What and where to eat: 

In Siem Reap there is a wide variety of restaurants serving International Fare, from Asian to Western Food. We would advise trying the Khmer Specialties (Traditional Cambodian Food). When traveling with Angkor Tour Guides, we can provide recommendations of popular restaurants within the city and even accompany you to restaurants serving incredibly authentic Khmer Food on the outskirts in places that may not speak English.

Street Children 

Cambodia has had a very difficult history in recent times, and there are many families that struggle to make ends meet. Quite a few children are not given the opportunity to receive an education, as parents send them to work at very young ages to help support the family members. As can be expected in an area with such high tourism, quite a few end up selling wares near tourist sites or resorting to begging for money. The sad reality is that while they may work very long hours, the goods you purchase from these children typically do not support furthering their education or quality of life. If you are interested in making a difference in the lives of the future of Cambodia, AngkorTourGuides actively supports the community and children through CAPE (Child Aid Program for Education). If interested, we can arrange your visit to schools and areas near Siem Reap where providing just a few hours of your time, and possibly helping to purchase school supplies, can have a lasting impact on the children of Cambodia.
