Full description

A half-day experience in Phnom Penh. The operator sums it up as enjoy an authentic, breezy ride through the capital in an open-air tuk-tuk. The price covers Transportation: Half-day private round-trip transit in an op, Parking fees & gasoline and Service: Friendly, English-speaking tuk-tuk driver. It does not cover meals, snacks, or coffee at the russian, personal expenses: souvenirs or shopping and gratuities: tips for your driver (option, 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 $65, 5 is $98 and 7 is $137. You are quoted the total for your party, not a per-head rate. Passion Indochina Travel Co.,Ltd. runs it. We book with them directly, so the guide who meets you works for the operator rather than for a reseller.
