Things to do in Siem Reap

We had a wonderful evening at the Apsara dance show in Siem Reap. The traditional performance was mesmerizing, with graceful dancers, beautiful costumes, and lovely live music that brought Khmer culture to life. ​The buffet dinner had a fantastic selection of delicious local and international dishes. Everything tasted fresh, and there were plenty of choices for everyone. ​A special mention goes to our tuk-tuk driver, who was polite, on time, and drove very safely. He picked us up right at our hotel lobby and was waiting patiently after the show to take us back. ​It was a smooth, well-organized experience with great entertainment and wonderful food.

To begin with, the driver was great. great service. dance show was good. buffet dinner wide spread. but the difference in prices between with transport and without transport for hotel transfer is quite a diff! not sure how it works.

Tour guide Kim and driver Mr. Moon were the best. The tour was spectacular, they were very helpful, we had water at every stop, and they provided umbrellas in case we needed them. He told us the history of the place. The food was delicious and I loved the local pancake. 100% recommended.

I participated in the afternoon tour. Tour schedule: The itinerary starts by traveling in an air-conditioned van close to the floating village, and from there you switch to a large boat. You tour the floating village while listening to explanations from the tour guide, Happy tear. You can get a close-up look at houses, a police station, a school, children heading out in canoes, and the floating market! After taking a short break and an optional mangrove boat experience, you board the boat again and head toward Tonle Sap Lake. The view of the sunset reflecting on the lake stretching out as far as the eye can see is breathtaking, and it is worth coming just for this! Attraction along the way: For $5.50 for one person or $11.00 for two, you can ride a two-person mangrove boat (canoe). A local guide will row the boat and take you on a 30-minute tour through the mangrove forest. While there is no commentary, it is highly recommended as you can experience the mystery of nature. Everyone in my group participated. Guide: Our guide, Happy tear, was very cheerful and provided easy-to-understand explanations! When we were caught in a sudden squall along the way, they provided a sheltered spot and umbrellas. They handled the situation flexibly, such as waiting until the squall stopped, which gave us great peace of mind. The driver, Bond, had a very kind smile and guided me when I was having trouble finding the van.

Five stars all the way! Mr. Tola was an exceptional guide with a deep, impressive knowledge about the Angkor Wat He also kept the whole group engaged from start to finish and knew all the best photo spots to avoid the crowds. Thank you so much ☺️

Booking the Angkor Wat Sunrise Tour through Klook was an incredible experience and easily one of the highlights of my time in Siem Reap. The early wake-up call was completely worth it to watch the sun rise behind the iconic towers of Angkor Wat—a breathtaking, bucket-list moment. Everything was organized seamlessly, from the prompt morning hotel pickup to the comfortable transport between the different temple sites. Our tour guide, Sen, truly made the day unforgettable. Sen was exceptionally knowledgeable, sharing fascinating stories about the Khmer Empire, the intricate temple carvings, and the cultural significance of each stop. Rather than just reciting facts, Sen brought history to life in an engaging, easy-to-understand way, pacing the group perfectly so we never felt rushed. Sen was also attentive to everyone's comfort, ensuring we stayed hydrated and recommending the best shaded routes as the heat picked up. Highly recommended tour. Super worth it!

This tour is reasonably priced yet offers an experience that exceeds the cost. Because it's a half-day tour, it's not too tiring, and you can conserve your energy since you are picked up and dropped off in an air-conditioned bus along the way. The Tonle Sap Lake is the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia and feels just like an ocean! It was very interesting to see the lives of the people living on the lake. The sunset viewed from the boat was truly beautiful. If you are hesitating, you should definitely join! I participated as a single Japanese woman, and as long as you have basic listening and response skills, you won't have any trouble. Nan, who led our tour this time, was polite and attentive from start to finish. He spoke fluent English and happily answered questions from us tourists, which deepened our knowledge and made it a fun tour. He sent detailed time updates via WhatsApp on the day of the tour, so I was able to spend my time freely until then. Thank you very much.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Experience – Highly Recommended! Booking through Klook was quick and easy. Just present the barcode from your booking confirmation at the reception for a smooth check-in. Phare, The Cambodian Circus was the first highlight of my visit to Siem Reap on 23 June 2026. The one-hour performance was absolutely worth it, featuring amazing acrobatics, theatre, live music, and meaningful storytelling about Cambodian life and culture. Before the show, we were given a hand fan. While waiting, we enjoyed the souvenir stalls, food and drink vendors, and a cultural dance performance. My favourite part was the live band. The musicians were incredibly talented, and their music made every scene even more powerful and memorable. Overall, it was a unique and unforgettable experience. I highly recommend Phare, The Cambodian Circus to anyone visiting Siem Reap.

We had a wonderful experience exploring Angkor Wat with Sol as our tuk-tuk driver! He was friendly, helpful, and made our temple tour comfortable and enjoyable. He helped make our visit to the temples even more memorable. If you’re visiting Siem Reap and looking for a tuk-tuk driver for your Angkor Wat tour, we highly recommend Sol! Thank you, Sol, for making our trip special! 🇰🇭
