Reserve your date

Nothing to pay now. Reserving just holds your date on the calendar. You pay cash to your guide and driver on the day, in US dollars or riel.

Where your $110 goes

$5.50 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.

In their words

What guests say about Sitha

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

“Sitha is a great tour guide! He is very knowledgeable about Angkor Wat and other temples in the Siem Reap area. We learned a lot from him, both about the temples and about daily life in Cambodia!”
