Full description

Gain profound insight into modern Cambodian history on an essential private half-day tour to the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (S-21) and the Choeung Ek Genocidal Center (The Killing Fields). This confronting yet deeply educational experience provides an authentic space to reflect on the devastating impact and legacy of the Khmer Rouge regime.

Guided by an expert local host, you’ll first visit Tuol Sleng, a former secondary school converted into a high-security interrogation and detention facility during the late 1970s. Walk through preserved classrooms and photo galleries that honor the thousands who passed through its gates. Next, travel just outside Phnom Penh along the same historical route to Choeung Ek, a former orchard turned execution site. Today, it stands as a peaceful memorial surrounding a central Buddhist stupa housing exhumed relics. Conclude your tour with private air-conditioned transport and respectful storytelling tailored to your group's pace.

Itinerary

Toul Sleng S21 Prison-genocidal Museum. We go to pick up you at the lobby of your hotel and transfer to S21 prison. We come face to face with the horrific crimes of the Khmer Rouge. Tuol Sleng was a former high school that the Khmer Rouge turned into a centre for interrogation, torture and death. Today it is a museum of torture and serves to remind visitors of the terrible atrocities that came to pass in Cambodia. 17,000 people passed through the gates of this prison and only seven lived to tell the tale.

Choeng Ek Killing Field. We travel out of town to the Killing Fields of Choeng Ek. Prisoners from Tuol Sleng followed this same route to their fate. An old Chinese cemetery, Choeng Ek was turned into an extermination camp for political prisoners. The remains of 8985 people were exhumed from mass graves and are kept in a memorial stupa here. Despite the horrors of the past, it is a peaceful place to go and a tranquil spot to reflect on the tragic events that engulfed Cambodia and its people. Return to your hotel and drop off.
