Phnom Chisor is a historical site located in Dokpor village, approximately 62km from Phnom Penh. It was built in the early 11th century by King Suryavarman and sits on top of a hill requiring visitors to climb 412 steps to the summit. A basic level of fitness is required to undertake this tour. The views alone make the climb worth the journey as it affords visitors a panoramic view of Takeo Province with rice paddies stretching for kilometers. It is framed on 3 sides by buildings of a modern pagoda. Inside the main temple there are Buddhist statues worshipped by the monks and lay pilgrims. An enclosure, partially ruined surrounds the ancient complex. In 1973 the area of Phnom Chisor was devastated by an US bomb attack and rebuilt in 1979.

My memorable day tour in Phnom Penh
The tuk tuk driver Tony arrived promptly at my hotel. He was very attentive to what I want to see in Phnom Penh. He drives me to all the places that were on the agenda and even shows me certain places that tourists do not see like selling dog and crocodile meats on the road side. Even though the site is not nice but it was an experience as I have never seen this type of stuff before. Whilst we were waiting for the museum to open during the lunch break he brought me to the Russian market which was bustling with activities. I even had an hour of blindman massage which was fantastic. What an experience. Thank you for making my one day solo private tour memorable.

Private Phnom Chisor Temple Day Trip from Phnom Penh: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phnom Penh.
How much does Private Phnom Chisor Temple Day Trip from Phnom Penh cost?
+
Prices start at $128 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 Private Phnom Chisor Temple Day Trip from Phnom Penh take?
+
Plan for about 8 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 Private Phnom Chisor Temple Day Trip from Phnom Penh worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4/5 across 2 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 Private Phnom Chisor Temple Day Trip from Phnom Penh?
+
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 Private Phnom Chisor Temple Day Trip from Phnom Penh suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Phnom Chisor Temple Day Trip from Phnom Penh?
+
Around 1 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 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Phnom Chisor Temple Day Trip from Phnom Penh 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 The Killing Field and Toul Sleng Genocide Museum (S21) Tour, Visit 11 Places in One Day including S21 & Killing Field, 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.
What is included in Private Phnom Chisor Temple Day Trip from Phnom Penh?
+

+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 317 listed pickup locations in and around Phnom Penh. Be ready about 20 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Private Phnom Chisor Temple Day Trip from Phnom Penh offered in?
+
It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Private Phnom Chisor Temple Day Trip from Phnom Penh?
+
