    Tra, our guide in Cambodia was particularly wonderful. He told us some really incredible personal stories of how his family lived through the rule of the Khmer Rouge which were really touching and made our experience and understanding of his country so much deeper and more unique.

    It is a good tour if you want to travel overland rather than by flights. Hotels were adequate but the one in Battambang was disappointing. If the number in the group is small (we had six), the optional tours are more expensive if not all participate and may be too difficult and expensive if few choose to go. It is more reasonable to arrange tours independently from local companies than to use the Explore options.

    Thanks for your feedback. I'm sorry that hear that you found the hotel in Battambang disappointed - I have passed this on to the Product Manager to review.
