WHY KAANECT HAS ASKED SOUTHEAST ASIA JOURNEYS TO BE A PARTNER
When I hear the phrase “friends who are family” I think of the team at Southeast Asia Journeys. Andrea and I (April) have been working with the team at Southeast Asia Journeys for almost 20 years, when Andrea founded Journeys Within B&B in Siem Reap. We have all “grown up” together, but more than that, we’ve grown together. Working as a team, we’ve perfected the travel experience for guests - understanding the full travel experience, from planning to prep to every moment on the ground. In 2018, Andrea handed ownership of Journeys Within Tour Company to Narla Phay and Makara Put - who are owner/operators to this day. Narla and Makara care deeply about sharing their home, Southeast Asia, with travelers, and that care is prevalent in the details of guest’s trips. It’s funny to write about “Why Kaanect has asked Southeast Asia Journeys to be a partner” and the first thing I think of is “why WOULDN’T we?!”. Not only do we get to work with friends, but Southeast Asia Journeys and the whole team there are, without a doubt, the BEST tour operator in Southeast Asia.
