    Quick Planning Tips

    📅 Book Ahead for Peak Season

    November to February is busiest. Reserve Angkor Wat sunrise tours and popular hotels 2-4 weeks ahead.

    💵 Bring Clean USD Bills

    New, unwrinkled US dollars are preferred. Damaged bills may be rejected. ATMs dispense USD.

    🏥 Get Travel Insurance

    Medical evacuation coverage is essential. Cambodia's best hospitals are in Phnom Penh.

    📱 Get a Local SIM

    Buy a Cellcard or Smart SIM at the airport for $2-5. Data is cheap and 4G coverage is good.

    👗 Pack Light Layers

    Temples require covered shoulders and knees. Lightweight, breathable fabrics work best.

    🛂 Check Visa Requirements

    Most nationalities can get an e-visa online or visa on arrival. Apply at least 3 days before travel.
