Travel tips
Cambodia
Cambodia has two seasons, both affected by the monsoon winds. The northeastern monsoon blowing toward the coast ushers in the cool, dry season in November, which lasts through February, with temperatures between 18°C and 27°C.
Most visitors to Cambodia require a one-month tourist visa (US$30, one passport-size photo is required). Most nationalities receive this on arrival at Phnom Penh and Siem Reap airports, and at land borders, but citizens of Afghanistan, Algeria, Bangladesh, Iran, Iraq, Nigeria, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Sri Lanka and Sudan need to make advance arrangements.
Public health facilities in Cambodia are very poor. Private clinics and hospitals in Phnom Penh are often better equipped, but are of variable quality and can be expensive. Many treatments and procedures are not available in Cambodia.
New Year’s Day on January 1: Celebrates the beginning of the Gregorian New Year
Khmer New Year on April 14-16: This national holiday was established to celebrate the New Year in Cambodia. The holiday lasts for three days and is considered to be the most important festival on the calendar.
Currently, Cambodia has three airports receiving international flights: Phnom Penh, Siem Riep and Sihanoukville. There are always taxis, tuk-tuks and motodups awaiting and available for arriving passengers. The cheapest option to travel around cities in Cambodia is to travel using the bus.
Cambodia is a pretty safe country for travelers these days, but remember the golden rule: stick to marked paths in remote area (because of land mines). Although most visits are trouble-free, there are crime reports including bag snatchings and bag-straps cutting.
Internet access is widespread, but there are not as many internet shops as there used to be now that wifi is more prevalent. Many hotels, guesthouses, restaurants and cafes now offer free wifi, even in the most out-of-the-way provincial capitals.
