We are a family of four - 2 adults and 2 children (16 & 11 yrs old). It seemed daunting to plan our trip to Cambodia as I had to ascertain a hotel in the city centre, local transport, tickets to shows and temple entries and most importantly language and food options. But after I found Kimkim and Steve, our tour planner, the holiday came together so beautifully and without hassles. Steve gave us a customised itinerary to suit our interest of having an active holiday closer to nature and soaking in the culture and history of Cambodia. Mr Arn, our Cambodian tour guide and child survivor of the infamous Khmer Rouge regime, shared personal experiences and stories which gave us a chance to be engaged and immersed in the Cambodian life.
Some of our most memorable experiences were the cycling trip around the temples, the trek on the Kabal Spean mountain, the APOPOS land mining rats and Phare circus. Each of these had been curated by Steve after taking inputs from me.
All in all, this was an experience we will never forget as we bonded as a family while soaking in the Cambodian way of life.

Hi Deepa,
Thank you for the lovely message.

I will also share the comments to Arn, who at the moment is at the Laos border to collect more guests. He is one of our favourite guides and know for his pleasant nature, and also vast experience of guiding and life in general.

It was also great to meet you and the family during the tour of Angkor Wat.
Please share your experiences with friends and family back home, and hopefully we will see some of them travelling using the Kimkim platform to get in touch with myself. Indeed, Cambodia can be explored with a nice level of comfort, we have some marvellous hotels such as Navutu where you stayed.
Thanks again and hope you are already thinking of your next trip to another exciting destination.
Best regards,
Steve.
