All about Cambodia

When to Visit

The best time to visit Cambodia is during the dry season (November to April) when temperatures are comfortable, and rainfall is minimal. The peak tourist months are December and January, offering pleasant weather, though expect larger crowds at popular sites like Angkor Wat. The wet season (May to October) sees fewer tourists and lush green landscapes but comes with frequent rain showers. If you prefer fewer crowds and don’t mind occasional rain, visiting during the early wet season can be rewarding, with cooler weather and vibrant scenery.

Getting Around

Getting around Cambodia is relatively easy, with various transportation options available. Tuk-tuks are a fun and affordable way to explore cities and towns. For longer distances, buses and minivans connect major cities, while domestic flights are available between Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, and Sihanoukville. Renting a bicycle or motorbike is a popular option for exploring Angkor’s temples or countryside areas. Riverboats also operate on the Mekong River, providing a scenic travel experience between Phnom Penh and other cities.

Traveler Tips

Currency: Cambodia uses the Cambodian Riel (KHR), but US dollars are widely accepted, especially for larger transactions. Language: Khmer is the official language, but English is commonly spoken in tourist areas. Local Cuisine: Don’t miss trying amok, a traditional Cambodian curry, and nom banh chok, a popular noodle dish. Stay Hydrated: The climate can be hot and humid, so always carry water with you. Respect: When visiting temples, wear modest clothing covering your shoulders and knees. Remove your shoes before entering temple areas.
