Getting There

• Car

  If you're driving, start from the center of Siem Reap. Head south on Sivatha Road towards National Road 6. Continue straight for about 1 km until you reach the junction with Street 1. Turn right onto Street 1 and follow the road for about 500 meters. Then, take a left onto Chantiers-Ecoles Street. Artisans Angkor will be on your left after about 300 meters. Parking is available nearby, but be aware that some locations may charge a small fee.

• Tuk-Tuk

  For a traditional Cambodian experience, hire a tuk-tuk from your hotel or any tuk-tuk stand. Simply tell the driver you want to go to Artisans Angkor, located on Chantiers-Ecoles Street in Krong Siem Reap. The ride should take around 10-15 minutes depending on traffic, costing approximately $2-$5, depending on your negotiation skills and distance from your starting point.
