Oudong Mountain historie og pagode tur

Had a fantastic day with Sam as a guide for this insightful adventure. Each moment with Sam and his driver was like opening a book and turning the page to find yourself in another world, another time, and a new moment. I really appreciated the education from observation, inquiry and a passionate relationship with the world Sam has the capacity to share with others. Thank you Sam for all the care you put into this tour. I highly recommend Mr. Sam as a brilliant person to meet.

Sam is the kindest, most generous guide we have had in our travels. He provided so much information and ensured we had all the drink and food we needed throughout the day. Highly recommend this tour to learn about about Cambodia, pagodas and monk life.

Sam from Kesar Khmer Tours was absolutely amazing—truly an outstanding guide. His nephew, Michael, was our driver, and we had such a lovely experience from start to finish. We were picked up in a very comfortable vehicle with excellent air conditioning, plus ice-cold water, which was such a nice touch in the Cambodian heat. Sam and Michael were also incredibly friendly, welcoming, and accommodating, always checking in and making sure we were comfortable and having a great time. Sam is very knowledgeable and clearly has a deep understanding of the history and culture of Cambodia—he’s been in the area for quite a while, and it really shows. He made me feel at ease right away, and I never felt rushed or overwhelmed. The day felt relaxed, personal, and enjoyable. Our highlights were the warm company, the beautiful lunch, and, of course, the delicious coconut we enjoyed while taking in an amazing view. It was genuinely a wonderful, authentic experience—one I won’t forget. If you’re looking for an authentic Cambodia experience, I would strongly urge you to book with Sam: Travel to Oudong—the former Royal Capital of Cambodia (17th–19th centuries), located at the base of historic Oudong Mountain. You’ll hike up to explore the royal necropolis, and along the way you can visit a fish market, silversmithing artisans, and a floating village on the Tonle Sap River. Thank you, Sam and Michael, for such a fantastic day!

We thoroughly enjoyed our tor with Sam to Oudong. He and his driver, Michael, picked us up from our hotel and made sure we had a well-paced and informative day and looked after us very well. Sam is an experienced guide who knows much about the history of Phnom Penh and Cambodia and we learned a great deal from him. He is good company and we would recommend him highly!

This is my favorite tour in Cambodia! Every year I get to travel to Phnom Penh and I book a tour with Khmer Tours. The guide Mr.Sam is one of a kind. I recommend this tour for adventure seekers, cultural enthusiasts and artisans. Sam knows the city and its people very well. People around Sam are polite and generous. The Oudong mountain tour is my favorite because it’s an experience that I couldn’t do on my own. With Khmer Tours I can safely transit to this historic site and listen to Mr. Sam talk of the local history. You won’t get this type of adventure just from backpacking. After ascending the mountain, the market awaits. The local treats and fresh foods are delicious. I always try new things that are in season. My latest group tour enjoyed a lunch picnic. Highlights: Hotel pick up and drop off Morning Coffee / tea Round trip ride English speaking g guide History lessons Local interactions and praise Friendly atmosphere Suitable for varying age groups Beautiful photography Cultural gem

Sam was very communicative once my booking went through. Advised me on what shoes I needed to pack for the hike up Oudong Mountain. The itinerary was just suggestions, so it can be tailored to your interests. We decided not to stop at the fish market but we did make a second stop at a different silversmith area to see all the hard work the local villagers put into their craft. There was no pressure to buy anything but honestly, once you see their craft work, it's hard to walk away empty handed! Arey Kasap Pagoda was beautiful. It was a hot day and our driver, Michael, offered us an umbrella for shade as we hiked up Oudong Mountain. It was very much appreciated. He was also always offering us cold bottles of water whenever we needed it. We were also given a welcoming gift of a Kroma scarf. Sam also took pictures of us through out the day and sent it to me before the tour was over. Fun day!

Great experience. Driver arrived on time and we even finished the tour ahead of schedule. These is best for those who are active as there is a lot of walking/climbing.

Sam was very knowledgeable about Cambodia's history. His personal story was very moving. He was happy to answer our questions. We visited several local markets which were very interesting and the Buddhist community, he explained their way of life.

Nice tour of Oudong mountain with its pagodas and stupas in half a day. Sam was a nice guide. The car for our journey was confortable. Recommended.

Despite I mixed up with the date for the oudong mountain tour, sam came and accompanied to the silk island nearby on his twin daughters birthday. I appreciate his efforts and his dedication to his family.
