It didn't take long, on arrival at Siam Reap airport, to find a helpful taxi driver, asking only $1 fare to the hotel. In return for the modest fare I arranged for him to be my driver the following day. He arranged for a very informed young guide, both spoke good English. For $20 each they gave me a comprehensive and enjoyable tour of a fascinating area. Off season June.

A car with driver can be rented for US$20/day and there are extremely knowledgable guides to take you around the temples.

The trip to Phnom Kulen is not really worth the price of the $20us entrance fee and the extra $20us for the car.

There is a restaurant just on the other side of the river (forgot the name, a terrace, green chairs I believe, they had 2 houses), very nice food, their local food was very good and beautifully presented, and they serve a lot of pizzas, beer was cold. We visited ... temples of course.

Angkor Wat is an excellent destination. Take at least 3 days, that gives you enough time to see what you have to see and to take some rest during the day. Too much information in a day is no holiday!
From the town you can choose to be driven around by car, with or without guide, motor cycle riksja, or you can rent a bicycle, also very practical and a nice area to cycle, park like environment, not too much trafic.
I can recommend to take a guide at least one day, otherwise you really miss something,

Angkor is definitely worth seeing. Fantastic. We hired a car for the day. It was only $25. It was perfect. We visited Angkor in the morning, then went off and had some lunch and returned for the sunset. I'd definitely recommend it. Be prepared to be hassled by lots of kids at Angkor.

There are lots of guides and taxis that are willing to take you to the temples. The guide charges about USD20 and the taxi driver about USD15. It is useful to have a guide as they will tell you the history and meanings of the temple. However, the kids are always too overly keen to make you buy something from them.
