly recommend him!

“Very informative tour”
What a great tour! The guide, Martin, has studied history and gave us a great
Tour with many insights and historical context. We happened to be in Phnom Penh during a holiday week, so some things were closed, but that didn’t detract from the information or setting. I would highly recommend taking this tour if you are in Phnom Penh.
