Free walking tours in Phnom Penh

Martin hat uns sehr gut und umfassend mit der kambodschanischen Geschichte vertraut gemacht. Er spricht hervorragendes Englisch und hat dieses sensible Thema respektvoll behandelt. Die beiden Orte der Erinnerung sind wichtige Museen und sollten unbedingt von jedem besucht werden. Die Zeitzeugen mit ihren Bücherständen gehören ebenfalls dazu, solange es noch welche gibt. Martin ist absolut empfehlenswert als Guide für Touren in Phnom Penh.

Martin has extremely in-depth knowledge about the complex history and context of the Cambodian genocide, and explained it in a way that was easy to follow for someone like me with only superficial background knowledge. The sites themselves are of course a chilling experience, and Martin made sure that I knew all of the context of what happened so I can properly understand it. He also gave me some alone time so I can look around and reflect by myself at the Killing Fields and the Tuol Sleng prison. I was actually the only person to book this tour that day, and Martin still organized everything just for me as a private tour and gave me the highest-quality professional experience. I would 100% recommend this to anyone visiting Phnom Penh, and especially if you are limited in time, this tour should be your number 1 priority. The amount of information provided is insane and could never match what you read on signs if you walk around by yourself.

Martin est un guide très sympathique qui connaît parfaitement l’histoire et la culture de son pays. Ses explications sont claires et il répond à toutes les questions avec une patience de moine boudhiste.

Martin organized an excellent walking tour, he told us many things about Cambodians history/culture and did this in a very engaging way. Thanks for the evening Martin. Looking forward to a great walking tour? Dont look any further.

Martin was an outstanding guide — so personable, knowledgeable, and engaging throughout the tour. The Phnom Penh Hidden Gems walk was full of fascinating history, art, and glimpses of local life that we never would have discovered on our own. It was both educational and enjoyable from start to finish. Highly recommend this tour and Martin as a guide!

Martin, our guide, was absolutely amazing. Visiting the Killing Fields and Genocide Museum was a deeply moving experience, and he handled it with incredible sensitivity and respect. His knowledge, compassion, and thoughtful explanations made a difficult subject both educational and meaningful. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting — it’s an experience that truly stays with you.

I enjoyed the walking tour with Martin. He has a very good knowledge about the history of Phnom Penh and Cambodia.

Excellent tour! Very informative but depressing.

Martín nos explicó de manera amena y muy completa toda la historia de Camboya relacionada con los jemeres rojos, y fue muy simpático y organizo muy bien la visita. Imprescindible si estás por la capital!

Incredible and knowledgeable guide who provided lots of information during the tour - particularly with the difficult nature of the topic. Drinking water was provided more than once. Definitely use Martin for your tour when you go!

Great tour and he powered through the downpour

Even if I personally didn’t like too much Phnom Penh, I really loved this tour! Martin is an excellent guide: he has a lot of humor and knowledge and he told us a lot of interesting facts and detailes about daily life in city. We really had great time with him and was a real pleasure to explore the city together. Thanks Martin :)

Very insightful and interesting tour to learn more about recent history in Cambodia. I was really happy that we made this tour instead of just renting the audio guide at the museum because Martin is an excellent tour guide. He gave us lots of information and answered all our questions. We couldn’t ask for a better guide, thanks a lot Martin!

Super guide !

Eine wirklich sehr sehr gute Walkingtour! Martin hat uns so viele Informationen gegeben, wir haben die wichtigsten Plätze in Phnom Penh gesehen und local food probiert! 😍 wir hatten sehr viel Spaß und es war ein perfekter Einstieg in Kambodscha 🇰🇭

Very interesting and funny way to know more about the culture, daily life, history and tradition of Cambodia. Martin was a great guide who leads us throught the different topics and places arpund the town

Martin had thorough knowledge about everything he was taking about. Lot of information and interesting stories from history and life. It was an amazing experience. I learnt more about the city in one go. If you arrive to the city, do this as the first thing so that you know what to do in the city and how to do jt better. He also has some experiences with the civil war and has seen how the country grew and changed. He is a living example from the past. He is very polite and patient ready to answer any question and answerd it with full information. The tour took a little bit longer than mentioned but never felts like it should stop. Happy to have learnt so history through Martin. I highly recommend to take this tour.

Martin was friendly and informative His knowledge of Cambodias past and present was impressive

The topic was heavy and detailed but Martin gave a good overview of the history of Cambodia during and after Pol Pot. The van was comfortable and the lady a good driver. Recommended

Martin is an great guide with excellent knowledge about Cambodian history

So human and genuine. An amazing type of person and someone who is so much fun to spend time with! And of course extremely knowledgeable and excellent English!! That's how I would describe dear Martin. I did all three tours with him, all three of which were very different from each other and each one was very successful! You should fall in love with Cambodia and Martin!!!!!

Martin was a professional and entertaining guide explaining the key facts about the recent history of Phnom Penh and Cambodia. We were really pleased with the tour, it's pace and the level of information provided! And it's always nice meeting other travelers and getting local tips and ideas from Martin and others. Highly recomended

Had a great tour with Martin yesterday! Came away having learnt so much about many areas of Cambodian life I didn’t know prior, and seeing many interesting sights and places I would’ve have otherwise found myself. Very glad I spent my first morning in PP taking his tour. Thanks again!

Martin provided an amazingly engaging and well organised tour today. He knows his stuff and gave us so much more information that I was expecting! We all left feeling very well informed and with new insights about this very complex topic. He shared stories in the comfort of the airconditioned van which I appreciated. I would highly recommended this tour to anyone coming to PP, especially if only in the city for a short time, with the added bonus of not needing to organise your own transport/pay for audio guides at both locations, getting to hear more personal accounts from Martin instead. Wishing him and his family, and Cambodia many years of peace to come!
