    Lasting Memories

    An enjoyable and interesting day. Seeing the Killing Fields and the Prison was an experience we will never forget and made us appreciate how terrifying that period of Cambodia's history must have been. Our guide was very pleasant and knowledgeable. I would happily recommend this tour.

    Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re so glad to hear that the tour left such a lasting impression on you. The Killing Fields and the Prison are powerful places to visit, and we’re glad the guide helped bring those moments to life with their knowledge and insight. It’s wonderful to know that you found the day both enjoyable and meaningful. Your recommendation truly means a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you on another tour in the future. Thank you again for your thoughtful feedback.

    Terrible

    Tour booked on TripAdvisor with tickets and itinerary confirmation received. Friendly and helpful Guide Sing arrived at hotel on time as agreed and visited Royal Palace and Silver Pagoda as planned. We were then taken on a boat trip and a horrendous “tour” literally on the back of a horse and cart..with no protection in 42c heat getting back to the boat after 30 minutes sunburnt, mosquito bitten and bruised from being dragged around literally on a cart. The only funny thing was all the locals driving past absolutely laughing their heads off as they waved hurtling past ..why wouldn’t they!!. We then got back to Phnom Penh side of river to be told by the guide (note the Mam holidays tour company use government guides)that we wouldn’t be going to Choeung Ek Genocidal centre (Killing Fields memorial) as that was not the tour the guide had been given (confirmed and I saw on his phone). The guide was really helpful but was told he could not take us to Choeung Ek ..I even spoke to them and showed the paid confirmation ticket and itinerary which the guide shared with his company ..still no. During this time tried calling the Mam Holidays support number which just rang and rang. Choeung Ek was the main reason of the Phnom Penh visit and was only a 24 hour visit before going on to Siem Reap same evening. Ended up going back to hotel and making own Emergrncy arrangements to get down to Choeung Ek so didn’t miss the opportunity. Booked 4 tours in Brunei and Vietnam before arriving in Phnom Penh..all brilliant and to plan. Inevitably things sometimes go wrong on trips but just makes you very unhappy when you spend so much time planning so it doesn’t. pictures from happy part of tour.

    Private Tour: Phnom Penh City Tour Full Day: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Private Tour: Phnom Penh City Tour Full Day cost?

    +

    Prices start at $121 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 Tour: Phnom Penh City Tour Full Day take?

    +

    Plan for about 10 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 Tour: Phnom Penh City Tour Full Day worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 64 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.7/5 across 18 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 Tour: Phnom Penh City Tour Full Day?

    +

    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 Tour: Phnom Penh City Tour Full Day suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Private Tour: Phnom Penh City Tour Full Day?

    +

    Around 6 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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Private Tour: Phnom Penh City Tour Full Day 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.
