After living in Siem Reap my 5 Australian children aged 15-9 years-old have become masters of finding fun and hidden gems Siem Reap has to offer kids and families. Look past the mesmerising temples of Bayon, Ta Prom and Angkor Wat and there is an abundance of family-friendly activities to do in Siem Reap, Cambodia.

Here are their TOP 10 MUST SEE & DO- Siem Reap, Cambodia list rated by my kids:

1. Art Box Adults $10 Children $5 - Expats and locals half price discount

Open 9am-9pm daily. Hours can be spent taking photographs that come to life at Art Box. We had so much fun and only left because all our devices had died. Perfect for all ages!

2. Angkor Wat Putt-putt- Pay per game includes equipment and free soft drink or beer.

A 14 hole minutare golf course featuring 9 accurate detailed replicas of the world famous AngkorTemples. Perfect for the whole family young and old. Our daughtrer Layla loved 8 loved beating her older brother.

It can be HOT in Siem Reap, so plan your game time wisely.We have found after 2pm is the ideal time to visit as the weather is not so humid
Open 8am-8pm Everyday

3. Happy Horse Ranch Farm - price starting $29

A huge hit with our kids, the Happy Horse Ranch offers trail rides 1-4 hours sunrise to sunset. They also cater to children's birthday parties.

the absolute best care is given to all the animals here. Sunset trails are amazing!!
Open sunrise to sunset.

4. Kulen Mountain

Escape the heat for a day by the beautiful waterfalls of Kulen Mountain. Pack your own lunch, local dishes sold here are sold at very expensive tourist prices.

Choose to walk the mountain and enjoy the scenery not recommended for small children as the stairs are a killer even for some adults. We mostly opt to drive up :) Don't forget your towels and sunscreen.

Don't forget to see the Golden Buddha at the top and keep an eye out for the monkeys everywhere. I had a baby climbing all over me.

5. Angkor Dynasty Waterpark - $5 per person

Opened late 2017 my children are the biggest fans! Rides, slides and fun everywhere you look. A giant wave pool with tubes and lifeguards on duty although it is advised to keep a close eye on your children.

Food drinks drink fairly priced and shaded areas to sit and relax and have lunch. A great day out for the family.

I love the Kulen Mountain the most. Places like that are close to my heart except for the monkey though :) The Art Box is interesting too.

Kulen is so beautiful. The monkeys still scare me because of rabies, but are so cute I love them from a distance lol.

I had close encounters with monkeys in Bali, Indonesia. I have to be very watchful of them haha!
