Places to put on your map

Siem Reap is a base for Angkor, while Phnom Penh offers a separate city and history stay. Choose the places you most want to understand, not just photograph. A temple itinerary benefits from pauses rather than attempting every site in a single long day.

Build a realistic route

For a week, combine Siem Reap and Phnom Penh with a realistic transfer day. With more time, consider a slower regional extension after checking current advice. If arriving overland from Thailand or Vietnam, verify the border crossing and entry requirements for your nationality.

Getting around and arriving

Confirm your arrival pickup and keep the hotel address offline. Check the official ticket and access rules for Angkor before choosing a tour. For longer road transfers, compare departure point, arrival point and luggage arrangements rather than selecting only on advertised journey time.

Timing, local habits and useful details

The national currency is the Cambodian riel; clarify the currency of every quoted price and how change will be returned. Plan outdoor visits around the local forecast and site rules. Keep both Cambodia and any neighbouring-country legs in your eSIM coverage check.
