Jess’ Review
November 18th, 2008

Jess, one of our friend from Terry Fox Run, is kind enough to review our Siem Reap guidebook and provides some very useful feedback.

What she loves about the guidebook…

  • the way the guide states the local celebrations/ public holiday - this prepares tourists in advance if they should give certain dates a miss or go particularly on certain dates to participate in the celebrations
  • the way the guide includes comments from tourists what they experienced - some were important lessons learnt by them when they were travelling
  • the way the guide includes wonderful, nice maps
  • the way the guide categorised the budgeted range of the accomodation and dining places
  • Culture shock and Charity - nice and fresh topic :)
  • all the website URLs clearly specified
  • Definitely useful for those who already decided SiamReap as their next destination
  • the layout is nice and systematic - I know what to expect and where to find
  • guides on what not to be missed on when eating and buying souvenirs, nice!

Other comments:-

  • Most e-books or websites does not update the information frequently, so the visitors to the the website might try to find alternatives when they found certain information out of date - there will be a lot of hardwork and consistency here needed
  • It will be great if there is a 1-2 page version/summary of what is the attraction of SiamReap - for some who dont like too much words? :)
  • I think most people (maybe people like me) have so much interest in Angkor Wat of all things to do in Siam Reap, would be nice if there is one topic on it’s own covering on Angkor Wat travelling guide.

Just to let everyone have a little sneak peak of what’s coming up within the next few weeks. a4tripians are working hard to make sure that more travel guides are going to be released and ready for sale by these coming weeks. So, that means more varieties of travel guides (in terms of different places and different languages) will be available for everyone’s convenience.

So, guidebooks that are currently ready and on sale are:

With all these goodies coming out soon, it looks like Christmas might be arriving a little earlier than expected :)
