Expect fixed Cambodian dishes, local beer, dessert, private transport, and a final rooftop cocktail.

“It was a wonderful experience, and I got to try a variety of real Khmer food. It was hard for me to decide which was my favorite because they were all so wonderful. Yi, the guide, is incredibly polite and hospitable and has lots of anecdotes and background information to provide about each dish. At the conclusion, he also brought us out for drinks at a classy rooftop bar, where we carried on our conversation and finished the dessert. Everyone traveling to Cambodia should do his tour, and you should eat a lot before the tour because there is a lot of cuisine to sample.”
