Tuk-tuk

by maribelm

Para visitar los templos se puede alquilar una moto por unos 6-8 dolaresal dia, o un tuk-tuk que se puede alquilar por unos 12-14$, teniendo encuenta que para ir al templo mas lejano te incrementan la tarifa. Tambiense puede ir en coche aunque es algo mas caro. De Siem Reap a Phnom Penh, se puede ir por carretera, avion o barco.La manera que elegimos fue en barco (25 $), unas 5-6 horas de trayectoy desde donde puedes observar toda la vida alrededor del Tonle Sap. Aunquepuedes viajar en los asientos interiores, la mejor manera es elegir eltecho o la cubierta, eso si hay que tener la precaucion de llevarse gorroy buena protección solar.

Getting There

by keeweechic

By Air : There are direct flights to Phnom Penh from most neighbouring Asian countries. There are also 6 or 7 flights per day from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap which takes 40 mins and its free seating. Be prepared for a bag search at Siem Reap.By Road : You can also travel by road from Vietnam.By Rail : Rail in Cambodia is not recommended. Safer to fly to Siem Riep. You can rent chauffeur driven cars and are very cheap.

If you leave for Thailand...

by Juan_Gmo

If you leave for Thailand overland the best part (if not only) is through Poipet-Aranyathrapet. If leaving from Phnom Penh reach a pick up at the Central Market early in the morning and after a 13-hour-drive arrive in Poipet. Border is closed at 5:00 PM, you may not get there on time.From Siem Reap to Phnom Penh is worth taking the fast boat. Ankor and Phnom Penh are best travelled by motorcycle. It´s cheap! Don´t forget to invite your chauffer to eat.

by rm2co

I flew by Malaysian Airlines from Kuala Lumpur to Phnom Penh. Probably the most comfortable way of getting there!From Phnom Penh's Pochentong Airport, it costs US$5 by the airport taxi to get into Phnom Penh's city centre. Between Phnom Penh and Siem Reap, express boats were used (US$25 one way). Some guest houses can get you the tickets for about US$22-23. Only 1 service daily, which leaves at 7.00am from the jetty south of the Japanese Friendship bridge. Takes about 4-5 hours to get you from Phnom Penh to a floating pier on Tonle Sap Lake. From that pier, you will be hassled by touts from the numerous guest houses. Pick one and follow him. You will then transfer onto smaller boats for a short 5 minute ride to a 'jetty' of sorts, consisting of 2 planks, in the midst of a stinking fishing village (see picture). Thereafter, transfer to motorbikes for a 20 minute ride into Siem Reap. The...

by FrodeK

I went to Siem Reap from Bangkok. I stayed at Khao San road, this street is full of travel agencies. I payed about 1000 baht for the visa, and 150 baht for the bus. I heard people paying in the range of 100 baht up to 350 for the bus. So you should shop around...then again it's really ridiculously cheap anyway. We had a van from Khao San to the border Poipet. It took about 6 hours, 350 kilometers. One stop on the way for food. Then at the border we were met by two guys from Cambodia. They led us through passportcontrols and to a guesthouse were we waited for 1 hour. From there we got into a new van/minibus and drove for another 6 hours, 150 kilometers. The roads are bad! With two stops one for food and one to make sure we got to Siem Reap after dark. The price of the bus is this cheap because they stop at certain restaurants on the way and they take you to a certain guesthouse....

by mikinho

Air plane from Saigon was something like $75 I think (I may remember wrong). The bus going from Kim Cafe in Saigon is something like $10 or $15. When I was there, there was also a new road - by boat combined with a Vietnam Mekong trip. It was very new, though, so don't know if it took up.Make sure your motorbike taxi understand where you want to go. As they want the deal, they will say 'yes' to anything, then will drive around town for hours as they really didn't understand a word. They will still want you to pay them even if they drop you out in the blue. The problem is not willingness, it's English. Writing the address down doesn't help as they usually can't read. Try to stick to very simple terms which they will know. Don't say 'river front', say 'FCC' - that's the French Correspondant Club on the river front, and this they will understand.I like bicycle, so I rent one at the Capitol...

by yeikloen

There are some tour agent in Khoa San road giving real good deals from Bangkok to Siem Reap for as low as 150bt.Or you can do your own way by taking a bus from Northen Eastern(ground floor - northern) Bus Station in Bangkok to Aranyeprathet. Take a 'TukTuk' about 30bt to the border about 3km away. Walk across the border and walk out to the main roundabout where you can find van park to Siem Reap. Becareful of kids approching you...!!!And you can take a ferry (mind you that ferry means speed boat without roof) to Battambang which is a very scenic journey across the Tonle Sap lake, Vietnamese Floating Village, and boat people along the river to Battambang for USD12There are Bike, Moto-Taxi, Taxi and Van. We took Moto-Taxi for 3 days travelling around Angkor for USD10per day (2 person). The only bad thing is, it was slow...:).

by bagan

What about this antique Antonov Turbolev of Presidential Airlines or Phnom Penh Airways connecting Phnom Penh to Ratanakiri? So dirty and battered that up to this time I cannot believe that it's really flown. The impressive advertising leaflet reported: our flights are the mark of safety, because we tried our aircrafts for numberless hours...After all is the only mean to reach the enchanting Ratanakiri region.

by bagan

Getting to/from Phnom Penh from Siem Reap by boat, you will arrive at destination really exhausted. In fact prepare you to stay 4/5 hours seated on the metal top of the speedy boat, with no mat, maybe wet from river water and sure deaf at destination if dont bring with you earplugs... But you can also admire the river villages life.
