This cruise not only tantalizes your taste buds but also offers a unique perspective of Phnom Penh’s stunning beauty, leaving you with unforgettable memories.
Rooftop skybar adds another layer of allure, with venues like Celeste Revolving Skybar, one of the the highest rooftop bars in Phnom Penh, but also the world’s first revolving skybar, where you can sip on creative cocktails and enjoy a fusion menu, all while gazing over the twinkling city below as day turns to night.
The stylish and dual level terrace mixes dining tables and comfy lounge spots, and since it is revolving, you are guaranteed amazing and panoramic 360° views over Phnom Penh, including the Mekong River, the Vattanac Tower and the Independence Monument.
Dining can involve interactive experiences, such as cooking classes that allow guests to engage with local cuisine hands-on. Many restaurants feature cultural performances that enhance the dining experience, offering a feast for the senses beyond just food.
