tamalp Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Hello, anybody knows of reputable tour agency to Siem Reap .thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEQ Posted October 10, 2015 Share Posted October 10, 2015 Good luck with that. Why not self-travel? Buy flights from airasia. Find a guest house or hotel on agoda that has good reviews. Accept their kind offer of free airport pick-up. Hire a tuktuk to take you round the temples for $12 per day (you'll need to haggle). Hire a guide at the temples if you want one (check his English skills before you decide). Walk to the market by the river to buy souvenirs (haggle again). Eat and drink around Pub Street in the evening. Take tuktuk back to the airport for $4. Job done (save $500). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddave Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 Good suggestions from DEQ. I would add, buy a good guidebook for Angkor Wat before you go and carry it along. The local guides mean well but their descriptions are delivered by rote and not very interesting. Most important: don't only concentrate on Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom. There are fascinating sights and far less crowds deep into the complex and worth devoting a couple of days to exploring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ourdon Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I add my thanks to Tamalps. Since it appears that I may have to leave on a visa run anyway, I had thought either Siem Reap or Saigon might be a reasonable destination. This helps.
