The expertise of this organisation is incredible. Mardy's enthusiasm for birding is infectious and his knowledge of culture is second to none. Staying in their eco lodge in Prey Veng... read more was great (the food and staff were exceptional) and I would fully recommend to anybody wanting a true Cambodian experience.

  I made a reservation through my hotel. A tour guide and a driver picked me up the next morning and brought me out a remote farming area outside of town.... read more My guide Reth Sarom really knew his species and managed to pick out more than 50 in about two hours of light walking. This is more of a "species spotting" tour and short on anecdote about them, so best for serious birders.

  Fantastic half-day trip for birdwatching organized by Sam Veasna Center. The guide was really competent and very nice.

  Dear SVC

We really enjoyed our half day bird watching trip with our guide Minear Chim. We saw 34 bird species, which given the season and very hot weather... read more was impressive.

The trip was relaxed and Minear was attentive to us all, making sure we'd all seen the birds he had spotted and checking and confirming species that we'd seen. Painted stork in flight, cinnamon bittern and yellow bittern were highlights and birds we had always wanted to see. Minear is very knowledgeable and always made a positive identification which could be relied upon.

It was also interesting to see the cultural aspects and daily Cambodian rural life along the road and at the birdwatching site. Again Minear was happy to answer any questions that we had, as well as to tell us about the inspirational Sam Veasna and the valuable work of the SVC.

Thank you for providing such a wonderful trip. Everything was easy and enjoyable from booking through to drop off back at the hotel.

Best wishes and good luck with your amazing work.

  I really enjoyed this tour and it was a nice change of pace from the temple focused tours more typical for Siem Reap. That said, birding in the back drop... read more of Angkor Wat is very special and will be a lasting memory. My guide (Preah)...More

  Our local tour guide took us here as he promised that we would love the trip. And of course it exceed my exceptions. We saw hundred birds which we have... read more never seen in Europe before. Very natural and conservative place to see!
