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.
The tour was different from the one given online. The texts sent before the tour was very explicit in asking for - in fact demanding - tips. First he say he is 30 minutes late, then he is going on (and on and on) in a very long text stating why he should receive tips. He also wants comfirmation about the tips before the tour. Which is of course completely ridiculous!! Not everyone got the text saying he was 30 minutes late. The tour went more than than one hour over time. He was repeating himself a lot. He was also talking a lot about his own life and made several inappropriate statements/'jokes' ....
Excellent Guide and excellent tour a must !!!
Martin is a great guide! He is interesting, funny and knows a lot of Phnom Penh’s history. 5/5
