- Morning guys, eight o'clock in the morning,
we're in Cambodia, just left Siem Reap airport,
and we're in a rickshaw.
My first time here, this already feels
a bit like Myanmar to me.
Robyn's been here before, second time here.
- First time I ever went sort of travelling
was here, in Siem Reap.
I'll never forget it.
And the difference between now and then
is when I went back then it was dark
and you couldn't see a thing,
so now I can actually see where I'm going.
- Day one of our trip, eight o'clock in the morning,
just arrived and yeah, we're off to our hotel now.
But this is our little rickshaw with our luggage.
(rumbling traffic)
I don't know how he's managed to fit
all the luggage on, but they manage.
This should be fun.
Get to our hotel, relax for a week,
show you some stuff, beautiful views,
love the smell, smells very much like Myanmar to me.
- It's very similar to Myanmar.
- Same kind of smell.
- [Robyn] Same feeling.
- Same feeling.
You got some money?
- Yeah.
- [Brad] Woo hoo.
- Okay good, thank you.
- We got cash now, bye bye.
Thank you Raan.
(mumbles)
Thank you.
This guys a legend.
$200 U.S. each.
So I've learned that the ATM machines here
will give you both U.S. dollars and riel,
the local currency.
- Yeah, and they take U.S. dollars
and give you change in riel, most likely.
- Yeah.
- And like, if you think about it, we've drawn that but like
just for the three-day fee it's $37 to get to the temple.
- Yeah.
- You get a one, three and seven day option to the temples.
Reminds me of Myanmar. - Look, there's a little cafe
look, little, little cafe.
(engine ticking over)
- Raan has muscles,
say hello.
- Say hello? - Hello.
- Hello! - It's for my family.
- Yeah. (laughs) - Thank you man.
- Thank you, yeah.
- Have a nice day. - Yeah, yeah, have a nice day.
- Thank you.
- [Raan] And you.
- American breakfast here in Cambodia.
(banging)
Hello Cambodia.
- [Robyn] They've got slops!
Flops. - This is our room guys.
- [Robyn] What do you call them in Oz?
- Thongs. - Thongs, look at them!
- They're called tho, look at the shower, look!
No that's rad, check that out, look.
(laughs)
That's a rad shower.
- [Robyn] It's like everything's like,
kind of wood and antique, and then you get this like,
sci-fi shower.
(water running)
- [Brad] It works.
Robs, I'm very impressed.
- [Robyn] You haven't even looked
at our slops, flops, thongs.
- [Brad] Thongs, they're called thongs mate.
- [Robyn] Well we call them something different
in South Africa.
- This is our room here in Cambodia.
Just checked in, and the room looks stunning,
the bed looks really nice.
And I'll just quickly spin you around,
nice and spacious, old wood antique furniture,
and our balcony, two chairs facing out
into the world of Cambodia right there.
They're our views here from our room.
We're both very tired, we've been up since 3:00 a.m.
this morning, 2:00 a.m. actually.
Current views, very nice.
(gentle guitar music)
Friends, we've just bought our temple passes
here in Cambodia, Siem Reap.
We have a three-day temple pass,
$62 U.S. per person.
We have our little photographs taken, look,
look at Rob's.
- What do you think guys?
- Yeah, yeah, it's pretty er--
- Average. (laughs)
- Anticlimaxing on mine.
Yours is perfectly fine, you look legit.
Oh mate you're fine, yeah,
she always looks good
in every photo. - I wish, no, that's not true,
- [Brad] That's always true.
- [Robyn] But I wish I always looked this relaxed.
- Yeah, so $62, paid in U.S. dollars, cash.
So there are plenty of ATM machines around here
you can use to get cash out.
And the ATM machines usually dispense both U.S. dollars
and riels, but we just paid U.S. dollars.
Look how many ATM machines there are here.
We just asked the driver to take us to the place
to buy the temple pass, and he's just dropped us off here,
he's actually waiting over there, really amazing guy.
But you can get like, you can get a one-day pass, $37 U.S.
per person, or a seven-day pass, $72 U.S. per person.
So we'll be all templed out over the next three days.
All right, let's get some food hon.
- (mumbles) Yep.
- Let's get some food.
- Cool.
- See you soon, we're hungry, really hungry.
(gentle guitar music)
All right, so we've just sat down at our table
here at Neary Khmer.
We told our driver, actually asked our driver
if he could take us to a really traditional
Cambodian restaurant, and he's brought us here.
I remember reading this on Trip Advisor,
had like 610 reviews, four and a half star,
this is it here, screen grab that.
So we actually got some beer right here,
'cause we like celebrating the fact
that we're training Fitness Street For a month.
We've ordered this, now I wanna show you the food.
So, traditional mango salad, I've read that
that's something to try here in Cambodia,
is the mango salad.
Everything's in U.S. dollars which I think is pretty funny,
I'm not used to seeing everything in U.S. dollars.
And then Robyn Whale
has the green curry,
I've ordered the traditional amok fish,
I've read that that's something to try in Cambodia,
it's a traditional dish.
And Robsy has the green curry,
she's still attached to Thailand, aren't you Robs?
- [Robyn] I am.
- That's the mango salad right there,
apparently it's something to try in Cambodia,
so we've got it, looks really delicious.
And then we have spring rolls right here
which look absolutely amazing.
Our mains have just arrived
in these cool little coconut shells.
Oo, what is that?
- [Robyn] It's the traditional - Oh it's green curry.
- [Robyn] Yeah, traditional green curry.
- [Brad] Stir it up.
- [Robyn] Okay in a minute.
- [Brad] In a minute?
- [Robyn] I'm being inspired to take photos next.
- And I've got the traditional dish
which is the amok fish I think, this is what it looks like.
Three, two, one, oh, look at that.
Ah man, that looks delicious.
She's going in for the kill,
(laughing)
she's going in for the kill, green curry,
is it different from a Thai green curry?
It doesn't look like a green curry though.
- Oh my gosh.
- [Brad] Terrible?
- No man, this is so good.
- [Brad] You sure it's a green curry?
- Oh my gosh, this is so good.
(gentle guitar music)
- [Brad] Okay Robs, where are we off to?
Hey Raan! - [Raan] Hi!
- [Brad] How are you?
- Yeah, good yeah. - [Robyn] We're going to the
night market. - Thanks for waiting for us.
- (laughs) No problem.
- [Brad] Hey Robs, how was dinner?
- Ah, so good.
We're going to the night market now.
- [Brad] Yeah.
- I have to go and buy some trousers
for the temples tomorrow.
- [Brad] All right, let's go.
(gentle guitar music)
- Day one here at Cambodia, Siem Reap,
and it's pretty busy, it's like peak hour traffic,
there's tuk-tuks everywhere,
but the air is just really nice,
it actually feels like Myanmar.
- It's nice, not as humid.
- Not as humid, but it does feel
like we're back in Myanmar though.
- Yeah no, but not as humid as Phuket,
it was so humid there, yeah. - Oh definitely not as humid
as Phuket.
Ah, just really nice, really nice nights,
we're getting dropped off now to buy some long pants
for this one for the temples tomorrow
and the day after, so.
- [Raan] There.
- [Brad] Here we are, thank you my friend.
- [Robyn] Thank you.
- Sure, the market, night market, right?
- [Robyn] Yeah.
- Night market here.
- [Brad] Oh yeah.
night market. - Night market.
- And this side is the Pub Street.
- [Robyn] Oh pub street, yeah. - Pub Street, yep.
- [Robyn] Okay.
- [Brad] Ah, thank you.
- Yeah, thank you.
- [Brad] Thank you my friend.
- Okay so guys, we are in the area,
the Pub Street area, so look behind me,
Pub Street's just down there, where the green lights are.
Then the night market is just beyond that,
and we're going towards the night market.
We probably won't have enough time to do Pub Street,
but we'll do that because I wanna show Brad
a Cambodian barbecue, which is a lot of fun,
but yeah, we'll probably do that
in the next couple of nights.
- [Brad] Let's go.
(gentle guitar music)
(chopping)
- [Brad] Cheers.
