Reena_D, May 2026
We had an incredible full-day tour of Phnom Penh and couldn’t have asked for a better guide than Sina. From start to finish, the experience felt highly personalized and thoughtfully paced, allowing us to really take in each location without feeling rushed.
Sina’s communication skills were excellent—clear, engaging, and full of insight. At every stop, from the Royal Palace to the monuments and the Killing Fields, he took the time to explain not just what we were seeing, but the deeper history and context behind it. His knowledge and ability to share Cambodia’s story in such a meaningful way made a huge impact on us.
What really stood out was how approachable and attentive he was, always happy to answer questions and adapt the tour to our interests. It felt less like a scripted tour and more like exploring the city with a knowledgeable local who genuinely cares about sharing their culture.
This tour was the perfect introduction to Cambodia during our short stay, and we’re so grateful to Sina for making it such a memorable and enriching experience. Highly recommend!

Great day with lots to see and do. Some of the places we visited were horrific and eye opening such as S21 prison and the Killing Fields. Sina, our driver and tour guide was excellent. He was very knowledgeable regarding Cambodia’s history. As a result, it made the tour more interesting and enjoyable
Audrey_M, Feb 2026
This was an amazing tour with this guy he explained everything well
Thank you so much for a wonderful experience in your city
Danny_B, Jan 2026
I was picked up from my hotel and was really looked after by Mr Lee and his driver throughout the trip, we went to the famous and highest temple in phnom phen and all around the royal palace, we then went on to see some famous monuments here and then the killing fields and S21, Mr Lee had so much knowledge and explained everything with passion, he is driver was there picking us up and dropping us off every step of the way with refreshments and wipes to cool down with, last stop was the market. It was a really interesting trip and well worth the money!
Pamela_G, Jan 2026
We had a wonderful day with an excellent and knowledgeable guide. We enjoyed the combination of sights. We had planned to see the killing fields and genocide centre but I am very glad we did the full days tour and saw so much more that the city has to offer.
Danielle_N, Jan 2026
Sina is great, very kind helpful and knowledgeable! It gives you a really good understanding of the history of Phnom Penh which is so important to hear
Satheesh_G, Jan 2026
A good overview of Phnom Penh with key highlights. Royal Palace was closed so we went to National museum. The killing fields and S21 were emotional and educational.
NevinThomas_A, Jan 2026
Sana was a very helpful guide who explained everything patiently and made this a wonderful experience. We were picked up and dropped off at the hotel where we were staying which was also an added experience. Definitely recommend and a must do while you are here.
Carina_G, Dec 2025
Very complete tour. I’m glad we bought the tour that spent time inside the a Royal Palace. It hard to see and hear the events that happened but very necessary for people to know tge hardships of the locals. Sina was an amazing tour guide giving us sooo much valuable information. Also a great driver and offered us plenty of water, sodas and beer and bathroom stops all through the day. I strongly recommend this tour.
Teran_M, Nov 2025
The tour was wonderful and Sina ensured we all stayed hydrated during the warm day. Very informative tour. Highly recommended.
Michael_L, Nov 2025
Sina is a professional. Great tour. Took us to many of the core spots in Phnom Penh, gave us a history lesson at each, as well as personal anecdotes to show the impact key events have had on the ordinary Cambodian. Highly recommended.
James_M, Nov 2025
Sian was a great tour guide, passionate, punctual and knowledgeable. Cold water, soft drinks and beers included and available. Comfortable minivan.
Jackie_G, Jul 2025
We had our tour with Sina who was very kind and informative. The small group was great as we got to chat to the others on the tour (7 of us in total). While the history is sad, it is a worthwhile tour to learn about the history and culture of Cambodia.
Paula_D, May 2025
Jum Reap, was an amazing guide. He speaks slowly, making it easy to understand everything and also acomodate all the new information in your head. He would always look for shadows for us to be during the explanation, help with the street crossing, answer the infinite questions regarding the history, arquitecture, culture, etc. The van is very clean and new and it was amazing to have fresh water with such a heat.
Totally recomendable!

Greeting from Cambodia
First, I would like to thank you for visiting and provided us jobs.
Definitely thanks for your helpful and valuable review. "Jum Reap (Jum Reap Sur)" it's our Khmer official welcoming words! The tour guide was Mr. Sina.
In general, we wish you all the best, good health, health and see more good friends!
We wish to see you again 🙏
Tina_N, Mar 2025
This tour will get you around the attractions in PP . It is basically a driver service as you are driven from A-B . It’s nice to have an AC vehicle to travel in . The stop at the palace came with an actual guide arranged who was v good . We gave him $10 for his service bc we felt he added a lot of value . Do factor in the cost of getting into the attractions. Aside from the pagoda which was $1 each the others cost much more than advertised - like $10 each . You also need to pay extra for the audio guides - they do make sense of what you are seeing so I wouldn’t skip getting them . We were dropped off at the market , no guide came in with us which would be our preference as we like to be left to our own devices . However if you are looking for more hosting I would suggest booking a guide service who would manage each stop for you - this is a driver service . We were finished by 2 as we had elected to skip lunch until after the tour - the driver dropped us off at a suggested restaurant.
Julia_L, Mar 2025
Sina was an amazing guide, he spoke perfect English and provided cold drinks throughout the tour. He took great care of us the entire day and was so patient. It was a very sobering experience learning about Cambodia’s history. We would highly recommend sina’s service for a private tour if you are short of time or want to see the main sights in a day. The day was well planned out and we did not feel rushed at all: thank you sina for a wonderful experience!
Benjamin_L, Mar 2025
Mr Sena was very knowledgeable and gave good insights on the tour. Would recommend this all in one visit if in Phnom Penh.
David_W, Feb 2025
It was our second time visiting Phnom Penh and second time doing a city tour including the Killing Field and S21. The first thing for us was how much Phnom Penh has changed in 17 Years, it is now a buzzing city with high scrapers and probably lost some of the authenticity we felt during our first visit. But it is still a beautiful city with magnificent temples well worth a visit. Our tour was made all the more special by Sina. This charming young men is very knowledgeable with good English. Visiting S21 and the killing field and listening to his story and the story of his parents that were only children when Pol Pot took over Combodia was so humbling and really make you appreciate what the true value of life should be especially for us westerners living in our super materialistic world.
We definitely recommend a tour with Sina, you will learn so much and have a day fill with various emotions and create so many memories.
Thank you Sina for the amazing day you gave us and for sharing your story with us. All the best to you and your beautiful family.
Jeremie & David

This tour took us to many places around Cambodia's capital. We learnt so much about Cambodia's past history. Very moving at times. Sina was an AWESOME tour guide who was able to explain and answer any questions we might have had. I would definitely recommend this tour. Thankyou Sina.
Rhiannon_K, Jan 2025
Sina was an amazing guide to Phnom Penh. Lots of information and answered all our questions, with fantastic English skills. The van was air conditioned and all 5 of us had alot of room. Sina was on time, and really helped us explore the city and learn about the culture. I'd definitely recommend this tour.
Katherine_N, Jan 2025
Thank you Sina for making our trip memorable, we visited many sites in Phnom Penh and learned so much about Cambodia in short period of times, Sina explained everything throughout the whole tour and would always asked if we have any questions for him, always offered to take pictures for us, we had a wonderful tour with Sina and would recommend this tour.
RogerMerle_A, Jan 2025
This should be the first tour you take when you arrive. This tour will familiarize you with the city, the culture and the history!! This is an excellent tour led by an excellent guide!! Sina is very knowledgeable about Phnom Penh and the history. He is a great tour guide and made us feel welcome and comfortable all day. It was an absolute privilege to spend the day with him!! Thanks so Much!!!
Scarlett_C, Dec 2024
I think I got outsourced. I only went to 5 sites and finished after 5.5 hours (including a 1 hour stop at the market). Sina wasn't my guide however my guide was very good and spoke English really well, it just wasn't what I expected or signed up for. It felt more like a killing fields tour and was quite depressing and I missed out on several sites and I signed up for this because I only had 1 day, like many people. If I had known, I would have booked a different tour.
Response from Host, Jan 2025
Greeting from Cambodia!
Firstly, I would like to thank you so much for choosing my tour services.
Now I would like to show what happened!!!
I would like to express my mistake of not driving and providing information about those tourist attractions to you because I have health problems.
For human being, health problems can be changed or happened in one second!!!
Who can control that?
Remember!!!!
I organised a tour guide and a TukTuk driver to explore all the tour sites for the whole day!!!
You said you spent just 5.5 hours and missed the sites!
Why did not you check with my tour guide about the itenary and time before you decided to go back to your hotel?
While my guide explaining you the missed sites you said, you yourself said you visited all the places!
It seems like your excuse is unreasonable to put a burden on us. This is a deliberate and inappropriate comment.
Alright, thank you so much for visiting and providing us jobs.
We wish you all the best good health and safety 🙏 🙏 🙏
You said you spent just 5.5 hours

This was quite possibly the most informative tour I’ve ever been on. Sina is incredibly kind, polite, and exceptionally knowledgeable. I appreciate how he took thoughtful time to explain each site and the political history of Cambodia, which allowed me to have a much richer and deeper appreciation for my experience in this beautiful country. Thank you, Sina, for an excellent day together!!
Conor_D, Dec 2024
Can’t recommend this enough. It was an amazing way to see the best sights in Phnom Penh and learn about the rich history that Cambodia has. Sina is as genuine as they come. He genuinely wanted us to have the best possible experience and was very accommodating based on what we wanted to do. Highly recommend!!!
Mark_B, Dec 2024
I only had a couple of days in Phnom Penh before heading to Siem Reap to see Angkor Wat. I found this tour and felt it would be the best way to make sure I got to see all the important sites. It did not disappoint. I had my own car and driver (Mr Bora) and he did a great job of getting us everywhere, supplying me with water, and keeping me cool with the air conditioning. My tour guide was Miss Channy who was absolutely amazing and I couldn’t have asked for a better guide! A definite great choice on my part and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend!!!
Simone_S, Aug 2024
Cina, what an incredible day! Your knowledge, experience and explanation of your countires history was refreshing. Thank you for taking us around Phnom Penh's attractions; pagodas, killing fields, palace, S21, and even a spot of shopping in a local market. Definitely the only way to tour the city!

Exploring the vibrant city of Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia with Sina who was incredible. We embarked on an unforgettable adventure, discovering the heart of this culturally rich country. From the back of a tuk-tuk, we experienced the bustling streets and hidden gems of this city.
We visited the Killing Fields and the Genocide Museum, where we learned about the harrowing history of the Khmer Rouge era. It was a moving experience, reminding us of the strength and resilience of the Cambodian people. We also went to the Royal Palace, with its rich history and stunning architecture, which left us in awe of its beauty. Lastly, we visited Wat Phnom, a historic Buddhist temple founded by Lady Penh. The temple provided a peaceful retreat and a glimpse into the spiritual traditions that have shaped Cambodia for centuries.
This was an amazing tour, so don’t walk run and book this tour!

This was an excellent insight into Phnom Penh and Cambodias history. This complimented other tours we have also done whilst in Cambodia and now we have a greater appreciation of the richness of Cambodias history.
Sina is a wonderful, intelligent and happy tour guide. We were lucky to have him.
