Cambodia Tours 2026 & 2027

Since Cambodia experiences warm and humid weather all year round, the best time to visit is during the dry season, from November to April, when the weather is cooler and sunnier. However, this period also marks the peak tourist season, so some travelers prefer the rainy season from May to October, which has fewer visitors and allows for scenic views of the countryside.

If this is your first time visiting Cambodia and you’re particularly interested in Angkor Wat, we recommend spending 3-5 days to focus on the must-see temples of the Angkor Wat Small Circuit, Grand Circuit, and Outer Circuit in Siem Reap.

If you seek an in-depth Cambodia tour for a richer experience of the country’s modern history and local lifestyle, consider extending your journey to 7-10 days, covering the dynamic capital, Phnom Penh, the relaxed coastal city of Kep, and the hidden Angkor relics in Kampong Thom and Takeo.

For beach lovers, you can also travel further to Koh Rong Island for diving and to taste delicious seafood, or embark on a two-week immersive Southeast Asia tour that includes Thailand, the Philippines, or Malaysia.

All of the above itineraries can be achieved with our private Cambodia tours. Our specialists’ dedicated efforts ensure your ideas are fully realized.

Yes, most foreign travelers need a visa, except travelers from some ASEAN countries like Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam. You can apply for an e-visa online easily, which grants entry to Cambodia for up to 30 days. Alternatively, tourists can get a visa on arrival at the airport for USD 30 per person.

Siem Reap International Airport (REP) and Phnom Penh International Airport (PNH) are Cambodia’s main airports. Regular flights connect from Thailand, China, Vietnam, and Laos. Additionally, Cambodia has open borders with Thailand, Vietnam, and Laos, allowing travelers to use international buses from these countries.

The most efficient way to travel within Cambodia is by air between Siem Reap, Phnom Penh, and Sihanoukville. The most affordable choice is taking a long-distance bus, offering scenic views of the countryside during the journey. For short trips, tuk-tuks are popular, with prices generally ranging from USD 1 to USD 5 based on the distance. It’s also recommended to travel with us by private car, which will help you avoid the heat and dust from riding in an open-air tuk-tuk and spare you the hassle of haggling with the driver.

Yes, major tourist cities like Siem Reap and Phnom Penh are very safe. The malignant incident you may see online mainly focuses on illegal activities and undocumented workers, with minimal risk to regular tourists. However, certain areas like Sihanoukville can have security issues, including drive-by robberies and thefts. To stay safe, avoid walking alone in isolated or dark areas at night, and refrain from using your phone while on the street or in a tuk-tuk.

While the official currency is the Riel (KHR), the US dollar is commonly accepted at hotels, restaurants, shops, and tourist sites. Riel is primarily used for small transactions, like getting change in stores and eateries. Although the exchange rate fluctuates daily, it typically stays around 1 USD to 4,000 KHR across the country.

Tipping in Cambodia is voluntary but appreciated when you are pleased with the service. In local restaurants, a 10% tip on the total bill is common, though you can tip more for exceptional service. When taking a guided tour, we suggest tipping your guide about USD 5 per person per day and your driver about half that amount. Surely, it all depends on your satisfaction.
