Day 2: Phnom Penh
Around 08:00, your guide will meet up at your guest house/hotel to discover and reveal the real Phnom Penh. We'll start at the Phsar Kandal morning market and bite into all of its delicacies and mouth-watering street-eats. We'll head to the old French Quarter, home to classic colonial architecture, and experience the contrast of gorgeously restored builds, and beautifully decaying abodes. We'll move further back in time and experience the Buddhist temple of Wat Phnom to understand the foundation on which Phnom Penh is built.
We'll then continue moving through the city and pass by Raffles Hotel, the old post building, the abandoned train station, and Cambodia’s largest market "Psah Thmei". You'll have the chance to discover the market’s best offerings, from antique coins, gold, and shoes to plastic goods, flowers, and food.
At the end of our city exploration, it is time to pay respect to the dark history of the Cambodian genocide. From 1976 to 1979, the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia with their own form of ultra-Marxism, resulting in the deaths of millions whose effects are still clearly felt today. Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (S-21) was once a high school and was converted into a detention and torture center during the Khmer Rouge regime. Tuol Sleng remains today to remind us and educate us about this dark time in Cambodian history. After a long morning, we'll return back to your guest house/hotel in Phnom Penh.

Day 3: Phnom Penh
In the late afternoon, your tuk-tuk driver will pick you up from your hotel and bring you to Phnom Penh's riverfront, where you'll board a traditional public boat. You'll pass interesting sights along both sides of the Mekong river. On one side of the river, you have the bustle of Phnom Penh with tall commercial buildings and on the other bank you'll look out over the traditional countryside with Buddhist pagodas and newer constructions. Sip a beer or enjoy a glass of wine, while passing by local villages where local fishermen moor their traditional boats and cook, sleep, and watch TV in their beds.
Get off the boat and explore the nearby night market where you can enjoy live music, local grocery and clothing stores, and pubs and restaurants along the riverside.
You'll return back to your hotel on your own whenever you're ready to go to bed.
