Siem Reap with Kids - A family friendly activity guide.
The Boston Tribe Travels
So, you're all set to explore the magical city of Siem Reap, where ancient temples reign supreme and history whispers secrets from every corner. Let’s be honest, this is the reason we head to Siem Reap… Angkor Wat. It really is a breathtaking temple, one of the most iconic and well-preserved archaeological sites in the world. But how much do our kids care about this? Not so much.
But luckily Siem Reap is a bit of a dark horse and has many things to offer families hoping for more than temples, if you know where to look!
While the majestic temples are the main attraction, Siem Reap also boasts lively markets, cultural shows, and a buzzing nightlife.
The Old Market and Night Market are bustling with vendors selling local crafts, souvenirs, and mouthwatering street food – a perfect place for some retail therapy and gastronomic adventures.
After a month in Siem Reap, here are our best bits for you to create your unique itinerary.

When to visit
Siem Reap welcomes visitors year-round, each season offering its own unique charm. Consider the following guide to help you plan the best time for your family adventure
Dry Season (November to April):
The dry season is the most popular time to visit Siem Reap, offering pleasant weather with low humidity and minimal rainfall. This period is perfect for exploring the ancient temples comfortably and enjoying outdoor activities. December and January are particularly busy due to the holiday season, so plan and book accommodations in advance
Shoulder Season (May and October)
The shoulder seasons mark the transition between the dry and rainy seasons. May is warmer, and occasional rain showers bring relief from the heat. October sees the weather starting to cool down, with fewer tourists and more affordable accommodations.
