Hey everyone, we, my boyfriend and I, booked the Ultimate Cambodia Adventure and it was incredible. In our group were people from Canada, America and England. My English as a Swiss was not really good but they were great. They helped and I made friends. The CEO was great! Minea has designed everything that everyone has fun. The tour was amazing, the country is beautiful and the people are amazingly friendly! You see so much and learn so much, just amazing! I'm looking forward to the next G adventures trip.
