Travel Tips for Sightseeing Tours in Cambodia
- Explore Central Market on a food tour with a local. This famous Phnom Penh sight can be overwhelming if you are not accustomed to bustling Asian markets, and it is easy to get lost. Go with a local guide who can show you all the best stalls and spots.
- Be respectful at Angkor Wat and other Buddhist and Hindu temples across Cambodia. Many Cambodian sightseeing tours include religious temples and monuments, so remember to cover your shoulders and knees before entering.
- Do not try to get near or feed the monkeys at Angkor Wat. They might be one of the highlights of this ancient sight, but they also have a penchant for stealing valuables, so keep a safe distance.
- Book your tickets for the famous temples in advance. It is often more expensive at the gate, and sometimes, they may have already reached capacity for the day.
- Avoid traveling during the monsoon season, September and October. As most of Cambodia's sightseeing attractions are outdoors, you won’t be able to appreciate them during the rainy months entirely.
