In November, Cambodia comes alive with the exhilarating Water Festival, a three-day extravaganza on full moon.  For those seeking mild temperatures and clear skies, December to February offers near-perfect weather conditions for sightseeing and outdoor activities. Whether you’re exploring the floating villages of Tonlé Sap or trekking through the pristine jungles of Mondulkiri, you’ll enjoy comfortable temperatures and minimal rainfall during this time.

During these transitional months, you’ll enjoy relatively dry weather, lower prices on accommodations, and fewer tourists vying for prime spots at popular attractions. May to October: The Green Season The months from May to October usher in Cambodia’s green season, characterized by occasional downpours and lush landscapes. While the humidity can be intense, particularly in August and September, this is an excellent time to experience Cambodia’s natural beauty at its most vibrant. Plus, you’ll encounter fewer tourists, allowing for a more intimate exploration of sites such as Koh Ker and Preah Vihear. The optimal time to visit Cambodia hinges on your preferences and priorities. Whether captivated by the allure of ancient heritage sites, enticed by vibrant cultural festivities, or enraptured by the serenity of natural landscapes, Cambodia promises an enchanting experience year-round.
