Most people who take a Cambodia vacation will visit Ankor Historical Park. Ankor Wat and the surrounding temples are best visited at sunrise and in the early morning and late in the afternoon towards sunset. There are two reasons for this, the light creates a completely different atmosphere, and it is not so hot. Break up your day and avoid the heat of the sun. Your pass will be valid for as many visits as you wish to make - so get up early, and see the sites of Ankor before it gets to hot. Then, mid to late morning, come back to your hotel in Siem Riep and relax in the heat of the day. Later on, when the weather cools down, go back to the temples for sunset.

Just about everyone in Siem Riep is a "guide". Moto dops (motorbike taxis) will often tell you they are guides but just take you from point to point. Some guides from the guesthouses and hotels are very good - but be careful, many have no idea and make things up, and some just reel out dates and figures. A good guide book of the temples and history of Ankor, or a good Cambodia Vacation guide book will be very very useful for historical background and maps. After that, your own intuition is the best guide.
