  • Great way to see the country. We wanted to learn more about the culture and history of Cambodia that?s why for this part of our travels in south east Asia we decided to do the tour with G Adventures and we weren?t disappointed. We learned a lot about the country much more than we would have on our own. Having Lu to guide you and answer our questions was invaluable and all the guide that we?re used were excellent. We would highly recommend this tour and if you are lucky enough to have Le as a guide you will be in the safest of hands and won?t regret doing the tour. Thank a million again Lu and G Adventures. The Cambodia tour was fantastic. It was very informative about the complex history of the country and that is why we wanted to do the tour. Having Lu and local guides answer our questions and give detailed accounts was excellent. It was a great way to see the country. The trip felt really well paced and had a variety of activities.
