    Frequently Asked Questions

    Quick answers to the most common questions about visiting Cambodia in 2026

    The best time to visit Cambodia is during the dry season from November to February when temperatures are cooler (25-30°C) and rainfall is minimal. This is peak tourist season, especially around Angkor Wat. The shoulder months of March-April are hotter but less crowded. The wet season (May-October) brings afternoon rains but offers lush landscapes, fewer tourists, and lower prices.
