The small island of Koh Dach in the middle of the Mekong River preserves the rich traditions of authentic Cambodian culture: village women weave by hand delicate silks, while, just down the orchard lane, monks wearing brilliant saffron robes collect morning alms.
Early morning, we pick you up from your hotel and transfer you by private tuk-tuk to the local ferry near Chhroy Chanvar district. A short crossing across the Mekong River, we'll take to bikes on the rusty banks of Koh Dach to explore the island's authenticities.
You may have a chance to visit local schools, local pagodas, and the best spot to take photos of Phnom Penh City. We continue by tuk-tuk past historic Khmer temples and the local school before strolling around the lovely village. Lunch at a local restaurant on the bank of the Mekong River.
Depending on the recent rainfall, you can possibly expect the island's dirt roads to be bumpy. Finally, we cross the ferry back to Phnom Penh and transfer to your hotel. Later, relax at the pool at your hotel.
17:30 Hours, your guide will meet you at your hotel for an evening food tour. The tour starts with a happy hour drink at a local bar on a tiny urban strip, known as Bassac Lane. Fresh up drink and walk through the local hidden strip and pass through the local houses, stone carving, and local stalls where you're Tuk Tuk will be waiting.
We drive through the busy district to witness the wholesale Vegetable Market close to National Stadium. Amazing movements that sellers are preparing for the following day. A quick stop before moving to the next.
We drive through Russian Boulevard and continue to Koh Pic Island where you will rarely see any tourists and lots of locals enjoying their evening with families. Koh Pich, which in Khmer means “Diamond Island”, sits at the mouth of where the Tonle Bassac River’s journey begins towards Vietnam. The island, which was formed by alluvial silt deposits, didn’t even exist until about half a century ago.
