Make Your Next Vacation Your Best Vacation!®

Phnom Penh means different things to different people. On AmaWaterways Riches of the Mekong, Phnom Penh means the hustle and bustle of a big city, great food and a reminders of the Vietnam war.  This post is one in a series about our river cruise trip with AmaWaterways.  Our last post, All aboard discussed our trip from Siem Reap and our first day on the ship, the AmaDara.

After a bit of a drive from Siem Reap we reach our destination - the AmaWaterways AmaDara.  As noted in the title, this is one of a series of blog posts.  To catch up, read our last two posts from Siem Reap. First on Anchor Wat and next on Khmer Temples.  All posts describe the Riches of the Mekong river cruise from AmaWaterways.

The Mekong River basin is central to understanding the Khmer temples of the ancient Khmer Empire.  This post is the fourth in our series about our AmaWaterways Riches of the Mekong trip.  Yesterday we explored Angkor Wat. We are still in Siem Reap and today we visit several other temples from the ancient Khmer Empire.

In this post, we describe our first full day in Siem Reap - home of the Angkor Wat temple.  See our previous posts from this trip: about Hanoi  and Ha Long Bay

We went to Ha Long Bay on our second full day of our Riches of the Mekong trip.  Catch up on our first day's blog post, Hanoi: orderly Chaos.

This post is all about Hanoi and kicks off our trip report on AmaWaterways Riches of the Mekong trip.

This is our third full day in Tokyo - what to do in Tokyo today?  We finally ran into a little snag last night at dinner which you can read about  below. In the mean time, to catch up, see our posts (in reverse chronological order) Meiji Jingu Shrine and Cherry Blossoms in Tokyo and 3 movies, 2 meals and some sleep – how long to get to Japan.

The Meiji Jingu Shrine is a major attraction in Tokyo and we explored it on our second day in Japan.  We were graced with another warm sunny day.  Read about our first full day in Tokyo at our post entitled Cherry Blossoms in Tokyo.

How long does it take to get to Japan?  You can answer in terms of time or activities.
