Introducing Cambodia

Centuries of heritage, unbelievable natural beauty, and friendly locals make this welcoming destination a premier stop for all travel enthusiasts.

When is the best time to visit?
There’s no bad time of year to visit Cambodia, but the main tourist season happens when temperatures are coolest from November through February. To avoid some of the crowds, visit towards the end of the country’s dry season, which extends all the way into May. 

Where to go in Cambodia?
For an iconic Cambodian experience, tour the temples of the ancient city of Angkor. Additionally, there are many undiscovered off-the-beaten-path gems, like the untouched island beaches of Koh Rong and Koh Rong Samloem, the up and coming bustling city of Phnom Penh, and the 216 stone faces carved at Angkor Thom. 

How many days do I need?
Budget at least 6 days in Cambodia to explore the temples and also get to know the vibrant community.

We are so grateful for the wonderful trip to Cambodia, and the joy and family connection it created for us. Steve in Cambodia was great to work with and we had a chance to connect during our time in Siem Reap!

The guides, drivers, hotels & staff, and experiences were all fantastic. Horn (Siem Reap) and Lenh (Phnom Penh) shared much of their own personal life experiences beyond their rich knowledge of their country/regions/cities, which created deep personal connections we couldn’t have created if we’d planned and executed our trip DIY. And Wanna Rith in PP, who led us in our street food dining tour, is a treasure!! He was hilarious to hang out with. Our time in the jungles of the Cardamom Mountains at the Cardamom Tented Camp was also very special with wonderful staff taking care of us and creating rich memories.

We’ll be thrilled to recommend our friends to work with KimKim and Travel Asia a la Carte to arrange travel in Cambodia!

Hotel Review
Sokkhak Boutique Resort
Siem Reap City

Wonderful boutique hotel excellently managed and staffed, and conveniently located between Angkor and downtown Siem Reap, meaning it was serene and quiet. The staff were fantastic and the service they provided was amazing, interior and exterior decor is beautiful and the rooms are well appointed. And one of the most comfortable beds I’ve ever slept in! The dining room and the menu were exceptional. Looking forward to our next stay!
