I had a great experience with Ted today - it was only me and the guide on the tour and I can’t imagine the better setup. We met at 7:45 and took the ferry to the other side of the Mekong River, where we drove 16 km in the near villages. Our first stop was at the local house, thank silk farm and then Pagoda and local school. My guide explained everything along the way, and it was especially interesting to hear about the history and day to day life of local community. Ted provided me with some great insights into Buddhism. Really enjoyed it.

Fantastic! We loved taking the ferries, riding the bikes, and seeing a quieter side of Cambodia. The tour of the silk weavers was really informative and special. The local fruits and lunch were awesome as well. Our guide did a great job of telling us about different parts of Cambodian culture that we would not have known otherwise. Highly recommend!
