The three-wheel bicycle rickshaw has been used to transport people and goods since French colonial times. We start from the hotel down to the Independence Monument, an impressive structure that sits at the centre of a roundabout. Dating back to 1958, it was created to mark the country’s independence from France in 1953. Next, visit to the Silver Pagoda and adjacent Royal Palace. Home to Cambodia’s official royal residence, the grounds are awash with regal structures, intimate temples, collections of gifts from foreign leaders and murals that paint a picture of the country’s past. We also stop at Wat Phnom, an ancient hilltop temple and compact park that marks the official center of the city.

Please note: Guests will have to sign a disclaimer form before taking part in the cyclo activity. This will be provided by the guide in Phnom Penh. Visitors to the National Museums are required to keep their knees and shoulders covered.

A.N.D, a fair-trade brand that collaborates with artisans, some with disabilities, who create jewellery, clothes and accessories.
