BY
ROAD
From Battambang -
National Routes 5 and 6 (approx 185km). The road between Sisophon and Battambang is in good condition, however the road
between Sisophon and Siem Reap is in poor condition. A private taxi costs between $30-$35 and takes between 3-5 hours
From Phnom Penh - The road between Phnom Penh and Siem Reap is paved all the way and in good condition. There are several
bus companies offering services departing between 6.30am - 12.30pm daily. Tickets cost approximately $4-$5
BY BOAT
From Battambang - Two operators run boats from Spean Thmei Bridge (opposite the hospital), departing daily at 7am, at
a cost of $15 per person. The journey takes between 3-4 hours (but can take longer in the dry season due to low water) travelling
up the the Sangher River before crossing the very picturesque Tonle Sap Lake. The boats do not meet international safety standards,
however (for the brave) the best seat in the 'house' is definitely on the roof! The boat arrives at Siem Reap Ferry
Dock, located 12km south of the town centre, at Chong Khneas. Taxis are always available to take you the 20 minute ride
into town at a cost of $5-$6
From Phnom Penh - The service between
Phnom Penh and Siem Reap no longer operates
