It's an early start today as we pick you up from your accommodation at 7am (please note accommodation is not included the night before the tour but we can help to book this for you, please let us know in advance).

From 1976 to 1979, the Khmer Rouge ruled Cambodia with their own form of ultra-Marxism, resulting in the deaths of millions and destruction of the country that can still be felt today. Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (S-21), was once a high school and was converted into a detention and torture center during the Khmer Rouge regime.
