Ruined Temple Preh Vihear trip
It was a memorable trip with Chan, our tour guide, to Preh Vihear temple ruins. We got extensive experience from this trip by being proud of Cambodian having this temple accepted as the World heritage. Thank you Chan and driver Vatanak for your safe and comfortable drive.
Response from the operator: Dear Kyte, Many many thanks for your amazing review of our service. We are all excited to hear you had enjoyed this trip. Best regards, Tour guide team.

Preah Vihear UNESCO Temple Private Day Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Siem Reap.
How much does Preah Vihear UNESCO Temple Private Day Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $175 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 Preah Vihear UNESCO Temple Private Day Tour take?
+
Plan for about 7 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 Preah Vihear UNESCO Temple Private Day Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 1 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 Preah Vihear UNESCO Temple Private Day Tour?
+
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 Preah Vihear UNESCO Temple Private Day Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Preah Vihear UNESCO Temple Private Day Tour?
+
Around 0 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 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Preah Vihear UNESCO Temple Private Day Tour 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 Preah Vihear UNESCO Temple Private Day Tour?
+
Included: Private Tour Guide; hotel pick up & drop off; Private Transportation; Pure Drinking Water; and Travel Insurance. Not included: Temple Ticket pay onsite; and Meals. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Preah Vihear UNESCO Temple Private Day Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 474 listed pickup locations in and around Siem Reap. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Preah Vihear UNESCO Temple Private Day Tour 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 Preah Vihear UNESCO Temple Private Day Tour?
+
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.
Is Preah Vihear UNESCO Temple Private Day Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+

What happens to Preah Vihear UNESCO Temple Private Day Tour if the weather is bad?
