Full description

This is an 8-hour experience from Phnom Penh, built around Wat Phnom, National Museum of Cambodia and Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum. It is run by SARUS CO., LTD, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Phnom Penh sits where the Mekong, the Tonle Sap and the Bassac meet, and the riverfront promenade along Sisowath Quay is where the city walks in the evening. Koh Dach, the silk island, is a short ferry upstream and still has weavers working handlooms under their houses, selling direct. Oudong, 40 kilometres north-west, was the royal capital for more than 250 years until 1866 and its hilltop stupas hold the ashes of kings. The Central Market's art deco dome opened in 1937 and the Russian Market, properly Psar Toul Tom Poung, is the one for silver, silk and knock-offs.

The price covers guide, Bottled drinking water, Round-trip transfers to and from your hotel and Air-conditioned vehicle with insurance. It does not cover Admission to all attractions on the itinerary, Meals and beverages, Other personal expenses and Compulsory group admission fees, 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.
