$6.25 of this booking goes to village schools & clean water
That 5% comes out of what your guide and driver earn, not added on top of your price. They give it because Siem Reap is home, and it is part of how a private local guide still costs you less than the big operators. The rest goes straight to them, no middleman. We are new, so the first donation has not gone out yet. When it does, we publish what was given and to whom.
Your certified guide
Led personally by Sitha Roet, certified by the Cambodian Ministry of Tourism, with the sunrise timing and crowd-free positioning that only come from years on-site.

What guests say about Sitha
These are from his years guiding for other Siem Reap operators. The company is new; your guide is not.
