Entering Cambodia By Road
From Thailand: Enter at Poipet. Road to Siem Reap has improved, however a slow bus may take 12 hours.
From Vietnam: Enter at Moc Bai and Chao Doc. Bus available from Ho Chi Minh City. May take 5-6 hours to reach Phnom Penh. AsiaExplorers Advice We urge travellers entering Cambodia to fly. Those entering by road are often exposed to border scams. Get your visa ready or else you may face border officials who create their own border laws, charging you inflated price for visa, or charging you a fee for vaccination certs that are not mandatory.
Entering Cambodia By Boat
From Laos: Enter at Stung Treng along the Mekong River. AsiaExplorers Advice Visitors entering by boat are often exposed to scams from border officials who have easy money to "earn" a few extra dollars from tourists with no options. Don't put yourself in this position.
From Vietnam: Boat between Chau Doc (four hours by road from Ho Chi Minh City) and Phnom Penh available. Boat trip takes another 5 hours.
