Pimp my tuk-tuk

Most of the temples of Angkor are so far away from each other that walking is not really an option.
Much easier (especially considering the very hot weather) was to use a tuk-tuk. Bulkier (and much slower) than the Thai ones, the Cambodian tuk-tuks are something like a covered remorque attached at the back of a motorbike.

Some drivers know how to pimp their tuk-tuk, so you are sure to visit the temples in style!

Our tuk-tuk driver was not Mr Batman but Mr Lam, and if you happen to be in Siem Reap, we can highly recommend him (contact him at lamtemple@yahoo.com). He was such a good companion around the temples, always offering us drinks, sweets and coconuts, and even bringing us to a local funfair with no other foreigner around!

Hail or shine, be sure to board Mr Lam’s tuk-tuk. Even a flat tyre won’t let you down!
