Hey,

Anyone know how to go about taking a boat across Cambodia and then getting cheaply to Bangkok? I'll arrive in Phnom Penh by bus from Saigon. There might be a travel agency at the station, but I'm not sure so any help vastly appreciated!

thanks.

I'm sure the Tales of Asia guru has some advice.

Boats leaving Phnom Penh go North to Siem Reap or south to Vietnam. You can take a bus from Phnom Penh to Bangkok or a bus from Siem Reap to Bangkok. You could also make your way from Phnom Penh to Shihanokville, then north ( I think by boat ) and cross into Thailand at Koh Kong.

You can take the bus from Phnom Penh to Bangkok, via poipet.

Ticket is $14 one way and you can buy it at the main station near central market. Ride is about 15 hours, barring any breakdowns or flats, which are pretty common.

I just came across a post in a different topic referring to www.seat61.com and it looks really informative - buses trains and ferries....
