Day Trip from Sihanoukville to Phnom Penh for Cruise Guests

A full-day trip from Phnom Penh that visits Sihanoukville Autonomous Port, Phnom Penh, Royal Palace, Phnom Penh and Silver Pagoda. There are 9 stops altogether, so it fills the day rather than leaving long gaps between two or three highlights. The price covers Pickup and drop-off at the cruise port or Independence Park, English-speaking licensed tour guide at all sightseeing loca and Entrance fees for all sights mentioned in the itinerary. It does not cover domestic and international insurance sur, gratuities and tip for tour guide and driver, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price. Tuol Sleng was a Phnom Penh secondary school that the Khmer Rouge turned into Security Prison 21 in 1975. Of the roughly 12,000 to 20,000 people held there, a dozen or so survived. The classrooms still have the iron bed frames and the photographs the regime took of every prisoner on arrival. Choeung Ek, about 15 kilometres out, is where most were taken to be killed, and its stupa holds some 5,000 skulls; the audio guide there is narrated in part by a survivor and is the reason most visitors manage it at all. Both are done quietly, take about half a day together, and are not suitable for young children. The price steps with party size rather than multiplying: 1 traveller is $519, 5 is $1,294 and 8 is $1,862. You are quoted the total for your party, not a per-head rate. About Cambodia Travel and Tours runs it. We book with them directly, so the guide who meets you works for the operator rather than for a reseller.
