Every trip is private and tailor-made. There are no fixed departure dates: you tell us the weeks that suit you, and a consultant based in the region builds the route, picks the hotels and adjusts the pace until it fits. Nothing is shared with other travelers. Booking four to six months ahead gives the best choice of hotels, guides and internal flights, though we do arrange trips at shorter notice. Get a free quote.
Most travelers need a tourist visa. You can apply online for an e-visa at evisa.gov.kh before you travel, or buy a visa on arrival at major airports and border crossings. The tourist visa currently costs 30 USD, allows a 30-day stay and can be extended once for a further month. E-visas are accepted only at certain checkpoints, so confirm your entry point first. Rules change, so check your own passport before booking flights. See our guide on how to get to Cambodia.
Travelers arriving in Cambodia by air must complete the free Cambodia e-Arrival Card online at arrival.gov.kh within seven days before arrival, whether or not they already hold a visa. It is a separate requirement and does not replace the visa. Keep the QR code to show at immigration. If you arrive overland, ask your consultant about the current requirement.
Yes. Cambodia uses two currencies: the riel is official, but US dollars are used for most tourist prices. Bring clean, undamaged notes, because torn or worn bills are often refused. Change under one dollar is given in riel, and most ATMs dispense US dollars, so there is no need to exchange money before you arrive. Tipping is appreciated but not expected. See our Cambodia currency guide.
Quoted prices are per person, based on four travelers in standard hotels, and exclude international flights. They cover accommodation, private transport, an English-speaking guide, the listed activities and domestic flights where needed. Your final price depends on dates, hotel category, group size and activities, and the dry season and the end of the year are the busiest periods. Request a free quote with your dates and group size.
One full day covers Angkor Wat, the Bayon and Ta Prohm. Two or three days is better if you want outlying temples such as Banteay Srei or Beng Mealea and to visit at the quietest hours, early morning and late afternoon. Passes are sold for one, three or seven days, at US$37, US$62 and US$72 in 2026, and we advise on the right length once your itinerary is set. Shoulders and knees must be covered at the temples. Read our Angkor Wat guide.
November to April is the dry season, with mild weather, clear skies and little rain. Siem Reap is best from December to February, though these are also the busiest months, and March to May gets hot. The rainy season from May to October brings short afternoon showers, green countryside and fewer visitors at Angkor, and it is the only time the boat between Battambang and Siem Reap runs. The eastern provinces are hard to reach from June to mid-October. See our best time to visit Cambodia guide.
Five days covers Siem Reap and Phnom Penh at a reasonable pace. Seven to ten days lets you add the Tonle Sap lake, Kampong Thom or Battambang, or a few nights on the coast at Sihanoukville and Koh Rong. Two weeks is what you need for the eastern provinces of Kratie, Mondulkiri and Ratanakiri, which are far from the main circuit and hold most of the country’s forest and wildlife.
