Welcome to Cambodia – The Kingdom of Wonders! Hi, my name is Chamrong, and I was born in Siem Reap Province and I am a licensed tour guide in Siem Reap, home to the magnificent Angkor World Heritage Sites of Cambodia. I have been working as a tour guide for many years, guiding visitors through the Angkor Archaeological Park and other remarkable destinations across Cambodia. Finding a good guide is essential for a meaningful experience. I ensure that communication is clear and that the information I share is accurate and engaging. I look forward to meeting you and exploring the breathtaking temples and rich culture of my country together. Warm regards, Chamrong ID:2205 Tourist guide license 868REPY2s11>>s28403510

Overview of your Siem Reap tour

Phnom Kulen is the mountain on which King Javarman II initiated the royal "god of the king's linga cult in 802 AD, declaring a unified and independent Khmer Empire under a single ruler and beginning what would later become known as the Angkor period. The site is known for its carvings representing fertility and its waters hold special significance to the people of Cambodia. Just a few inches under the surface of the water, over 1000 carvings of Yoni and Linga are etched into the sandstone riverbed. The waters are regarded as holy, given the sacred carvings which also include a stone representation of the Hindu god Vishnu lying on his serpent Ananta, with his wife Lakshmi at his feet. A lotus flower protrudes from Vishnu's navel bearing the god Brahma. The river then ends with a beautiful waterfall. Phnom Kulen is regarded highly by Cambodian people as a sacred location and has developed into a great tour destination.

Chamrong was a great guide, very kind and knowledgeable and shared lots of insights into daily life as well as information about the park. We really enjoyed spending the day with him.

We spent a wonderful day on Phnom-Kulen Mountain with Chamrong. It was refreshing and invigorating to get out of the city and into nature in this beautiful park. We explored its holy sites, waterfalls and other treasures.

This is the second time we have toured with Chamrong and it will not be the last. He is a thoughtful young man and is accommodates both me and my husband as I am much less mobile. Our trip to Phnom-Kulen took us through beautiful countryside and in contact with local activities. Great break from Temple touring or for those on a second visit to Siem Reap. Would be an excellent trip for families with school age children.

Chamrong was very accommodating during this tour. We changed our minds about the tour and he gladly made changes to the itinerary to please us. We saw so much more than we thought we would. His patient, gentle manner made for two happy travellers!
