Chum Reap Sour again ! I'm Sophon, travelers usually call me Tom. I'm a very friendly, passionate, enthusiastic and trustworthy tour guide. I was born in 1988, just ten years after the Khmer Rouge Regime in a small village near the Mekong River in Kampong Cham province, about 170 miles from Siem Reap. I have three brothers and two sisters and we are all living in Siem Reap now. After finishing high school in 2006, I moved to the capital city of Phnom Penh, but the following year, stressed by the hustle and bustle of the big city, I decided to move again to Sihanoukville, the most beautiful coast in Cambodia and maybe in the entire Asia! Beaches there have shining white sand, super blue cleaning water, and untouched islands. Few years later, I moved to Siem Reap, the most famous tourist destination in the country, where I attended Engish Classes. After attending my TEFL in 2011, I graduated in English for Education in 2015 and I was ongoing of Master Degree in Education. Apart of these, I used to be an English Teacher in several NGOs including Life and Hope Association Organization, as well as private schools like Future Bright International School, etc. Now I'm a well-trained and licensed tour guide by Ministry of Tourism. I have been guiding travelers to Angkor complex and all over The Kingdom of Cambodia since 2016.

Moreover, I want to get to know and learn different cultures as well, meeting people from all over the world.

Your Siem Reap tour itinerary

Day1: (Please enjoy your own breakfast at the hotel) • 7:45am: pick up from the hotel by car for an hour then take a long propeller engine Boat Ride through a small canal leading to the village of Tonle Sap Lake and what you'll see through, the extreme greenery of the paddy fields, flood forest and mangroves, the monastery, the 7 or 8 meters stilted schools, church, and houses build along the canal before having a glimpse to a massive Tonle Sap Lake known as The Great Lake of Southeast Asia. Well, the lake connects to the Mekong River, reversing water during Rainy and Dry Season allowing hundreds sort of fishes migrating for their offsprings causing the lake to be the most productive Lake-River on earth. Undoubtedly, the Lake helps The Mekong River to produce fishes more than Yangtze, Amazon, Congo, or the Mississippi River. ** 11:40: lunch break at a local Restaurant for an hour and back to the hotel.
