This business is nothing to do with me, just thought the video looked cool.


Don't think it's been posted here before ? The firm is called Microlight Cambodia.
Great reviews on TA: https://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_ ... vince.html

Yes I did a flight on my last trip to Siem Reap two months ago. It was excellent. You get a much better sense of the temples and surrounding countryside from the air. Great fun.

If the cost is still a mere $60, the experience is worth every cent - 120 cans of 50-cent beer forgone.

How long in the air?

The woman insists she was aloft for 30 mins so then it was $2/minute - the price may have changed

Seems good deal. Would love to put my GF in second seat. Never flown before. Shes viewed vids I made from Bell Helos over Fl. Keys & is game. This is much, much cheaper than a helo flight.

Thanks for the connect. Will pursue.

My guess is she will have both hands tightly on pilot & both eyes closed tight.

I think it's now $125 for 30 minutes booked direct. Or $90 for 20 minutes.
30 minutes gets you to Angkor Wat and back plus several other smaller temples. The shorter flight gives you a tour of the nearby countryside.
