Great in-depth tour!

5.00This was a really great experience and in depth tour of Phnom Penh. Starting with the Killing Fields and Tuol Sleng museum, you gain important insight into the history and tragedy of the Khmer Rouge. The rest of the tour focuses on Phnom Penh’s culture, with the Royal Palace, National Museum, and Wat Phnom. The tour is long, but it definitely takes you to the most important sites in Phnom Penh. Our tour guide Tom and driver were amazing! Tom was so informative - he really knew the history like the back of his hand and answered all of our questions in great detail - and our driver navigated the streets like a pro. They both were so friendly and welcoming!! We were very grateful to have their guided tour and knowledge.
