Awesome tour with an awesome guide! Thanks Mon for taking us to explore the island and explaining us a lot of things. Highly suggested

I did the tour with Mon, amazing guide, I really recommend it

This could be quite an emotional experience but you have to take it as an historical period that the country has recovered from but will never forget. Our guide spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable about dates and events, I would recommend it as a very interesting tour.

Such a fabulous day, Sina is so knowledgeable, informative and so interesting g to listen to. As harrowing as it is visiting S21 and the killing fields, Sina gave all of the background information to easily understand each site we visited.Vehicle nicely air conditioned and cold drinks constantly offered throughout the day.Thank you so much Sina for such a fantastic day.Kate & Ian

Ran was our guide. Very informative tour. Learned alot, much more than you would thru a textbook. Highly recommend.

Wonderful Full-Day Tour with SinaWe had a very well-planned full-day tour covering the Killing Fields, S21 Prison, the Royal Palace and more. Everything was organised perfectly, and we travelled in a very comfortable van with a small group of just two people, which made the experience feel very personal.The Killing Fields and S21 were, understandably, very heavy and emotional experiences. Sina was incredibly knowledgeable and explained the history with great depth and sensitivity. His English was excellent, and we never felt the need for audio guides because his explanations were so clear and engaging.Sina made the whole day informative, comfortable and easy, while giving us plenty of time at each place. Highly recommended if you want to understand Phnom Penh and Cambodia’s history beyond simply seeing the sights.

This was our second tour in Cambodia with Lost Plate, and it was just as great as the first! We loved exploring Phnom Penh and trying so many new dishes at local restaurants – everything was delicious. It was also fantastic getting to know Chea and hearing more about Cambodia and Phnom Penh from him. He was a brilliant tour guide, really friendly and knowledgeable, and we had such a good laugh with him along the way. We had a great time and would highly recommend this tour!

We did a Lost Plates food tour in Siem Reap and we enjoyed it so much that we wanted to do another in Phnom Penh. The tour was absolutely amazing, we went to a number of different places and tried lots of great local foods in restaurants tourists wouldn’t usually go to. Our guide, Chea was absolutely amazing. He was so charismatic, funny and a great person to spend time with whilst going round a busy city. We got on so well and he was a big reason why the experience was so special. Chea is such an interesting person and works so hard to make sure you’re having the best time. There is lots of food so arrive hungry. I highly recommend doing food tours with Lost Plates

The guide was informative and friendly . I would highly recommend this tour . The guide was very knowledgeable on history and spoke English very well . He also had a wonderful sense of humor. As they say first impressions mean everything ! This impression was a good start to the first time experience to Cambodia .

Mon and the Silk Island experience was outstanding. From our greeting at the ferry - Mon was “on fire”. We enjoyed the small group and the insights Mon shared as a local resident. The markets, the Silk factory and the local food were terrific - even had time for a beer. The format and bicycle enabled us to enjoy the local tempo yet keep moving. Excellent way to spend a morning with Mon. Go well! Ed & Barb

A unique experience in Phnom Penh, which gets you outside and beyond the touristic spots in the center of the city. It is a full, busy, active half-day experience, with lots of bike riding through farmlands of Silk Island, and multiple stops. Our guide, Presey, was exceptional!

An experience that leaves you feeling sombre and deeply saddened, but also gives you a powerful insight into the scale and brutality of the Khmer Rouge genocide. Visiting both sites together makes the experience particularly meaningful: Tuol Sleng (S-21) provides a harrowing insight into the machinery of imprisonment, interrogation and torture (best visited first), while the Killing Fields at Choeung Ek shows the horrifying fate of many of those who passed through it. Together, they put the human cost of Cambodia's history into stark perspective.Transport between the sites is easily arranged using Grab, making it straightforward to visit independently rather than as part of a tour. If you do go independently, I would strongly recommend hiring the audio guides. They are exceptionally clear, informative and easy to follow, with numbered stops corresponding to the locations around each site. Being able to pause and move at your own pace also gives you some space to take in what you are seeing. A guide, however, can offer a more personal perspective and provide additional historical context that you won't necessarily get from the audio guide.Allow plenty of time rather than trying to rush through both locations. This isn't really an attraction to be ticked off a sightseeing list; it is an experience that benefits from being approached slowly and respectfully. Some of the material is understandably difficult to hear and see, and the atmosphere at both sites is very sombre.Although August can be hot and humid, going early in the morning is worthwhile, both to avoid the worst of the heat and to experience the sites before they become busy. Take water, wear comfortable footwear and be prepared for the visit to be emotionally draining.Perhaps the most important reason to visit is that the experience isn't simply about confronting Cambodia's darkest period. Seeing the evidence of what happened, while also seeing how Cambodia has rebuilt itself, provides a striking reminder of the resilience of people and the importance of remembering what happened. You leave feeling sombre, but also with a greater appreciation for Cambodia's present and its hopes for the future.

Great tour and history, showed every part of cambodias history and even met with last survivor that was in the camp

Wow just wow! Sina’s tour is by far the best part of my Cambodia excursion! Sina was extremely and very knowledgeable as he guided us through temples, palaces and even the killing fields! Further, I saw so many people who did a prior tour with Sina and they were smiling were smiling from ear to ear because they knew we were in great hands! Thank you Sina for an incredible tour!

Sina was an amazing guide the whole day. From the hotel pick up, to the constant offering of beverages such as ice cold water and soft drinks. Tour was very organise and described very well. As well offering time for photos along the way. It was also a great way to finish in the central market. Overall I would highly recommend this tour if you are wanting to explore Phnom Penh and it’s deep rich and tragic past aswell as the beautiful architecture of the place and other places.

Without a doubt, this was one of the highlights of my trip to Cambodia. If you're visiting Phnom Penh and want an authentic experience, book this tour! You won't regret it!Our guide, Bong Chea, was amazing. He was funny, energetic, and made everyone feel comfortable from the very beginning. His passion for Cambodian food and culture really showed throughout the entire evening. He didn't just take us to incredible local restaurants he explained the history behind the dishes, shared stories about everyday life in Cambodia, and even taught us some Khmer along the way. Thanks to him, I left knowing a few useful phrases and with a much deeper appreciation for the local culture.The food was outstanding. Every stop was a hidden gem that I never would have found on my own. Riding through Phnom Penh by tuk-tuk at night added to the adventure, and every restaurant served delicious, authentic Khmer food. The portions were generous, and by the end of the tour I was completely full and smiling.What made this experience truly special was Bong Chea. His sense of humor kept everyone laughing, his knowledge made every stop interesting, and his genuine kindness made the tour feel like we were exploring the city with a friend instead of just following a guide.Thank you, Bong Chea, for an unforgettable evening and for sharing your beautiful culture with us. This wasn't just an amazing food tour it was one of the best travel experiences I've ever had. I highly recommend Lost Plate Phnom Penh Food Tours to anyone visiting Cambodia. Five stars isn't enough!
