A mysterious destination like lost in an ancient city in the deep forest, I feel extremely excited when visiting Angkor, so beautiful, so special. It turned out that this is a vestige of a brilliant civilization that has been forgotten for centuries. Indeed this is the most meaningful trip of my life!

We are satisfied with this tour of Vietnam - Cambodia. Our guide and tour operator really cared about everything, found the best deals and locations for us, and categorized even the visa issues we missed. We are very grateful to them, and especially recommend this tour for anyone interested in traveling to two pieces of Indochina peninsula.
