Excellent way to see the main cultural sites - This private tour was excellent. The tour guide was friendly, professional, flexible with the itinerary and my preferences, and extremely knowledgeable - she shared a lot of fascinating information about the history of the sites and Cambodian people. The tour covered all the main cultural attractions and central markets. I highly recommend this tour, whether you're a solo traveller like me or in a group - it was great.

Best private tour - When they say private, I thought that meant a small group. Nope. It meant just our group. It was amazing!

Essential opportunity to bear witness - Visiting S-21 and the Killing Fields memorial was an unforgettable experience. Glad we did it, but was a relief to finish the visits.

Great half day PP tour - I had a great time on the Half-Day Phnom Penh City Tour and would absolutely recommend it. My tour guide, Kakada, was fantastic. His English was excellent, he had a great sense of humor, and he was genuinely friendly and easy to talk to. He made the tour both informative and enjoyable, and did a great job explaining Cambodia’s culture as well as its complicated and emotional history. The driver was also great, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. The only constructive feedback I’d share is about the tour information itself, and this isn’t a reflection on my guide at all. It wasn’t totally clear in the description that you’re supposed to choose between a cultural-themed tour or a genocide-themed tour, since the itinerary seems to list all sites together but in other places it says you need to choose between the two option. That said, Kakada was very flexible and let me choose a mix of both, and I was able to pick four attractions, which worked out perfectly. There was also a small pickup confusion. The Viator listing said there were only two pickup points, so I took a Grab to one of the hotels, but later found out hotel pickup and drop-off was actually possible. Again, not a big deal, and more of a clarity issue on the tour company’s side than anything else. Overall, this was a really informative and enjoyable tour. Kakada and the driver did an excellent job showing me Phnom Penh, its culture, and its history. Highly recommended!
