In addition to several landmark sites, we also saw many fascinating places that showed off the reality of living in in Phnom Penh. What we didn't expect was so many food samples including sticky rice deserts, sugar cane water and nom banh chok. We were very tired having only arrived in Cambodia that afternoon from the UK, but thoroughly enjoyed our hidden gems tour with Vichet. Thank you!”
