Cambodia is beautiful, but I probably won't return. For the first time, I was happy to be leaving. Terrible filth, bodies thrown into the lake, trash everywhere, the stench, and very persistent people treating you like a money bag. Additionally, they cheated horribly and were brazen about it.
Posted: October 24, 2023I went to Cambodia in February this year and it is one of my favorite countries. So safe and Cambodian people are some of the nicest, friendliest people in the world. I recommend getting the Grab app, it is their version of Uber and it makes getting around for shorter distances very easy, affordable, and safe. For longer distances, I recommend booking a tuk-tuk driver through your accommodation.
Posted: October 23, 2023I was in Siem Reap for 2 weeks, 5 days in Koh Rong, and a few days in Phnom Penh in June. Loved the island and Siem Reap. Totally safe, and felt safer than major tourist hotspots in the EU, with no snatch thieves or pickpockets. Locals were quite respectful and didn't follow/harass me. Highly recommend.
Posted: October 20, 2023I went to Cambodia solo and stayed in Siem Reap. I felt completely safe. Didn’t wander too far at night. But overall, I didn’t feel threatened once. I have a wonderful tuk-tuk driver I used for airport drives, the entire day in Angkor Wat, and exploring the outskirts of the city.
Posted: October 17, 2023I was in Cambodia for three weeks and had a great time. I definitely recommend the islands, Koh Rong is beautiful and feels very safe. Phnom Penh can be a bit hit or miss amongst the other travelers I met, but I personally really enjoyed it, the history there is fascinating and I never had any problems with the locals and everyone was lovely.
Posted: October 16, 2023Went to Cambodia solo, and stayed in Siem Reap, with absolutely no issues or concerns with my safety. Was out late every night and didn’t feel unsafe at all.
Posted: October 14, 2023Spent a month in Cambodia and they are the most friendly people I've ever met. Never felt unsafe for one second and I walked everywhere. I absolutely fell in love with Cambodia.
Posted: October 12, 2023I went to Siem Reap, Battambang, Koh Rong, Kampot, and Phnom Penh and had an amazing time. Cambodia has a devastating history which is important to learn about to understand the country. The only place I felt like I had to be super wary was Phnom Penh but only really in the evenings.
Posted: August 7, 2023I’ve been to Cambodia twice. Of the 50 countries I’ve been to, it’s easily in my top 3. I love it. No scams. Kind people. Angkor is beautiful. The history of the country made my heart hurt but it’s important to know about it.
Posted: April 23, 2023I went to Cambodia solo and loved it. Siem Reap felt like the safest place in Cambodia to me. Tuk Tuks were available everywhere and didn't cost much at all, I preferred using them over walking just because the roads were hectic.
Posted: March 11, 2023I find it fairly safe as a single woman. If I'm going out alone after it gets dark I always get a tuk-tuk and avoid walking. You need to be careful with your belongings because of pickpockets, and bag snatchers, but other than that it's generally pretty safe.

I'm a 35 year old, gym enthusiast who loves travel and a good red wine, beer or cocktail. My breakaway has always been travel, experiencing new cultures, food, people, night life. I consider myself an explorer but also enjoy the wind down. One of my favourite things about travel is meeting people from all walks of life, trying something new, living in the moment with a good photo to hold as memory.
