Must do if you have a few days in Phnom penh - I guess silk island tour is a great way to spent a day. It takes you to the island near by phnom penh you have chance to see rural life, local producers. The atmosphere is super nice and much leas traffic. My driver Sam was super nice as all Cambodian people. He was super flexible in terms of arranging our trip. The company very reliable, and they take good care of you.

Silk tour was amazing! - My fiancée and I recently took the Vespa tour in Phnom Penh, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. Our drivers, Ream and Seer, were fantastic guides who explained everything with great detail and enthusiasm.
We started our tour at a beautiful temple, which set the tone for the day. The next stop was a tofu skin making factory. This was a raw and authentic experience that gave us a glimpse into the local culture and traditions. The highlight for us was visiting a family business where they produce silk from start to finish, from the worms to the final product. It was fascinating to see the entire process and appreciate the craftsmanship involved.
Throughout the tour, we felt completely safe and well taken care of. Ream and Seer ensured we had a comfortable and enjoyable experience. We highly recommend this Vespa tour to anyone visiting Phnom Penh. It’s a unique way to see the city and learn about its culture. 5/5!

Best experience ever! - We did the Silk Island Vespa Sunset Tour with Seer, who was a great guide and very helpful. We learned from life in the countryside of Cambodia. We enjoyed riding the Vespa through the small villages and visited a silk factory run by a small family where they taught us all the processes, from worm breeding to the creation of silk threads and the design and production of beautiful fabrics. They offered traditional Khmer snacks and fruits, water, and drinks. At the end of the tour, we had the pleasant surprise of watching the sunset over the city at the local restaurant along the river bank, which was very pleasant. I wish it had lasted longer! Thank you Seer showing us your country and thank you for organizing it Vespa Backstreet team.
