Best Time to Visit

Explore Cambodia's diverse seasons, each offering unique travel experiences.

Visiting Cambodia depends on the specific activities you plan to engage in. Cambodia's tourist season is categorized into three seasons — dry, hot, and rainy. The dry season (November to April) is the peak tourist season when the temperatures are pleasant. This period is ideal for outdoor activities like enjoying coastal regions, ancient temples, and other historical sites.

From April to June, Cambodia experiences a hot season. There is scorching heat and humidity that will prevent you from visiting ancient temples and other historical places. During this period, you can plan for indoor activities, which are plenty in Cambodia.

The rainy season is typically from May to October. During this period, Cambodia experiences heavy rainfall and humidity, so this period is not ideal for travel. However, the rainy season has its charm. The countryside is lush green, and the vegetation surrounding Angkor Wat is blooming, giving it a picturesque view.

Ultimately, the best time to visit Cambodia depends on your preferences. If you are looking for outdoor activities, the dry season is the best time to visit. On the other hand, if you are looking for fewer travellers and want to experience the lush landscapes, the rainy season is your best bet.

I have worked with Goway several times in the past two years and every single trip has been unforgettable. Specifically, our travel advisor, Maria, has helped us book phenomenal trips to Thailand, Spain, Portugal, Italy, Ireland, and most recently, Iceland. Maria is so wonderful and easy to talk to, but what really stands out is her ability to get to know her clients so she can plan trips that perfectly align with our interests and desires. I cannot recommend her strongly enough! Her expertise, hard-work, and dedication towards each trip has given myself, my family, and friends memories to last a lifetime! Kayla Covello

I have been booking with GoWay for more than 2 years and feel so fortunate to have the best Travel Advisor, Maria Spitman, making our vacations unforgettable. I can’t say enough about Maria… she is personable, efficient, detail-oriented, and extremely knowledgeable about her specialty destinations. We have booked many trips with her, including Thailand, Spain, Portugal, Sicily, Iceland, and our most recent trip in Greece. Maria has not only curated nuanced itineraries, but has done so combining her vast knowledge of each region with our interests and needs being met perfectly. With that, it is evident that Maria learns about her clients to create vacation packages that far exceed expectations. I won’t book with anyone else! GoWay has a gem that is irreplaceable! I highly recommend seeking Maria out for all your destination needs. Darleen

Lori Mezzomo and the team at Goway Travel are fantastic! Lori helped plan a 3-week Australia trip for our family of 5. Our teenage boys enjoyed exploring Sydney, Uluru, Cairns and the Gold Coast. Highlights included a Sydney Harbour Bridge walk, sunrise hike around Uluru, snorkeling with turtles on the Great Barrier Reef, and surfing on the gold coast. Lori did a fantastic job of creating an itinerary that was engaging for our teenage boys and relaxing for the parents... not an easy task! We miss Australia and would gladly book again with Lori Mezzomo and Goway Travel.Blair

Michael at Goway Travel was great to work with. We were planning a pre-trip with him prior to a group tour. He worked with us to hit the special places we wanted to visit and things we wanted to do. The accommodations arranged exceeded our expectations. Local guides were all amazing. This was the third trip we booked through Goway, and we will definitely book with them again in the future David Picka
