Summary: The trip to Mekong River was one of its kind. It was an unforgettable experience, visiting peaceful village, meeting the villagers who prepared fresh fruit and tea while playing traditional instruments and singing for us. We saw how the local people live and earned their living by making products made of honey and bee pollens, cocoa, coconut milk etc. Kate was very knowledgeable and very attentive. On the day we had to fly back to Sydney, the driver dropped us off at the airport. After checking in, I realised I left an art piece that I bought from one of the workshop, I contacted Kate and she told the driver to go back to the airport. We got our belonging, and flew back to Sydney happily. Thank you Kate.

Summary: We had a wonderful experience with Nia as our tour guide. He was very informative, helpful, and always responded to our questions promptly. Nia was courteous and professional throughout the tour. Crossing the Cambodia border was handled very efficiently and smoothly, without any hassles. I also really enjoyed hearing about his funny experiences and encounters with Australian wildlife. I highly recommend Nia as a tour guide!
