My 9 yr old son and I had a great time tonight on the cruise. The food was sooooo good. I haven’t been that stuffed in a long time. the staff was amazing, they even took pictures for us. I would definitely do it again and highly recommend.

This was such a great experience. Due to low season it turned out to be a private tour and JB took me around to a number of different places to try the local cuisine (all of which was delicious) which I would not have found if I went exploring by myself. He is quite knowledgeable not only about the food but also the culture and Cambodia/Phnom Penh and south east Asia in general and we had some good chats. There were some foods that I was not brave enough to try and he was not at all pushy about it (I did eat a cricket though which didn’t taste too bad). Thank you also to the tuk-tuk driver who took us around safely and with professionalism. Highly recommend!

Our tour guide Sok is very fluent in English, knowledgeable and nice. First visited a local market where we have very nice Phnom Penh rice noodles and ice coffee, good taste and bought a bottle of homemade chili sauce! The history of wall paintings is sad but the art works are great. Then another early lunch of Khmer traditional cuisine, very tasty again. Good fun and value for money.

​We had an absolutely amazing time on the Phnom Penh city night tour by tuk-tuk! Exploring the city at night this way is a must-do. Our local guide, Kim, was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and truly made our tour excellent from start to finish. ​We got to see some beautifully lit landmarks, including Wat Phnom, the Central Market, and the Independence Monument. To make the night even more magical, our tour coincided with the Queen’s birthday, so we were treated to a spectacular fireworks display right near the Royal Palace! ​If you want a fantastic, authentic night out in Phnom Penh, ask for Kim and jump in a tuk-tuk. Highly recommended!

I like to try food tours wherever I visit. So when I came to Phnom Penh it was no different. The guide was Tin Tin. He was well informed about the variety of local Cambodian cuisine that we would eat. I appreciate the effort of a guide who can explain and mix the local food and culture together into a presentation. The food tour had many stops and a variety of Cambodian foods to sample. Each dish was unique and sometimes challenging such as the insects we were given to sample (with a beer 😊). Our group was a good size at 11 people but everyone had a great time and shared a few beer at the end. Thanks for providing a wonderful evening Tin Tin.

Joining this tour made visiting both sites completely stress-free. The bus arrived right on schedule for the morning pickup, which I really appreciated. Everything ran on time from start to finish, so we never had to worry about traffic or hailing rides between locations. ​The booking process was seamless, and using the bus was so much easier and more comfortable than trying to organize tuk-tuks on my own in the heat. We had plenty of time at both the Killing Fields and S21 without feeling rushed. It was smooth, reliable, and convenient.

We had a really enjoyable time on the Mekong Magic Sunset Cruise in Cambodia, and what made it even better was that there were only 13 of us on the boat. It felt relaxed and uncrowded, with plenty of space to sit back, enjoy the sunset, and take in the views. Of the 13, only 7 of us opted for the buffet, so there was definitely no fighting over the food! The buffet was simple but satisfying. It has chicken kebab, fried chicken, chicken curry, fried rice, and French fries, plus a platter of cold, fresh fruits. But let me talk about those fries. 😂 THE FRIES. They were so good that we completely wiped out the first serving. The crew noticed and actually brought out a second batch of freshly fried fries to replenish the buffet. Now THAT is service! Would definitely recommend Mekong Magic, especially if you prefer a more intimate cruise rather than being packed onto a crowded boat. And if you love fries… well, you already know what to do.

This was a simple sun set cruise but the best thing is the nets in front of the ship. You are literally 3m above the water and have soft pillows to enjoy the view.

What to know before visiting Phnom Penh

Phnom Penh at a glance — tours and river cruises lead the way

Phnom Penh’s bookings are driven mostly by tours and river cruises, with activity rising and falling noticeably through the year. Demand peaks in July and drops to its low point in March, so the city’s calendar has a clear high season rhythm.

When to visit — crowds, prices and best months

According to Klook booking data, July is the busiest month while March sees the lightest demand. Prices move differently from demand: Klook data shows September is typically the priciest month for activities, whereas July is usually the cheapest. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for March or other quieter months; if you’re after the peak-season atmosphere and the most activity, visit in July. Note that price and demand diverge here — the busiest month is not the most expensive.

Tips for travellers from Malaysia

Most travellers from Malaysia typically book about a day before activities, with some booking earlier up to around six days ahead, so you can be flexible when planning. For travel in July (the busiest month), consider locking in popular tours a few days in advance to secure your spot. Use Klook to compare local tours and river cruises and book the options that suit your schedule and budget.
