Wonderful Experience
All was well organized from the booking to the tour organization. We had a great experience exploring the culture, history & foods. All done with great Cambodian hospitality. The hotels were exceptional. We finally ended up in a beautiful seaside resort island. Thanks for the program. We highly recommend this efficient & reliable agency.
2025.4.17 (Lausanne, Switzerland)
Highlights of Vietnam North to South (14 Days)
It's hard to put into words how amazing this trip was. From the accommodations, service, food, and daily activities/excursions, everything was outstanding – not to mention our wonderful guides who were all knowledgeable, authentic and friendly.
Even before we left, the level of professionalism and attention to detail exhibited by our Indochina Tour advisors, Amara and Kea, made me confident that this would be a really good trip.... but even with the bar set high, this trip far exceeded all our expectations still.
I would 100% consider using IndochinaTour.com for planning another trip in the region, and highly recommend them to anyone else who is considering one.
2025.4.13 (Boston, MA)
Stellar tour company
We had such a truly amazing time in Cambodia and Thailand with the private tour Indochina Tours planned for us..we decided we needed to go to Vietnam next year with the help of Indochina tours.
Ivy Wu who worked with me endlessly to plan the itinerary and especially Helen Chhour, the in-country contact in Cambodia, were simply stellar in their customer service and knowledge of the country and so willing to make changes due to some last minute health issues of my husband, changing our tours to private when needed to accomodate his problems walking and securing better seating and kid glove service on our flights. Simply superb.
We loved the tour guides and drivers in Cambodia and Thailand (especially Chen Suon in Cambodia...he was wonderful and kind in dealing with Eric's issues, but also warm and friendly and knowledgable in so many ways).
Just stellar all round.
2025.4.13 (Philadelphia, PA)
GREAT INDO TOUR
One of the best organized tours we have done as a group ! Well thought out, great sightseeing, good English speaking guides, good clean restaurants and good food even for some of us vegetarians.

An excellent, fun and varied itinerary in Vietnam and Cambodia!
We have just returned from a wonderful trip to Vietnam and Cambodia. Indochina were excellent from start to finish. Sreypov was able to put together the perfect itinerary for us - responding and adapting very quickly during the planning stages.
Kea gave us great support in organising everything during the lead up to the trip. Our guides and drivers in Ho Chi Minh, the Mekong, Phnom Penh and Siem Reap were all excellent. We had the perfect balance of culture, history, beach time and great food.

Amazing experience in SE Asia
My granddaughter and I traveled to Siem Reep, Cambodia for 3 nights on a private tour. My agents were Ms. Maiky and Ms. Kea. Ms. Maiky recommended some great options and listened to what I wanted. Our hotel was wonderful, the Koulen Central Hotel and we had wonderful breakfasts there included. We witnessed the grandeur of sunrise at Angkor Wat, multiple temples there, a countryside jeep tour, traveled to Tonle Sap Lake and visited a floating village. We inadvertently witnessed a local funeral and two weddings. We received an amazing massage after a full tour day in the nicest spa I have ever been to. Incredibly tranquil and soothing. Our guide, Mr. Socheat, knew everything about the places we visited and answered all our questions. It was a very full itinerary and that is what I asked for.
We then traveled to Thailand for 7 nights. The first 3 nights were in Bangkok at the Amara Bangkok Hotel, very modern and efficient property, also with a full buffet breakfast included. Our guide there was Ms. Ketsara and she was wonderful; very down to earth, lighthearted, and flexible with our itinerary. She came up with things to do that weren't on the original itinerary that we really enjoyed. We took a private motorboat tour on the Chao Praya River and passed temples along the way. Our favorite visit was to the Grand Palace and riding by tuk-tuk to the famous Reclining Buddha. One morning we drove to the train market and the floating market, both highly recommended.
We then flew to Chiang Mai in northern Thailand which had a completely different vibe and some intense spiritual energy. Our hotel there was the Boddhi Serene Boutique Hotel, which, after Bangkok felt like it could use a fresh coat of paint and deep clean, but it was a beautiful, peaceful property. We were there when the 7.7 earthquake hit nearby in Myanmar. The hotel staff was calm and efficient. It was an intense experience and we're grateful we were there at the time instead of almost anywhere else. We spent our days walking into town and checking out the sites.
We then flew to Phuket and stayed at the Burasari Phuket Resort. I didn't schedule full days in either Chiang Mai or Phuket as we were eager for some down time. We did do a full day tour by speedboat to Phi Phi Island and other smaller islands in the area. We snorkeled and swam and it was pleasant but a little too touristy for me. My 20-year-old granddaughter would have loved another day in Phuket and Bangkok.
All our hotels were good and our guides were good. The agents I booked with responded efficiently to any questions I had. I recommend travel with Indo-China Tours. They know the area and respond well to all requests.
2025.4.5 (Texas)
Great tour great memories!
I worked with Ivy at Indochina Tour to create a custom itinerary. I sent her the specific sights that I was particularly interested in and ones that I wanted to leave out and she curated that to a trip that we loved.
The guides and hotels were great. The one criticism I had with Indochina Tour is that after we booked the trip, the operations person that was responsible for the tour logistics would not respond to my emails and texts for a long time. This deficiency in communication was frustrating.
2025.4.3
Thailand Experience
Amazing private trip put together by IndoChina in all aspects, organized brilliantly and professionally by Pheakdey and Kea.
Everything was taken care of for us, including private tours, private driver and car, local food experiences and most importantly amazing professional tour guides - especially Nan our tour guide for Bangkok she went out of her way to make our trip unforgetable.
Highly recommend IndoChina as your agent for South East Asia - great service and best prices as well (no rip-offs).

FAQs about Planning a Cambodia Trip
Is It Safe to Visit Cambodia? Can I Travel Alone? 
Cambodia is a very safe country for visitors joining a tour or traveling alone. Serious crimes against tourists are rare, and local people are friendly and hospitable.
But, It is still important to take general precautions when traveling anywhere, including Cambodia. Petty crimes like bag snatching and pickpocket can happen in crowded areas, so always keep an eye on your belongings.
Traveling alone can be enjoyable, but having a local guide can enhance your experience and ensure your safety. A Cambodian local travel agency, like ours, can help you navigate the area, understand local customs, and avoid common pitfalls.
We can also assist in emergencies and provide valuable insights that make your trip smoother. So while solo travel is possible, partnering with a local agency can make your journey more enjoyable and secure.
When is the Best Time to Visit Cambodia?
Cambodia has a tropical climate with a dry and a rainy season.
Conditions are very similar all around the country, and the best weather for travel is from November to February. Temperatures are comfortable, with averages between 25°C and 27°C. Rainfall is at a minimum, so you can enjoy sunny weather outdoors with no disruptions.
The rainy season from June to October is sometimes preferred by budget travelers, or people looking for a quieter experience.
With fewer tourists in that season, good deals can be found on accommodations and tours. Popular sites like Angkor Wat are much less crowded, for a more intimate experience. However, be prepared for the rain. At its peak, there are 15 days of rain during September, so having backup travel plans is important.
How Much Does a Cambodia Trip Cost?
The cost of a Cambodia trip depends on your travel preferences.
It generally costs around 500 USD for round trip plane tickets from major international cities. Once there, costs are very reasonable.
Food from street food vendors and at small local restaurants is a must-try, and costs between 1-5 USD per person.
Tuk tuk rides around the cities rarely cost more than 5 USD, and tourist attractions are between 10-20 USD.
Accommodations are one of the biggest expenses. Three-star hotels are usually between 25-50 USD per night. Luxury hotels, costs around 100-400+ USD depending on the season.
Is It Easy to Get into Cambodia? How to Get to Cambodia?
Getting in to Cambodia is simple for most tourists. A visa on arrival can be obtained at the airports in Phnom Penh and Siem Reap.
All you need is a passport with at least six months remaining validity, and 30 USD for the fee. E-visas can also be obtained online prior to travel. These cost 36 USD, and are a good choice during busy tourist seasons when lines at immigration can be long.
Cambodia is almost never more than one flight connection away.
Direct connections to Phnomh Penh and Siem Reap are available from several major transportation hubs in Asia. Phnom Penh is the most convenient to reach.
Regular flights from Seoul, Shanghai, Singapore, Bangkok, and Hanoi fly into the capital on a daily basis. Siem Reap can be reached from Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Hanoi, and Bangkok.
Once in Cambodia, domestic flights between major cities are frequent and affordable.
How Many Days in Cambodia is Enough?
Cambodia has a lifetime of experiences to offer travelers.
In six days you can see many of the highlights of Phnom Penh and Siem Reap. You can visit the Royal Palace and learn about the country’s tragic history at the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum in the capital. Then, travel to Siem Reap and visit Angkor Wat during the day, and soak up city culture on the famous Pub Street, or in local markets.
In 7-10 days, you can add a visit to Tonle Sap Lake and see the floating villages and markets.
Sihanoukville has great beaches for escaping from busy cities, or go to Koh Rong for the experience of the island paradise.
14 days are recommended for visiting some lesser known locations like Battambang and its famous bamboo train, or the pepper plantations of Kampot.
Is Angkor Wat Worth Visiting? Is It Safe to Visit?
Yes! Angkor Wat is absolutely worth visiting.
The UNESCO World Heritage Site is the largest religious structure in the world, and offers a unique experience that can’t be found anywhere else in the world. Spread over 1.6 km2, the site has countless wonders to explore.
In addition to the iconic temples like Angkor Wat and Bayon, you can find hidden temples in the jungles like Ta Som Temple and Banteay Prei. Arrive at sunrise and stay for sunset for unforgettable sights of the temple complex awash in the golden glow.
It is a very safe place to visit. Getting there from Siem Reap is easy, and the routes between the main temples are easy to follow.
Some of the ground can be rough, and you’ll encounter uneven surfaces when exploring inside the temples. Shoes with good traction, and a reasonable level of caution will help you avoid any accidents.
What to Wear for Visiting Angkor Wat and Cambodia?
Angkor Wat is the pride of Cambodian people and a symbol of the country, and should be approached respectfully.
It was built as a center of religion and spirituality, and the dress code is the same as when visiting temples. Clothing should cover the shoulders and knees.
Despite the often hot temperatures, lightweight, breathable clothing made from cotton or linen can keep you cool while covered up.
Transparent and tight fitting clothing is not respectful of the solemn atmosphere of the site, and colors should be generally muted.
Comfortable shoes are a must, as most of the visit will be on foot, and much of the terrain is not suitable for sandals or high heels.
Are People Friendly in Cambodia?
Cambodian people are incredibly friendly and hospitable.
Traveling around the country you’ll always find smiling people very happy to chat or help when needed. The predominantly Buddhist culture has deep roots.
Kindness and compassion are valued in Cambodia, particularly towards new visitors. They are proud of their country, and happy to share local customs and traditions.
You’ll also find people are curious and inquisitive about international tourists. When there are no communication barriers, expect to be asked a lot of questions about where you’re from, and what it’s like there.
What Kind of Currency Can I Use in Cambodia?
Cambodia’s official currency is the Cambodian Riel, but US dollars are widely accepted around the country. A good practice is to use US dollars for larger purchases, and keep some local currency on hand for small transactions.
ATMs are widely available in larger cities. Credit cards are accepted at most major establishments and in many tourist areas. Currency exchange rates at the airport are not always favorable.
Only exchange what you need for immediate payments, and then find a bank or exchange counter in the city after comparing rates.
Dos and Dons When Visiting Cambodia
Do learn some simple phrases in the local language, and greet people with a smile.
Do ask for permission before taking photographs of Cambodian people or monks.
Do dress modestly, particularly when visiting religious sites including Angkor Wat. Shirts should cover the shoulders, and pants or skirts should be at least knee-length.
Do interact with people in a calm and friendly manner. Even during a disagreement, it is best to not show anger publicly.
Don’t be afraid to haggle. Be friendly about it, but it is expected when shopping in markets or at small local establishments.
Don’t show affection in public. Be mindful of the conservative local culture.
Don’t touch anyone on the head, and women should not touch monks or their clothing.

Is Cambodian Street Food is Safe? What to Eat and Drink during a Trip?
Cambodian street food is delicious and safe to eat.
Use common sense and make sure to choose stalls that are clean with good food hygiene practices.
It is always safer to choose places that are busy, and offer a limited range of food. Popular street food vendors have a regular turnover of ingredients, better ensuring everything is fresh.
Try all the local specialties while you’re there. Amok, curried fish or chicken served in a banana leaf, lok lak, stir-fried beef with rice, and num banh chok, rice noodles served with a fish curry sauce, are all popular favorites.
The coastal regions have excellent fresh seafood. Stick to drinking bottled water or other beverages. The tap water in Cambodia is not safe to drink.
How is the Accommodation Condition in Cambodia?
Cambodia has a wide range of accommodations from world-class, luxury resorts, to comfortable 3-star hotels.
Every city has options close to the main attractions, or in the heart of the nightlife area. You can also arrange stay at eco-lodges tucked away in idyllic natural surroundings, or homestays to immerse yourself in local culture.
For budget travelers hostels and guesthouses are easy to find, and are great places to meet fellow travelers from around the world.
