Customer Reviews

Don't leave home without it!
The guide book is useful, interesting and really helps you make the most of your time in Cambodia. I wouldn't have seen half of the amazing places if I hadn't taken it with me. The information in it is accurate despite what the local taxi drivers may say!! Stand your ground!! There is no need to buy any extra guide books when you're there either - all of their information is included in this one.
The only thing the book doesn't prepare you for is the random overpricing that has occurred, the variation from shop to shop is immense. Shop where the locals shop and you'll save a fortune.

Great buy
Lively and deeply informative commentary for independent travellers like me who prefer to get away from the usual tourist crowds. Includes all the information you need about this fascinating country - political history, religion, safety and those offbeat excursions (plus where to get your hands on deep fried spider. Lovely)
