Dos & Don'ts in Cambodia Paperback – January 1, 2005

I am prepping for a two week trip through Cambodia and reading literally any and everything I can find about the culture, people, experiences etc. I really enjoyed Dos & Don'ts In Cambodia. I read it start to finish on two domestic flights recently and had check myself - laughing aloud on a crowded plane can draw some stares. There is some valuable information for sure in this book about daily stuff - traffic, choosing a place to eat, Khmer social taboos and the like. Very glad I got this and I will keep it on my Kindle to refer to during my travels.

Having finished this little gem of a book, I wanted to hop on the next plane to Phnom Penh! It was light-hearted and upbeat but thoroughly comprehensive, covering everything from history to festivals to safety tips to every imaginable social situation. The organization of information was logical and systematic, which made it easy to take it all in. The illustrations were fun too. The message I took from the book was that if you understand the people and the culture, you'll have a wonderful experience in Cambodia!

Really awful book written by a male chauvinist (or worse). Gives suggestions like not propositioning children for sex because they've cracked down on that nowadays. If I could give it less than 1 star I would!

Easy read and delightfully entertaining!

Dr Hill's light heartedness masks a serious attempt to provide the new traveller to Cambodia a safe and enjoyable experience. His advice has obviously come from many years of personal experience and careful observation. It is very valuable and much appreciated.A 'must read' for the new traveller to Cambodia.
