Hi. We did Angkor wat yesterday! It was amazing! You’ll have a brilliant time!!! As we were limited on time we did a one day ticket. And actually that was enough as the day pass allows you entry to all temples and we saw 6 in total. Definitely recommend a tuk tuk. We booked the one from the airport that took us to our hotel. It was 23 dollars for the day (hotel charges 28, it’s not much more but my preference is definitely that the driver doing the work gets the money) he was ace! As he knows the places well he chose the route and said a 4:30 start. I questioned this several times as sunrise is about 5:45. He was absolutely right! It meant we were first in the very big queue for the tickets. Then to AW for about 5am. Sunrise was exceptional! Here until 8:30 then the other temples, stop offs for lunch etc. Finished about 3pm. All for 23$ (although we tipped because he was ace!) You could get a car with AC but the tuk tuk breeze was enough to stay cool (34degrees when we went!) and with it being open you feel much more part of the experience I definitely wouldn’t do a group tour as you are dictated to by their times and it’s more rigid. The group tours we saw had some elements of boredom I think. You also might not see as much. There was plenty of single travellers, I wouldn’t worry about that at all Guides are available at entry to each. 7$ each time. Very knowledgeable however we didn’t use them and just relied on books etc. Just have an amazing time! It’s just so brilliant xx

Hi -- high season is November - February, when it is "cooler" -- it is never cool in Siem Reap, however this is the dry season and the best time to be there. You don't need more than 3-4 days in Siem Reap so I think you can go whenever it works best for your schedule/budget. Lisa

Hi! I don't believe there is a season without many tourists, for Angkor Wat, unfortunately. It's too much of a well known attraction for people, especially those traveling to Cambodia. Maybe try rainy season, but I honestly don't believe that will make much of a difference. My best suggestion is to go early, or late in the day, when it's not as hot. No matter what there will be tourists. Happy travels!
