Tips for Exploring Angkor Wat, Cambodia 🇰🇭

#cambodiatrip

🚗 You’ll definitely need a driver or tuk-tuk for exploring Angkor Wat—it’s not just one temple, but a huge complex spread over miles of jungle and countryside.

🗺️ The temples are far apart, and walking between them isn’t realistic in the heat. A driver helps you plan your route, stay cool, and make the most of your time.

📆 I booked a driver for multiple days, and it was the best decision. He knew all the routes, gave great local tips, and waited while I explored each temple.

🌄 Starting early is key—sunrise at Angkor Wat is iconic, and a driver can get you there before the crowds. After that, you can hit the quieter temples first.

💧 Bring water, wear light clothes, and expect to get dusty. Having a driver means you can stash your stuff in the vehicle and take breaks when needed.

🛕 With a driver, you can visit famous spots like Bayon and Ta Prohm, plus hidden gems most tourists miss.
