Cruising along the Phnom Penh riverfront, enjoy the subtle sounds of live traditional Khmer music on the upper deck. You can also view the scenery from the main deck for a more cozy experience near the bar. After passing the Royal Palace, we will journey to the junction of the Tonle Sap, Mekong, and Bassac rivers. Up the Mekong River, floating villages and fishing families live on their houseboats, depending on the water level and the time of year. You will see the sunset* over Phnom Penh near the junction of the three rivers.
We cruise down the Mekong River before turning up the Tonle Sap to take in the Phnom Penh riverfront skyline after dark. This perspective is stunning, only to be seen like this by boat. After passing under the Japanese Friendship Bridge, we return to port.
*To enjoy the sunset, a 5 pm departure is recommended.
