Oudong was the royal capital between 1618 and 1866 before the capital was moved to Phnom Penh, several temples and stupas cover three hills. These huge stupas can be seen from miles away and contain the remains of several Khmer kings including King Monivong (1927-1941) and King Ang Duong (1845-1859). The walk up the hill over 500 steps provides an excellent exercise especially the view countryside view. These hills were also the site of some of the Khmer Rouge’s most prolonged resistance against the Vietnamese army in 1979 and a memorial to those murdered by the Khmer Rouge was built on this place.

We did two day tours with About Cambodia. One was to Oudong mountain and nearby sites, along with the national museum. The other was of sites within Phnom Penh. Mr Sophy was our guide and he was excellent. Very knowledgeable and a good communicator. The drivers and vehicles were first rate. I would gladly use About Cambodia’s services again, especially recommend Mr. Sophy.
An excellent day away from the crowds of Phnom Penh. Beautiful temples and ruins. Felt very safe in n the hands of our driver, Ned. Our guide Silong (sorry if spelling is way off) was very attentive to our comforts, particularly during the 509 step climb, and very knowledgeable about Cambodian history, market foods (definitely try the frogs!) and customs. Great tour!
It was a great day out and our guide, Tokk, was very knowledgeable and quite helpful. I highly recommend The Cafe where they took us for lunch was nice with good food.
We had an excellent guide, Mr. Tokk, and a very good driver. Lots of interesting information including background issues. We had a great day and can highly recommend the tour.
Very informative, excellent guide and excellent driver. Great! Picked up on time, individual support.
Our tourguide speaks very good English and he is very fluent. It is easy and interesting to listing to him. He was very kind with us always asking if we were good or not. The driver was perfect too and the lunch break was very pleasant. The restaurant was very beautiful and the meals was delicious. The length of the visit were good too.

Tokk was incredible! He personalized our tour completely and gave in-depth explanations. He had a great deal of knowledge, which he shared expertly. Highly recommended
Silong and Nora were a great combo for us. They were really funny, informative and well versed in the history of Cambodia. We had a great tour and excursion throughout the day and were able to experience this without many tourists so it felt like we had the whole day for us. Overall 10/10
Mr. Tokk was a phenomenal tour guide! We really enjoyed visiting the temples. They were beautiful. Mr. Tokk is very knowledgeable about all periods in Cambodian history and we left the tour with a deep understanding of Cambodian history and culture. 10/10!!
