    Temple, waterfall, mountain day tour.

    Great day spent out from Siem Reap. Saw great views over Kulen National Park, saw the 1000 Linga carvings in the river, swam in the waterfall, had a very tasty lunch and a great tour of Mealea temple.

    Pleasant stay in Cambodia

    We had a great time together with Thet during our Cambodia stay of 8 nights. Despite I chosen one tour to waterfall, he spent all his time with us from the day we landed in Phnom Penh airport to Siem Reap then back to Phnom Penh & back to airport drop off. He drove us around historical places in Siem Reap including early morning early morning trip to sunrise view. Beside all his good work, I must say that Thet is arrive before the said time & wait for us. We never wait for him or never be late. On the other hand, he is very safe driver, he give priority to his customers safety & convenience than anything else. If anyone planning a trip, I will highly recommend to get Thet service which will make sure stay safe & enjoyable.

His dedication to ensuring your satisfaction is commendable. We are thrilled that Mr. Thet provided you with a comprehensive tour of the historical places in Siem Reap, including the early morning trip to catch the sunrise view. His punctuality is greatly appreciated, as he consistently arrived before the scheduled time and never kept you waiting.

    One Day Tour to Phnom Kulen Waterfall and Beng Mealea Temple: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Siem Reap.

    How much does One Day Tour to Phnom Kulen Waterfall and Beng Mealea Temple cost?

    +

    Prices start at $149 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Siem Reap usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does One Day Tour to Phnom Kulen Waterfall and Beng Mealea Temple take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Siem Reap is not rushed.

    Is One Day Tour to Phnom Kulen Waterfall and Beng Mealea Temple worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Siem Reap, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule One Day Tour to Phnom Kulen Waterfall and Beng Mealea Temple?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is One Day Tour to Phnom Kulen Waterfall and Beng Mealea Temple suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book One Day Tour to Phnom Kulen Waterfall and Beng Mealea Temple?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Siem Reap can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Siem Reap and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does One Day Tour to Phnom Kulen Waterfall and Beng Mealea Temple start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Siem Reap within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Siem Reap?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Siem Reap experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kampong Phluk Floating Village Tour by Boat, Angkor Wat Sunrise or Sunset Tour with Guide from Siem Reap, Angkor Wat Sunrise & 3 Main Temples – Small Group. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Siem Reap?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Siem Reap?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in One Day Tour to Phnom Kulen Waterfall and Beng Mealea Temple?

    +

    Included: Bottled water; In-vehicle air conditioning; English speaking tour guide; Cold towel; and Pick up from hotel. Not included: Kulen mountain entrance fee; Beng Mealea entrance fee; Meal; and Tipping for guide & Driver(Recommended). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does One Day Tour to Phnom Kulen Waterfall and Beng Mealea Temple include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 904 listed pickup locations in and around Siem Reap. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is One Day Tour to Phnom Kulen Waterfall and Beng Mealea Temple offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for One Day Tour to Phnom Kulen Waterfall and Beng Mealea Temple?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to One Day Tour to Phnom Kulen Waterfall and Beng Mealea Temple if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Siem Reap. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
