We are on a OAT post trip to Cambodia following 24 days in Vietnam Here they train Giant imported African Rats (known as “HeroRATS) to locate explosives (smell of TNT). They presented us with a demonstration of how a rat identifies the landmine. The rats are trained by mixing in the smell of TNT with the treats they like. Want to hold a 3 pound rat = you can!!!!! NOT for TOM!!!

Very informative. More than enough information to help me understand the significance of this temple region to the Khmer people.

We had an amazing time in Cambodia with Vannak who was a fantastic tour guide. He showed us amazing places and had great knowledge of everywhere we visited. Our trip included seeing Angkor Wat, loads of different temples including where Tomb Raider was filmed. Vannak shared his experience of growing up in Cambodia and his family now and how they live a beautiful life. We got to see an amazing floating community and saw a traditional morning market, even meeting his mother while working on her stall. This will be a trip we will never forget and will share our tales with our family and friends for years to come. I can not thank Vannok enough for making our trip so memorable. We wish you well in your future as a tour guide and would highly recommend him to others.

After speaking someone at our hotel they said it was interesting and worth a visit if we had time. We took at Tuk Tuk and turned up, cost was $10 and lasted about 45 mins. Lots of boards displaying the work they undertake, a session of information then a demonstration with one of the rats. After you can hold them. The tour ends with a short film, we enjoyed our visit and learnt that is bits just Cambodia that use them.

This was a hard climb for us fit plus 60 year olds. There are 500 steps and it was 36 Celsius out. But once you get to the top the Pagoda is beautiful and the views are nice. Like all pagodas be prepared to take off your shoes and hats. Coming down was sure a lot easier then going up. Don’t forget to bring your water

The hero rats are amazing. I really enjoyed learning about their activities to save lives. Our guide to the Angkor museum was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and was willing to adapt to what we wanted to see.

Beware they try to cheat you by wanting to make you pay by bank transfer. Please be aware that only credit card payment provides any traveller full protection.

First of all, the ticket price is at a very normal level, not the 132 USD showing on TripAdvisor for some reason (don't remember the exact price). This is a large museum with tons of information, a good cafe, and I would highly recommend to go before visiting the Angkor wat ruins so you get a better appreciation of their significance. I really liked how so much detail was presented in bite-size pieces that you can either delve into or pass on depending on your interest.

Went there with local friends. Great option for half day tour. Can do it on your own no need to have a formal tour. Can climb 509 steps to top of pagoda and get amazing views. Very popular with local tourists. Lots of street food stalls with a multitude of food and fruit options.

There are locals that live nearby that don’t know about the work that the rats do. They find land mines by sniffing them out. There are many land mines left and they hope to have them cleared by 2025 so go and see them now before it’s too late.

For the price we paid for the tour was very expensive nearly $500 aud 1 adult and 1 child. Didn't get lunch but plenty of water. Our tour guide was good and the driver always had a smile on his face and always ready with water and opening car door. The tour was very short and wasn't far from our hotel. We could have just got a tuk tuk and would have been less than half the price. My advice would be organise the tour yourself as all 3 attractions are within 5 min of each other. The hero rats were the highlight of the tour.

It was a great time to visit Angkor Wat. I have booked an Airport- Hotel transfer from here. Our driver was great care in driving. Pick up time of my arrival flight on and well know our hotel location. It was easy to find my driver since he rais up a well come signed my name.

My car is clean and driver has pick up up on time, Clean car and great value. His driving is safe. Highly recommended.

Very informative and personal tour. The guide and driver were great. I would definitely remember it. Met some really nice local people. The trip is quite sad but it’s part of the history of the country.

It was an educational tour for me. Excellent tour in the museum.very informative and historical trip.
