AMAZING COOKING CLASS
I had a wonderful time at this cooking class! Dee were friendly, knowledgeable, and made the experience fun from start to finish. I loved exploring the local market and learning about traditional ingredients. The dishes were easy to follow, delicious, and something I can now make at home. A great cultural experience—highly recommended!

Wonderful class. Amazing teacher. Great cultural experience
We had a wonderful experience with Dee. Our tuk-tuk driver took us to a local market and talked to us about the vegetables being sold in the market. He then took us to Dee's home, where she has a lovely covered cooking porch inside her beautiful garden. We each prepared three Khmer dishes. We both chose to start with a green mango salad. My 2nd dish was Samlor ktis. My husband had Amok fish. We had an option for dessert, but since we don't like sweets we chose a vegetable dish for our third dish. I had crispy fried mushrooms and tofu and he had fried morning glory. Dee was a great teacher and we learned a lot about Khmer cooking. The food was delicious and I would highly recommend this tour as a great way to learn about Khmer cooking and culture.

Our Favorite Cooking Class Experience!
We did this class in the low season, and it ended up a private session with the 2 of us. The experience included an authentic wet market tour where locals shop daily, a tour of the garden where we picked ingredients to use in our meals, and Dee ensured we were kept hydrated and the food turned out delicious. The meals included a choice of starter, main (including veg options), and a dessert. This was the first chance I had to cook and eat authentic Cambodian food, and I’m glad for the recipes to try again at home. Overall, the experience lasted about 3hrs. Dee was a delightful host and was able to answer many of cultural questions beyond food, which made the experience feel all the more personal.

Why this scores 74
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Siem Reap Cooking Class: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Siem Reap.
How much does Siem Reap Cooking Class cost?
+
Prices start at $35 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 Siem Reap Cooking Class take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Siem Reap Cooking Class worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 170 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 Siem Reap Cooking Class?
+
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 Siem Reap Cooking Class suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 15. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 3-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Siem Reap Cooking Class?
+
Around 59 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Siem Reap Cooking Class 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 Angkor Wat Sunrise or Sunset Small-Group and Guide tours, Angkor Wat full Day 'Small Group with sunset & Tour Guide, Angkor Wat Sunrise or Sunset Tour with Guide from Siem Reap. 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.
