« I have known John for over two years and have used his services on two trips to Siem Reap. Recently, he was so gracious in setting up a lovely and affordable guest house for me and my travel companions – it was nice to have him pick us up at the airport and already know we had great accommodations. The choice he made on our behalf was a true reflection of our travel style.

John is a very honest, caring and committed individual with a deep love of his country and the Khmer people/culture. He consistently looks for ways to introduce the traveler to the rich customs and folkways of the Khmer people. He is quick to recognize a tourist-trap and even better at finding uniquely inspired opportunities for authentic experiences.

I am a philanthropic advisor and educator who participates in charitable activity in Siem Reap. John has been instrumental in our ability to meaningfully connect with worthy causes and reputable people. When you are with John, doors and hearts open.

I highly recommend John’s services but even more, I recommend John as a trustworthy and professional individual who will take good care of you.

« I have had the pleasure of knowing Mr. John Teng for over 2 years. I first met Mr. Teng on a business-vacation trip to Siem Reap, Cambodia in 2003. He was the first taxi cab driver my business associate and I hired and he remained our driver for the duration of the trip. He continues to be our driver/tour guide, and has become a trusted friend over the years.

Mr. Teng is flexible to your travel style, whether you are a seasoned tourist or an international traveler. He speaks English well and can suggest a number of itineraries, depending on your interests and travel time, to introduce you to the Khmer people and culture, including Angkor Wat and other breathtaking temples. What is most important to share is that Mr. Teng is thoroughly trustworthy, honest, and is sensitive to your safety needs, which is critical for the woman traveler.

I am an occupational and environmental health nurse who has created a charitable practice in Siem Reap along with other women business associates. We could not have done this without John’s expertise as a culture broker. With John’s help, we have been able to conduct vital research, have made friends from around the world and have been able to contribute to the Khmer people in a culturally appropriate, sustainable and meaningful manner.

I cannot recommend him enough. He is a true ambassador of Cambodia. If you have questions please do not hesitate to contact me at www.karenbowman.com. Have a pleasant journey.

«In December 2005 my wife and I arrived in Siem Reap for 3 days to visit Angkor Wat and the Temples. We had been recommended by our friends to use the services of John Teng as our guide and driver. Upon meeting John we realized that his aim was to please and to make sure our time was used wisely. He gave us detailed background of the sites to visit and ensured that we saw the beauty of the Temples and understood the culture of his beautiful country. John has a wonderful manner with people and we felt that we had known him forever. John was always punctual, flexible, knowledgeable, considerate and proud of his country. The whole experience was fantastic.

We stayed at the FCC (Foreign Correspondents Club) and would recommend it to anyone visiting both Siem Reap and Phnom Penh. The facilities in Siem Reap are first class with the restaurant providing a good mix of high quality Cambodian and European fare.

All in all the combination of FCC and John Teng provided us with a wonderful adventure and one we will always treasure.

«Mr John Teng, Siem Reap, Cambodia's driver, guide, interpreter, negotiator, and now friend.

Planning a photographic trip to Siem Reap, Cambodia, I found John Teng listed as a driver on the web and e-mailed him. He responded promptly and after answering all my questions, I engaged him for our three week trip. I figured that at $25 a day he could make my life a lot easier as I couldn't afford to waste time on a learning curve.

John lived up to his every word, and more. He is prompt, friendly and helpful (he even voluntarily helped carry some of my equipment) and was always well prepared for the day ahead.

I had quite a hectic schedule and John was most helpful in sorting this out for me in the most practical way, taking into account preferred times of the day to photograph specific temples and traveling distances. His English is good and his knowledge of the temples extremely helpful, even if you do you own preparation.

John is also intuitive, and after seeing which temples I was concentrating on, he recommended a few lesser-known ones to me. Ta Nei is one that comes to mind's a beautiful, peaceful place that I had to myself for the entire afternoon. At the same time, he seemed to know just when to offer advice, make suggestions or when to leave me to myself to get on with my pics.

I recommend John without hesitation. He certainly enriched our second Cambodian experience and by the time we had to leave, had become a friend. I stay in touch with him and we'll see each other again some time.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

«We enjoyed out trip immensely and thanks to John for his insightful and dedicated service. The sights of Siem Reap especially in the Angkor area was described and explained in detail and my friend and I had the flexibility to plan what we wanted to do or see. Not only that, John's knowledge of the Khmer history made it more heart warming for visitors, like us, to understand the ways of life for the people in Cambodia.

Thank you John - we'll see you very soon again.
