Best day EVER!!! Our guide Nick was amazing and friendly and always willing to answer any questions about the sites we were seeing. Would totally do this again!

High quality tours
I went on three tours with Mr Sop. I did the kickboxing one, silk island and a tuktuk to the killing fields. Mr Sop is very knowledgeable and tells great stories to explain the history and culture of Cambodia. I had an early flight and Mr Sop helped organise a quick tour of the killing fields so I could see it before I left at a very good price. Highly recommend especially if you need to tailor the tour to your plans
Response from the operator: We are very appreciated for all your review that would help us during this difficult time as it is slow season but literally say green season. Hope more tourist coming!

Wonderfull day!!
Mr. Sop was by far the best guide we had during our stay. He took us to amazing places like Udong Mountain and the Buddhist temples of Vipassana Dhurak, and between each stop, he shared fascinating Khmer myths and legends, the country’s history, and its culture—with plenty of humor and good spirits. He was incredibly attentive, making sure we were comfortable and even providing snacks and drinks throughout the tour. Furthermore he is a great photographer 😉 We can’t recommend Mr. Sop enough for anyone wanting to truly experience the beauty of this country!
Response from the operator: I'm very glad to read your review. This is very positive about our service. We will be taking care of all our guests. We will guarantee that all of guests are going to enjoy with our trip. Thanks so much again!

Why this scores 66
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Udong Mountain and Silk Island: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Phnom Penh.
How much does Udong Mountain and Silk Island cost?
+
Prices start at $75 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 Udong Mountain and Silk Island 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 Udong Mountain and Silk Island worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 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 Udong Mountain and Silk Island?
+
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 Udong Mountain and Silk Island 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 Udong Mountain and Silk Island?
+
Around 2 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 Udong Mountain and Silk Island 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.
