Small planning errors that are easy to avoid once you know about them.
The park is enormous, rushing from temple to temple leads to fatigue, not memories. Spread it across two or three mornings if your schedule allows.
Distances look short on a map, but Cambodia's roads add up fast. Check real timing in the Logistics guide before committing to a same-day plan.
Outside the busiest December–January weeks, availability is rarely tight. Booking a few days ahead keeps your route open to change.
Bring more cash than you think you'll need before heading to Koh Rong, Kep, or rural areas, machines can be scarce or out of service.
Midday heat at Angkor is no joke, especially March–May. See Weather & What to Pack for specifics.
