Walking
If you're starting from the Royal Palace, head southeast towards the riverfront. Once you reach the river, turn left (east) and walk along the Riverside Path. This scenic walkway runs parallel to the Mekong River and is filled with local vendors and cafes. Continue walking along the path until you reach the intersection with Street 106. The Riverside Path will offer stunning views of the river and the city.
Tuk-tuk
To reach the Riverside Path by tuk-tuk, simply ask your driver to take you to 'Riverside Path' or 'Sisowath Quay'. You can catch a tuk-tuk from any popular tourist area like the Central Market or Wat Phnom. Once you're on board, the driver should take you along Norodom Boulevard south towards the river, where you'll see the Riverside Path. It’s a short ride, usually around 10-15 minutes depending on traffic.
Bicycle
If you're feeling adventurous and would like to cycle, you can rent a bicycle from one of the local shops. Start at the Central Market and head west on Street 63. Once you reach the river, turn left and follow the Riverside Path. This route is flat and easy to navigate, and you will be able to enjoy the sights along the river as you ride.
Motorbike Taxi
For a quicker option, you can take a motorbike taxi. Stand by the roadside and look for a driver, or use a ride-hailing app like Grab. Tell the driver 'Riverside Path' or show them your destination on a map. The ride should take about 10 minutes, depending on traffic, and will drop you off right near the path.
