Don't miss out! - Better than most U.S. Aquariums

Hands down the best thing to do in Siem Reap. A hidden gem outside of the city. I arrived by motor bike but you can also tuktuk or car here. A huge variety of species both from Cambodia and elsewhere. They support bringing back endanger species of the area with funckyioning breeding programs. I ended up on a guided tour and I HIGHLY recommend it. Our aquarium provided tour guide, Yet knew everything to know about the animals, history and facility. Admission is 20 USD for foreigners. Spent about 2 to 3 hours here but you could make it an all day thing.

I had a fantastic experience with the guide, Yet. He's a very passionate, kind, and funny person. The animal conservation center is amazing; I especially loved the aquarium with all the fish and new species. I learned so much, and it's a wonderful memory.

Great experience. Our travel agent suggested this activity. To be honest I had low expectations, but were so glad we came here! The kids loved it, a wide array of land and sea animals. It was modern and very clean. The organization itself is admirable with its conservation efforts. Guide was knowledgeable, friendly and great with kids. 10/10 experience.
