A must-do in PP but not uplifting. Learning about the events of the civil war that waged in this country is crucial. Audio tour was well narrated and there were a good number of shaded benches around… Full review by teresacE7615MH

When we stayed near the palace we were offered a simular trip in a SUV for $30 from the hotel reception staff but we were in a central location. The airport is 15km from killing fields and a further 11km to S21, considering stop offs, aircon between places, someone who knows the area, can show you any worthwhile sights on route and returning to the airport sounds like a stress free afternoon. You could try and get it a little cheaper if you wanted but its not excessive, just no higher! Remember to only purchase tickets from the museums no other place, one driver tried to convince us that we had to get tickets before hand from a random travel agency, very cheeky!
