My trip to Siem Reap was fantastic. I discovered this place to be very safe, local people are so kind and helpful. I arrived there by bus from Bangkok and easily got visa on arrival at the border. I stayed in Bokre Angkor Hostel, staff is very lovely and helpful there. If you'll decide to visit this place you should definitely go to see Angkor Wat - the largest Hindu-Buddhist temple complex in the world.

Like most people, we went to Siem Reap to visit the world-famous Angkor Wat. It is absolutely worth a visit. The magnificent temples are even more stunning in real life and our local guide Mr. Sa was amazing! He showed us to so many spots and told us stories about himself, Angkor Wat, and Cambodia. It was really a journey of a lifetime. Siem Reap is pretty safe as far as the touristy parts go. The local people were really kind and helpful. I had such a great time there!!

Tuk-tuk drivers will drop you off on one side of the temple and meet up with you on the other side when you're done. During the day, I hired a tuk-tuk driver who transported me between temples, and then I toured by myself, but there are plenty of guides around each temple if you need someone. There's only one place where you can buy entrance into Angkor Wat, and that's the Official Angkor Ticket Center. Don't buy tickets or tours from unauthorized...
