Tom was fantastic all day, his English is brilliant and is from a local village. Keeps it light hearted and full of facts, can’t recommend enough.

The tour was extremely interesting. The guide and the driver are both very professional. I recommend doing the mangrove boat tour as it is spectacular. The sunset on the lake is unbelievable.

Just finished doing this with guide Chout who was great - taught us a lot about what we were seeing and also answered all of our questions patiently. The tour was like a 45 minute drive down to tonle sap lake where we started off with a boat ride to the houses that are on stilts. We got off there and walked the street where these houses were. It was interesting to see all the families and kids running around and living their lives. Then we got back on the boat and went out to the lake for about 20 minutes, then came back. The whole experience was roughly an 8:20 am pick up and back at my hotel in Siem reap at 12:30pm. Great tour!

This sunset tour was truly unforgettable, thanks to Tom, who is an outstanding guide and a proud native of the floating village. His knowledge, kindness, and personal connection to the community made the experience incredibly special. As soon as we arrived, all the children came running to greet us—everyone knows Tom and clearly loves him. He explained the village’s way of life, especially how everything changes during the dry season, in a way that was both fascinating and heartfelt. The highlight was visiting the children during their English class. They were so sweet, curious, and welcoming. Being able to talk with them felt very genuine and meaningful. At the end of the tour, there’s an optional canoe ride through the mangrove forest. I highly recommend taking it. It’s a beautiful, peaceful experience and directly supports the local families who rely on tourism. Tom made this tour exceptional. His passion for his village and his warm personality created an experience I will always remember. Highly, highly recommend asking for Tom!

This really is such a great experience. The trip is like nothing we have ever done before.
