October marks the transition from the rainy to the dry season in Cambodia. Hotel prices remain in low season until the end of the month, although it may be that the dry weather begins early in the month.

As October progresses, Cambodia typically sees fewer rainy days and more prolonged periods of clear cloudless skies, with temperatures in the high twenties or early thirties.

Rivers in Cambodia are at their highest levels at this time of year making this a great time to consider a Mekong River cruise in Cambodia.
