Free Tours en Nom Pen

Very good tour, Martin knows a lot about the history.

Wir hatten eine super Tour mit Martin. Er hat uns viele Informationen über Kultur, Religion, Geschichte, Leben und Alltag von Phnom Penh und Kambodscha gegeben. Zwischendurch hat er uns Snacks zum Probieren angeboten. Eine kurzweilige, tolke Tour!

Martin was great at providing historic information in an easy to understand way and always willing to answer questions. Has a great sense of humor as well. A nice pace of tour with his always making stops in the shade which was greatly appreciated.

Today I attended two historical tours led by Martin in Phnom Penh. Martin is not only deeply knowledgeable but also an engaging storyteller, making the tours both informative and captivating. He actively encourages questions, fostering a dynamic learning environment. The morning session explored the city's religious evolution, colonial-era development, and multicultural human landscape. The afternoon session delved into the traumatic history of civil war and the Cambodian Genocide during the Khmer Rouge era. This tour held special significance for me - a close friend's family are survivors of this historical atrocity. Through this learning experience, I gained profound insights into the heavy price paid by Cambodian people for independence, and reaffirmed the importance of humanity drawing lessons from historical suffering. This was a history lesson combining depth and empathy - highly recommended to all friends interested in Southeast Asian history!

Martin leads an excellent informative and professional tour. I highly recommend his tour on Guru Walk !

very competent guide that wants everyone to understand everything and includes a lot of historical and up to date (political) information

The tour and the tourguide were great :) Our group learned a lot. I really had a good time.

Dear Martin, Thank you for the Great Tour :)

Found Martin to be personable, good communicator , enjoyed a laugh enthuastic and informed us on a lot of history we hadn't appreciated. 5 out 5.

Muy buen tour con Martin! 100% recomendable!

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié cette journée.

Martin was an amazing tour guide and was able to provide so much fascinating detail that I know I’ll remember for many years to come! Highly recommend!

Martín a sido muy atento con nosotros en la explicación, aparte de darnos agua por el calor que hace. Nos ha explicado muchísimas cosas muy interesantes, se le entiende bastante bien en inglés. Muchas gracias!

No suelo buscar tours, pero curiosamente 2 personas en Siem Reap me habían recomendado este tour. Fue increíble, sin palabras. Muy recomendado.

Martin was an excellent guide giving great insight into Phnom Penh. The visit to the Wat was a marvellous added bonus I wasn’t expecting. Thank you Martin for a great evening

The tour was great, Martin, the guide was very knowledgeable, polite, funny and answered all the questions we had. I highly recommend the tour.

La visite avec Martin était vraiment super, nous avons appris plein de choses sur l’histoire du Cambodge, ses coutumes, ses religions… ! Son anglais est top. Martin est très sympa et drôle. Nous avons même pu goûter à quelques spécialités ici. Je recommande !

Great tour with Martin, who was friendly and amusing. We went to many interesting places and Martin was able to inform us about the history. We also visited the alleys and learnt about some street food and even tried some.

Really enjoyed the tour. Martin was very friendly and extremely knowledgable. I would definitely recommend this tour.

great experience. he will always answer your questions thanks to his extense knowledge (and good english). also great recommendations about the city and the rest of the country for the rest of your trip. 100% recommendable!!

Martin nos llevó a recorrer Phnom Penh contándonos poco a poco la historia de Camboya, cosas súper interesantes de su cultura, religión y costumbres. Probamos alguna comida en la calle y nos recomendó restaurantes y ensayamos uno de ellos y estaba buenísimo! Gracias Swan (Martin) por compartir tu historia y por todas las sugerencias!

Son grate

Unfortunately we didn’t really enjoy the Free Walking Tour. Even beforehand, we were given a recommended tip amount, which we found quite high for a free tour and felt it somewhat undermined the concept of a “free” experience. We visited the top sights in Phnom Penh, and Martin has extensive knowledge of the buildings and Cambodia’s history. However, we found it difficult to follow him, as he frequently jumped between different topics, and at some point, we lost track of what he was actually talking about. It felt like he was trying to share all his knowledge at once. The tour lacked a clear structure and a cohesive narrative. That being said, Martin is a passionate and dedicated guide, and his enthusiasm for the city is evident. With a clearer structure and a bit more focus, the tour could be even more engaging

Martin shared a lot of good information about the entire Khymer Rouge time period. This kind of information you wouldn't be able to find in a book. Highly recommend him. I understand Cambodia much better due to the context he has provided.

Martin ist der mit großem Abstand beste Guide, mit dem wir auf unserer fünfmonatigen Südostasienreise und überhaupt in den letzten Jahren auf Tour waren. Er ist ein kompetenter Guide mit einem fundierten Wissen über die Geschichte Kambodschas und ganz Südostasiens, das er spannend und humorvoll vermittelt hat! Wir empfehlen seine Touren sehr!
