YOUR GROUP · ESTIMATED BUDGET
1,320–1,460 USD
About 660–730 USD per person, sharing costs equally
Lower end: calculated budget. Upper end: that budget + 10% reserve. Both ends are rounded outwards to 10 USD. These are estimates, not observed prices or supplier quotes.
Separate budget: international and domestic flights, visas, insurance, shopping, alcohol, medical costs and Travel Planner fees.
Based on the two couple examples in the table below. These are editorial planning assumptions, not current hotel or restaurant prices. Simple stays: 35 USD per room/night and 15 USD per person/day for food. More comfort: 75 USD per room/night and 25 USD per person/day for food. We allow one fewer night than days. By default, up to two travellers share each room. If one person is left without a roommate, they pay for a full room. Separate rooms use one room per traveller.
The 14-day transport allowances (250 / 450 USD for two) and activity allowances (200 / 350 USD for two) scale linearly by days and travellers. This approximation can be weak for short trips or many stops. It does not price your route; selected stops highlight costs to check; only the selected Angkor pass can increase the activities allowance. No verified destination-specific accommodation ranges are available in this model.
When an Angkor pass is selected, activities are the higher of the prorated allowance and the selected passes for the group (37 / 62 USD per person). This ensures tickets fit within the allowance; it does not guarantee room for a guide or other visits. Transport and activities are rounded to whole dollars before summing. The reserve is 10% of that subtotal, rounded to a whole dollar.
All amounts are in US dollars; no exchange-rate conversion or seasonal adjustment. Confirm room occupancy, dates, taxes and availability with suppliers.
Angkor pass prices ↗Build one budget for the whole group, then separate shared costs from per-person costs. A room, a bus seat and a private vehicle do not multiply in the same way. Start with the nights and the route, keep prepaid costs visible, and replace estimates with actual quotes as you book.
The examples below use 14 days and 13 nights. They are deliberately transparent calculations, not current market averages, hotel quotes or a promise that a particular itinerary is available at that price.
All figures are US dollars for the whole group. The family column assumes two adults and two children sharing suitable accommodation; its food and activity allowances include everyone. These categories illustrate different choices, not standards attached to a price.
| Expense | Two adults, simple stays | Two adults, more comfort | Family of four |
|---|---|---|---|
| Accommodation, 13 nights | $35 × 13 = $455 | $75 × 13 = $975 | $100 × 13 = $1,300 |
| Food and non-alcoholic drinks, 14 days | $30 × 14 = $420 | $50 × 14 = $700 | $70 × 14 = $980 |
| Transport allowance, including local rides | $250 | $450 | $600 |
| Visits and activities allowance | $200 | $350 | $450 |
| Subtotal | $1,325 | $2,475 | $3,330 |
| 10% planning reserve | $132.50 | $247.50 | $333 |
| Illustrative group total | $1,457.50 | $2,722.50 | $3,663 |
The 10% reserve is a planning choice, not a guarantee against unexpected spending. Keep it separate so that a more expensive room does not silently consume the money intended for changes.
Not included: international flights, visas, insurance, shopping, alcohol, medical costs and any trip-planning fee. Add a domestic flight, a particular lodge or a major excursion explicitly if you want one; do not assume it fits inside the transport or activity allowance.
Use the calculator on this page to vary the assumptions, then compare the result with real room and transport quotes. An estimate becomes useful when you know which amounts remain uncertain.
Start with the items that change the structure of the bill.
| Decision | What to price | Common counting mistake |
|---|---|---|
| Rooms | The actual beds and occupancy for all travellers | Multiplying an adult room rate by the number of people |
| Transfers | Every leg, including airport and final boat/hotel connection | Counting only the long-distance ticket |
| A guided temple day | Entry, guide and vehicle separately | Counting the same driver in two allowances |
| Meals | The group’s daily total and included breakfasts | Adding breakfast again when it is already paid for |
| Prepaid bookings | Full cost, deposit paid and remaining balance | Removing prepaid costs from the total trip budget |
In the family example, changing from one suitable $100 room to two $75 rooms adds $50 a night, or $650 over thirteen nights. That is a comparison of assumptions, not a statement that either room is available.
Use the route guide to list journeys before selecting hotels. For a private vehicle, request a group quote with the route, hours, luggage and inclusions specified. Transfer enquiries can start from that list.
Price the experience you most want early. If the priority is a guided visit or several island nights, protect it in the budget and adjust less important choices around it.
The official Angkor ticket page, checked on 10 November 2026, lists $37 for one visit day and $62 for three. Two paying adults therefore need $74 or $124 for entry, before transport and a guide. Children under 12 are exempt, with age proof potentially requested.
For two temple days within the permitted validity window, compare the three-day pass with two single-day passes. The family total is not automatically four times an adult ticket: age-based entry, room occupancy and vehicle capacity behave differently. Decide how many Angkor days you want before inserting the cost.
If the result is too high, change one assumption at a time so you can see what helped.
Then test a slightly higher room or transport quote. If the plan only works at the lowest estimate, it needs more room or fewer commitments. Use the 10-or-14-day comparison for the route and the money guide for payment fees; those are different questions.
Whether you plan independently or ask for help, keep a short working sheet: item, group total, quoted or estimated, paid amount, remaining balance, cancellation terms. That makes the budget usable before and during the trip.
