Martin - Tour Guide in Phnom Penh

Hey there, my name is Martin, welcome to Cambodia!

I completed my high school education in 2003 and began my career as a teacher at the Remote Area Kids Organization. I worked as a Tuk Tuk driver, guiding tourists around the temples in the Angkor Archaeological Park.

After graduating in 2010, I undertook a six-month training program with the Ministry of Tourism to become a professional guide.

Upon completing my training, I began working as a local guide, leading tourists across Cambodia In 2012, I advanced my career by becoming a Group Tour Leader with Intrepid, an Australia-based worldwide tour company. I led tours throughout Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, and Cambodia until November 23, 2019, when the COVID-19 hit.

In 2022,I returned to the tourism industry with renewed passion. I am deeply committed to sharing my extensive knowledge and love for Cambodian culture, history, and traditions with visitors.

My work allows me to connect with people from around the world and foster meaningful friendships.

Thank you for considering me as your guide.

Martin our tour guide was incredible - extremely knowledgeable and his passion was very inspiring and admirable. I highly recommend this tour to everybody who visits Cambodia. It’s important as tourists that we understand and are aware of the history of the places we are visiting.

Martin is a great guide who can help you understand the complex history of his country. He is deeply knowledgeable and is always ready to answer any questions. He’s really passionate about his profession. I have done both of his tours, and they are a must, especially for those who know very little about Cambodia. Thank you, Martin. Excellent job!

Response from Martin
I would like to clarify the pricing details again. Before the tour started, I sent you a confirmation clearly stating the costs: • Tour transaction fee: $5 per person • Entrance fee: $8 per person (for both places) • Tipping: Minimum $10 per person (as per GuruWalk guidelines) At no point did I charge more than $40,000 Riel ($10). It seems there may have been a misunderstanding due to the language barrier. I understand that you speak very little English, which might have made it difficult for you to fully grasp the explanations during the tour. In cases like this, I highly recommend choosing a Portuguese-speaking guide to ensure a better experience. It’s quite unfair to rate my tour poorly simply because of a language issue, especially when other guests understood everything. I always strive to provide a great experience for all travelers. If you have any further concerns, I’d be happy to clarify them.
