REP Airport Transfer | Siem Reap International — Angkor Wat

Siem Reap International Airport (IATA: REP) is located 7 kilometres from the Old Market district and 12 kilometres from the Angkor Archaeological Park entrance. The airport serves the Angkor Wat tourism corridor and handles routes from Bangkok, Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, Hanoi, and Ho Chi Minh City. Note: a new Siem Reap-Angkor International Airport (IATA: SAI, approximately 50 km from the city) opened in late 2023 and is absorbing some commercial routes — check your flight details to confirm which airport your flight uses. A LocalsRide driver meets you inside the REP arrivals hall with a name sign for transfers to Siem Reap town and the Angkor temple complex.
