What first-timers get wrong in Siem Reap
The Angkor pass is never sold at the temples and never by your tuk-tuk driver: buy it at the official ticket centre. A pass bought after five is valid from the following day and lets you in for that evening's sunset free. Shoulders and knees must be covered for Angkor Wat's upper level. Cambodia prices in US dollars, with riel appearing only as change.
What's actually worth your time in Siem Reap
The Angkor pass costs US$37 for one day, US$62 for three and US$72 for seven, sold only at the official centre on Road 60 with your photograph taken there. Angkor Wat and Bayon justify it outright. Ta Prohm's tree roots are heavily propped and permanently crowded. Banteay Srei, an hour north, carries the finest carving of the lot and far thinner queues.
Siem Reap with kids, realistically
Temple days with children need a five o'clock start and a long midday break, because the sandstone becomes punishing by ten. Angkor Wat's upper Bakan level has near-vertical stairs and a minimum age, while Bayon and Ta Prohm suit small legs far better. Tuk-tuks are open-sided with no belts. Phare's circus and the Tonle Sap floating villages work from about six upward.
When the weather turns in Siem Reap
Rainy season spans May to October, and the afternoon downpour is brief but total. Angkor National Museum, the Artisans Angkor silk workshops and Theam's Gallery all keep you dry. Temple moats look their best immediately afterwards, so wait it out rather than cancelling the day. Roads to outlying temples turn to mud, so confirm your driver still wants the Beng Mealea run.
What things cost in Siem Reap
A dollar stretches further here than anywhere nearby: a market noodle bowl is US$2 to 3, a restaurant main US$6 to 9, and Pub Street draught under a dollar in happy hour. A full day of tuk-tuk on the small circuit runs US$18 to 25, more for the grand circuit. Guesthouses start near US$15 and the three-day pass is US$62.
