Discover Phnom Penh’s heritage and culture with this exhilarating half-day city tour by traditional cyclo.
Experience Cambodia’s warm hospitality and the charm of Phnom Penh, a city where Asian tradition meets French influence. Located at the confluence of the Mekong, Tonle Sap, and Bassac rivers, Phnom Penh is the cultural and political heart of the country.
This half-day tour brings you to the city’s most iconic landmarks. Begin at the National Museum, home to more than 5,000 Khmer artefacts from the Angkorian era (4th–13th century). Explore ancient sculptures and relics that reveal the artistic achievements of the Khmer Empire.
Continue to the Royal Palace, the official residence of the King of Cambodia since 1866. Within the palace grounds, visit the Silver Pagoda, named after the more than 5,000 silver tiles that cover its floors. Also known as Wat Prakeo (Temple of the Emerald Buddha), it houses stunning Buddha statues crafted from gold, silver, crystal, and bronze.
Your final stop is Wat Phnom, the symbolic birthplace of Phnom Penh. According to legend, Lady Penh discovered sacred relics here in 1434, leading to the city’s founding. Today, Wat Phnom remains a beloved gathering spot for locals and a peaceful place to reflect.
After the visit, return comfortably to your hotel, having discovered the essence of Phnom Penh in just a few hours.
