Full description

A 3-hour experience in Phnom Penh. The operator sums it up as relax on a 60-minute mekong sunset cruise with stunning skyline views. The price covers Professional tuk-tuk driver, Hotel pickup and drop-off and Round-trip transportation by open-air tuk-tuk. It does not cover sunset cruise 5$ paid directly to the do, dinner and gratuities and tips for your 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. 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 steps with party size rather than multiplying: 1 traveller is $42, 5 is $78 and 8 is $125. You are quoted the total for your party, not a per-head rate. Cambo Cruise runs it. We book with them directly, so the guide who meets you works for the operator rather than for a reseller.

  • Hotel pickup and drop-off
  • Round-trip transportation by open-air tuk-tuk
  • Chilled drinking water provided during the tour

  • Dinner

Important information

Meeting point

The operator confirms the exact meeting point and time once your booking is confirmed, and you will have it well before the day. If you would rather know before you book, message us on WhatsApp and we will ask them for you.

Weather

This runs outdoors, so the operator can call it off for rain, wind or sea conditions, and that decision is usually made on the day. If they cancel, you choose: another date, or your money back in full. We do not keep a booking fee on a tour that did not run.

Although the price was very cheap too much time was spent cruising up the Mekong . Returning the boat did not travel very far downstream where several very colourful boats were sailing making for good photographs of them and the city skyscraper background. The night Tuktuk ride was excellent with our driver stopping several times to recommend photo opportunities .
