    Amazing Service
    As a group leader for a small tour guide company I booked a Nekong River Cruise with Inside Travel and worked withvtheir local travel Expert Hong Nham. We began communicating and planning my cruise months before our trip. Ms. Hong helped me choose the right boat, the right itinerary, and length of the cruise. We had a wonderful time and every aspect of the cruise was patch perfect. With a very tight window between our departure time in Phnom Penh andvour flight at tge sirport, Ms. Hong went out of her way to arrange the speedboat to depart earlier with a quick turnaround at the border and a speed van to the airport. We could not have been more pleased with our service from Inside Travel and partucurly with Ms. Hong Nham. We will definitely use their services for all our future trips to Vietnam. Thanks Hong!

    Arrived via Mekong speedboat and sunset cruise absolutely stunning
    Most trips have you flying into Phnom Penh but I thought arriving by speedboat would be more interesting - and it so was! Lovely trip with free snacks and smooth visa process. Once in the city, did one of the sunset boat trips and it was one of the best water trips I have had. Really stunning colours as you cruise down the Mekong past temples and skyscrapers.

    Exploring the Mekong River with My Way Travel
    The cruise tour with the Avalon Waterways on the Mekong River was very well organized by My Way Travel. From the pick-up at the hotel to the tour itself, everything was very good. The trip is not cheap, but you can see everything in the Mekong Delta. The ship is beautiful, and the food was good too. The land tour before and after the cruise was also excellent.

    Wonderful Mekong Cruise Booked through My Way Travel
    Kevil organized our trip perfectly. From contacting us online to being picked up by the driver on time and checking for our allergies for the Mekong River Cruise, everything went really well. Our questions were answered quickly and reliably. If I return to Cambodia again, My Way Travel will be my first choice.

    Wonderful Mekong Princess Cruise
    We booked a Cambodia - Vietnam tour that includes 8 days from Siem Reap - Saigon by Mekong Princess. It's a perfect choice. The cruise had only 14 cabins and just about 20 people doing the trip. It's likely that there were more staff than guests on our 8 day cruise. All were perfect. We got great food, good itinerary through out. Our cabin was spacious, clean with very confortable bed. Our guides were very imformative. All the land tours were well planned. I would highly recommend Mekong Princess to anyone.

The cruises all have one thing in common - they charge a foreigner more than a Cambodian.
Maybe at this time a customers could insist on paying the same price as the locals, but then they will rob you on the price of beer or soft drinks on board.
However, for a cheap 50 cent cruise go over the river on one of the ferries, and travel back.
You could even take a can with you . . .

When in Phnom Penh make sure to take the river cruise there. No need to book expensive ticket on Klook- just walk at Sisowath riverfront and around 12-15 similar medium size double decker boats are all lined up. Fare is 5$ and you pick a drink of your choice - awesome.
It’s a 1.15 hour or so cruise and night views of city line are mesmerising. At boat you may buy drinks and snacks- no hassles.
A must do activity there.

I booked a sunset boat trip on the Tonle Sap and Mekong River. I thought it was incredibly beautiful, the guide gave us lots of information and the panorama was so beautiful together with the pleasant weather, I really enjoyed it. We then drove up to the bridge, which was lit up in the colors of Cambodia, a great 3 hours that were absolutely worth it. There are various providers, I booked with getyourguide.

It was a pleasant trip by boat. The Floating Village is a huge complex and the one we saw had about 10,000 residents, living in small houses side by side. The houses are built on stilts and during the rainy season, the rising waters gives the illusion that the whole village is floating. Fishing is the main-stay of the villagers. The children go to school by boat. The government has given them electricity connection. It is a marvelous sight to behold and one of the must-see places in Cambodia.

The sunset cruise on the Mekong River was a highlight of my trip. Watching the sun set over Phnom Penh’s skyline was breathtaking. The boat was comfortable, and the relaxed vibe was perfect for winding down. It’s a must-do for solo travelers looking for a peaceful and scenic experience.
