| WELCOME |
Cambodia's
capital is a fascinating mix of old and new, traditional and
modern, in a country with a varied history. Today, Phnom Penh
leads the Country towards a new era, with a lively and vibrant
feel, most notably around the riverfront at Sisowath Quay,
overlooking the mighty Mekong River. The resort of Sihanoukville
is Cambodia's leading resort on its small section of coast,
and offers a relaxed beach option.

| WHAT
TO DO |
Cambodia's
history is very evident in Phnom Penh, with the Royal Palace
and National Museum giving an insight in to the past. Out of
town, however, are stark reminders of Cambodia's more recent
history, where the Killing Fields and other reminders of Pol
Pot's reign can be seen. Down on the coast, chill out for a
few days after your sightseeing. |
| WHERE
TO
STAY |
Phnom
Penh has a reasonable selection of hotels available, with many
around Wat Phnom or on the riverfront. Standards tend to be
good. Options are more limited in Sihanoukville. |
| HOLIDAY
IDEAS |
We'd
suggest combining a few days in Phnom Penh with sightseeing
at Angkor, an hours flight apart, and this can easily be added
to other areas of the Far East, such as Thai beaches, Malaysia
or Singapore. From Phnom Penh, transfer to Sihanoukville for
a relaxing end to your sightseeing. Alternatively, take a look
at our tours and multi centre holiday ideas for combining Cambodia
with other areas of Indochina. |
| GETTING
THERE |
Bangkok acts as
the main gateway to Cambodia, with regular flights to Phnom
Penh. From there, it's around a 3 hour journey by road to Sihanoukville.
Phnom Penh also has regular connections to Siem Reap for an
interest twin centre Cambodia holiday, or onwards to other parts
of Indochina and the Far East. |
