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 recently went on an African Safari with my brother-in-law and sister and another couple who I knew. The entire experience was absolutely unbelievable. The complete details were flawlessly coordinated from the transfers to the breathtaking lodges. Our guides Peter showed us Kenya and Maulid Tanzania were very knowledgeable and very sharp eyes for finding the animals. We were able to see the animals up close, learn a lot about the people, birds , vegetation etc. We had several sundowners in the bush really added to a magical experience with beautiful sunsets. I would highly recommend Goway to all my friends, they will not be disappointed. Thank you to Bijal for the excellent African Safari that you put together for us. You were wonderful.Nancy Hay

Kimberly Brown from Goway Travel made my trip to Australia & New Zealand a very memorable and remarkable experience. Every step and detail was fantastic and I will never forget the trip of a lifetime and it was because of the experience of Kimberly. If you are thinking about taking a trip to New Zealand and Australia, I highly recommend contacting Kimberly from Goway travel. David Klein

We had a blast and felt covered by GoAway throughout. This was our first time using a travel agent and Melissa and her team made it easy. I also appreciated the quick communication while on our trip. I only wish that we got our official itinerary and tickets sooner as we did not receive them until a week prior. But it is busy season so I understand. Courtney McCarthy

Our trip to Japan was great. All our Goway arrangements preformed like clockwork and the guides for the tours were wonderful. Unfortunately, Mt. Fuji was in total fog but at least the lunch was very good and so was the drum solo, also our tour guide kept our spirits up ( she was the best). Taryn picked hotels that were very convenient to the meeting point of our tours which was much appreciated and organized all aspects of our trip perfectly. So from our airport pickup to our last day in Tokyo everything ran very smoothly so we have used Goway before and will certainly use it again and reccommend Goway to others.JW
