    Hi Miriam, thank you for your review. The accommodation on this trip does vary in standard and this is described within our trip literature. On this particular trip, a single room isn’t available on every night for logistical reasons, and this is reflected in the day-to-day itinerary as well as your booking confirmation. The additional supplement you paid for your single room, only includes the nights where a single room can be provided. We appreciate that the homestay is not everyone’s cup of tea, however it is a local charity project that we are supporting – were we aim to work with the families to teach them about responsible tourism and how homestays' can benefit the local communities.

    Tracy

    Asked on December 11th, 2022

    We are interested in a tour for two people around Cambodia with a car and a driver/guide. We would like to visit monuments and nature (mountains and beaches) including national parks with trekkings (around 8-15 km). We would like to visit Phnom Phen, Angkor, Tonle Sap lake. We would like to see the dolphins in the dolphins of Mekong. Then, we would like to visit Phnum Samkos Wildlife Sancturay and Botum Sakor National Park, to do hiking (8-15 km aprox.) and do wildlife sightseeing in these areas. Could you give us an budget of the total cost including accommodation (medium level hotels). We could buy the plane tickets. Could you make us this trip?
