Creator's Key Takeaways

This is a bucket list trip for me. I am so looking forward to visiting CM Reap Panam Pen, eating some really fantastic food, but really getting to know the culture of Vietnam and Cambodia.

I had such a great time. This was a huge bucket list destination for me and I am always going to remember finally getting to see Enchor Watt and not only seeing it but experiencing it at sunrise.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Pack fans and cooling towels for heat and humidity.
Consider booking pre- or post-extensions in Siem Reap and Saigon for a fuller vacation.
Choose August or September for fewer crowds and less rain.
