Phnom Penh,Cambodia

Tom only had 10 days for a holiday in Southeast Asia and has never been to Cambodia. He wanted some sightseeing and some relaxation days and insisted to end his trip in the same city where it started so he can save on flight costs. With our plan, he was able to explore the Angkor temple complex and also explore Phnom Penh. Added to this were a few days of sunbathing on the island of Koh Rong, and flights in and out of Phnom Penh, and that made the perfect trip.
