Your trip to Cambodia will feel incomplete if you leave Phnom Penh without doing this tour.
Mr.Martin has an incredible depth of knowledge and takes you through Cambodia's history from the earliest kingdoms to the recent past in a way that is engaging, balanced, and easy to understand. You can ask him anything about Cambodia, and he always has an insightful answer.
The tour is packed with fascinating stories, local perspectives, hidden spots, and plenty of delicious Cambodian food along the way. It is not just a history tour, it is a deep dive into the culture, people, and everyday life of Cambodia.
Be prepared for a lot of walking, but every step is worth it. By the end, I felt like I truly understood Phnom Penh and Cambodia on a much deeper level.
If you are in Phnom Penh, this tour is an absolute must.
Highly recommended.
Exactly what I wanted! A knowledgeable and friendly guide (Martin) who knows what is what, gives you genuine answers and advice to all the questions you ask, great historical knowledge, lots of practical stuff too (like helping with customs/tradition and language), bought us all sorts of interesting street snacks, he was very humorous too. BUT BE WARNED: he said there would be a lot of walking and a lot of talking and he wasn't kidding! So people who can't handle that may struggle. He does tells you when to rest and sit down when he needs to tell you important information, so I was fine. Although I've spent many years in other South East Asian countries and had some knowledge of its history, there was so much more about Cambodia and Phnom Penh that I hadn't heard before. Highly recommend!
An excellent way to spend time in Phnom Penh. Clear and prompt communication was a good start. Interesting and informative descriptions of Cambodia's religions and history enhanced the views of temples, monuments, and other buildings. The walk through narrow streets, weaving between local life was a highlight. The Central Market was bustling location. Throughout the tour, I was entertained, engaged, and educated. As per the title, the guide is a wonderful ambassador for his country. Very highly recommended.
Great tour learned more about Cambodia and Cambodian culture a few hours from Martin than I thought possible. Martin was a great guide who patiently explained everything clearly with a great sense of humour.
We both truly had a fabulous day. Guide way very knowledgeable and amusing stories.
Always ready to answer any questions.
Excellent
Martin was both very knowledgeable and lots of fun. We had a great walk and learned a lot about culture, politics, school, daily life and food. He also offered us very tasty snacks. Thank you Martin!
Walking tour of 3h with local guide around the main highlights of the city. Great experience, we got to learn about history, culture, religion and the Cambodian people.

Thank you very much for amazing tour!
The tour guide Martin was extremely knowledgeable. Introduced himself to everyone in the group, asked their name and where visiting from. He was helpful and made sure that all were accommodated as needed. This is a tour I would thoroughly recommend.
