Sail the Chaktomuk River, where the Mekong, Tonle Sap and Bassac meet, on an evening dinner cruise past the illuminated Royal Palace and National Museum, with a Khmer set menu on board. As day turns to evening in Phnom Penh, board a dinner cruise on the Chaktomuk River, the confluence where the Mekong, Tonle Sap and Bassac rivers meet. The boat sets sail around 7pm for a 1.5 hour cruise past the illuminated Phnom Penh skyline, including the Royal Palace, official residence of the King and Queen of Cambodia since 1866, and the National Museum. A Khmer set menu is served on board as the city drifts by. It's a different, waterborne perspective on Phnom Penh, and one of the more relaxed ways to end a day of sightseeing. Private transfer to and from the pier is included, with dinner and the cruise shared alongside other guests on board.
Prices are per person when two book together; a solo traveller pays $60.
Larger groups pay less per person.

The cruise was really nice and the weather was perfect. It wasn't as busy the only negative was in being the first to board the ship, we expected to be served first and the food option was limited. We were almost forgot and had to call someone to place an order. overall the driver was nice and pointed out some highlights along the way.
