Mekong & Tonle Sap Sunset Cruise
ចតុមុខ
A river cruise departing from the riverside pier that watches the sunset at the Chaktomuk, where the Mekong and Tonle Sap rivers meet, with views of the Royal Palace and city skyline.
Phnom Penh sits at the Chaktomuk ('Four-Armed Bay'), where the Mekong, Tonle Sap, and Bassac rivers converge. An evening boat trip is one of the best ways to experience the city. Cruises depart from the Sisowath Quay pier and travel along the Tonle Sap River to the confluence, where you can see the Royal Palace, the riverside district, Koh Pich, and fishing villages across the water. The view is most beautiful at sunset. You can charter a boat at the pier (priced by the hour) or book a cruise with a drink or dinner included, lasting about 1 to 2 hours. Agree on the price and duration before boarding, and check the weather during the rainy season.
