Siem Reap city is almost small enough to get around on foot, but not quite. The Angkor Park entrance is 4 kilometers from town and the temples inside the park are as much as 3 kilometers apart, ordinarily requiring some sort of transportation to tour. Tuk-tuks, motorcycle taxis and cars taxis are the most popular forms of transportation. In-town it's always easy to find tuk-tuks and motodups for short trips. Transportation to and around the temples is usually hired by the day. To avoid later misunderstandings, make sure to negotiate the details of the driver's services carefully - exact price, what times you expect the day to begin and end, availability during lunch hours, limitations on you itinerary and touring route, extra charges for distant temples, etc. Normally sunset is include with the tour if you go to see temples around small or big circuit tour, extra charge about $5 for sunrise for drivers or tour guides to go with you from sunrise. Be aware of doing sunrise and sunset on the same day if you go with the tour guide, they have no enough energy to stay with you from sunrise till sunset.
Moto-remorques (Tuk tuks)
Moto-remorques are the most common and popular form of transportation in town - the semi-enclosed trailer offering a comparatively pleasant ride. Tuk-tuks are omnipresent in Siem Reap. Just step to the curb and they will find you. For short trips around town, foreigners are expected to pay $5 to $7. Bargain! Full day rates for transportation to the temples: $15-$20/per day depend on your itinerary. Additional charge for transport to distant temples.
Cars/Taxis
Private car taxis offer a comfortably air-conditioned way to tour the temples, though they are the most expensive option. Rates: $25-$30 per day plus additional charge for transportation to distant temples off the main circuits. Taxis from the airport to town also offer taxi.tour services to the temples.
