Martin – Austria

my private Tour was amazing. My guide Moeun Thearith and the driver sam rang picked me up in the early morning at my hotel. We went to the spot for the sunrise and we were the first people there so I had a good spot to watch it. After that we continued our tour like in the description. Because of the private tour we hardly had to wait at the overcrowded spots and I returned to my hotel around noon. Moeun Thearith was a great guide and photographer. He had a nice and funny way to explain everything.
