What our travelers think about their stay

A truly iconic place to visit when in Cambodia, Angkor Wat is the most famous temple of the vast ancient city of Angkor. It represents the earthly city of the gods, and its finely detailed architecture enables you to delve into the very heart of Buddhist history.

My suggestion

When the sun rises at Angkor Wat at around five in the morning, it lends the place a unique and timeless atmosphere.

The ancient city of Angkor is the largest religious monument still standing. It is an architectural wonder and an essential place to visit when touring Cambodia.

My suggestion

Go and admire the sunrise at Angkor Wat and the sunset over the Bayon.

It is the biggest religious building in the world, the most visited temple on the site of Angkor, and an absolute must-see during a trip to Cambodia.

My suggestion

To understand the subtle history of Angkor Wat, do the visit with a guide!

Angkor Wat is the largest temple at the Angkor site. It is without a shadow of a doubt one of the places that everyone visiting Cambodia really must go and see.

My suggestion

If you visit to watch the wonderful sunrise, try to keep apart from the thousands of tourists heading inside Angkor Wat and instead remain closer to the site entrance, next to the bridge.

An exceptional archaeological site inscribed as UNESCO World Heritage, and definitely not to be missed when visiting Cambodia.

My suggestion

Rise at dawn so that you can visit certain temples before the hordes of tourists arrive! If you can, buy your temple passes the day before: it will give you the chance to see the sunset and thus save you some time in the morning.

Cambodia: our articles for your vacation

Kratié: facing the Mekong, where Irrawaddy dolphins swim

Kratié is a provincial town with the quiet charm of the towns along the river. And what a river! The Mekong, the mythical Mekong. Walking along it, admiring the sunset, taking a boat ride, in contemplation... And then, riding a bike, looking for the freshwater dolphin, going across to be an explorer on the island of Koh Trong. Between action and contemplation, you just have to choose.

Tonlé Sap: socially and environmentally responsible tourism

Tonlé Sap is definitely one of the essential places to visit when exploring Cambodia. To really do it properly and get the most out of the experience, you need to meet the people who inhabit this floating world, head out with the fishermen in their dugout canoes, and discover the myriad different species of birds that inhabit the lake environment. And you can do all this safe in the knowledge that your presence here will actually be of benefit to the people of Tonlé Sap.

Kep and Kampot, Cambodia's last colonial towns

The town of Kep was the settlers' seaside resort during the time of French occupation, and Kampot was a famous coastal town. Today, these two cities keep their authentic charm and recall this period in Cambodia's history.

Activities often overlooked in Siem Reap

Don't just visit the temples of Angkor. It's really worth it to spend several days in Siem Reap, to enjoy its many activities and the beauty of its countrysides. Recommended for athletic people, and also for a family trip to Cambodia!
