A private 4-hour Siem Reap tour linking demining rats, Wat Thmei’s memorial, and Khmer artifacts at Angkor National Museum.
“So cool to watch the clever rats working to detect the mines! My hats off to this wonderful animals. Our guide was very helpful and experience. The national war museum was good but stood in the hot sun a bit too long. Less time about history standing outdoors could be a challenge.”

Private tuk tuk day from Siem Reap to Banteay Srei, Kbal Spean, and the Landmine Museum. Jungle hike, carved temples, honest learning.
“We enjoyed visiting Bantreay Srei (well preserved carvings!) and the Landmine Museum (informative and sad). We hiked uphill in the jungle to Kbal Spean halfway when someone told us that the river was so high that the carvings could not be seen, plus that it started to rain, so we turned around. Our tuk tuk driver was late, but friendly. The tuk tuk ride felt a bit long for these destinations out of town, but it was scenic and nice to feel the breeze and rain. Overall good value. I would recommend it to anyone not bothered by long tuk tuk rides.”

It took me more than 3 hours to go around. 100%satisfied.”
