So much food!! Fabulous small group and Neera from Lost Plate Food Tours took us by tuk tuk to at least 5 different restaurants starting in the oldest, most basic street food vendor and ending in a modern cocktail bar. We sampled a huge array of local dishes including red curry soup, cheese fish, frog and banana sausages with as much free beer and water as you wanted. This is a great way to eat locally especially as my husband has a peanut allergy and we are always nervous about eating locally because of this. Neera called ahead to eat place to ensure all dietary needs were met (our group also included a vegetarian and a lady who is pregnant) and there were never any issues. A great fun night with good food and great company!

We loved this activity. We tried new dishes in a restaurant that we most likely would not have entered otherwise. Very interesting to know the Cambodian culture through its gastronomy. The great guide. The tour is highly recommended.

What a fantastic adventure, it was the best activity we did . Bikes were very simple to use. Wonderful route through the countryside, varied and interesting. We had a fabulous time and I couldn’t recommend it more highly . Thanks

Mr. Ouk Chantha was an expert guide, knowledgeable about the location and gave personal experience to the visit. He and the driver picked me up and were very pleasant to spend the morning with.

Awesome and very pleasant moment. This quad tour is definitely worth the detour
