    1. The Phnom Tamao Wildlife Rescue Centre is a wildlife centre located roughly 25 miles by road south of Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The centre was established in 1995 and with an area of over 6,000 acres of protected regenerating forest, this is the largest zoo in Cambodia. After an exciting ride by taxi through the countryside surrounding Phnom Penh we arrive at Phnom Tamao, which is home to The Wildlife Alliance. This nonprofit animal sanctuary spans 6000 acres surrounding a tree covered mountain. Here you will learn about important measures that have been taken to preserve wildlife across the Cardamom Mountains and beyond. You will have a chance to see tigers, monkeys, elephants, leopards, wild boar, deer, snakes, and more to discover. You will have the opportunity to feed fruit to the animals of your choice. We will spend approximately 4 hours on this visit.

    Must visiting this place, Tamiao and Chiso mountain

    We had a wonderful day at the wildlife sanctuary, where we saw many different animals. After that, we took a 30-minute drive to a small temple on Chiso Mountain, which offered absolutely stunning views. Our guide, Yi, ordered a delicious local lunch for us—it was incredibly tasty. Yi was very friendly, knowledgeable about his country, and spoke perfect English

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind and feedback. Have a wonderful trip...

    Cambodia Wildlife Sanctuary and Countryside Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phnom Penh.

    How much does Cambodia Wildlife Sanctuary and Countryside Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $159 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Phnom Penh usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Cambodia Wildlife Sanctuary and Countryside Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 11.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Phnom Penh is not rushed.

    Is Cambodia Wildlife Sanctuary and Countryside Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 12 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Phnom Penh, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Cambodia Wildlife Sanctuary and Countryside Tour?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Cambodia Wildlife Sanctuary and Countryside Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 11.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Cambodia Wildlife Sanctuary and Countryside Tour?

    +

    Around 4 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Phnom Penh can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Phnom Penh and add a light layer if any part of the 11.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Cambodia Wildlife Sanctuary and Countryside Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Phnom Penh within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Phnom Penh?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Phnom Penh experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Half Day Tuol Sleng S21 and Choeung Ek Killing Field Tour, The Killing Field and Toul Sleng Genocide Museum (S21) Tour, Killing field and Toul Sleng genocide museum Tour. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Phnom Penh?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Phnom Penh?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
