Count more or less 100 bath if coming from Khao San Road.<BR/><BR/>2) Ground floor of the station, find the desk for buses to Aranya Prathet. Buy the ticket for 215 bath.<BR/><BR/>3) Take the bus at 7am, many stops to eat so no need to bring water or food.<BR/><BR/>4) Get of at Aranya, last stop.<BR/><BR/>5) Tuk tuk to the border for a fixed price of 60 bath. Dont let the tuk tuk driver stop you at the fake immigration office where they will ask you for a lot of money. Tell him to go straigth to the border.<BR/><BR/>6) Buy your VISA for 20 USD qnd nothing more!<BR/><BR/>7) Cross the border<BR/><BR/>8) Find the free bus to the tqxi station. On the bus find other people willing to share the taxi to Siem Reap.<BR/><BR/>9) Get off at the bus station and with you newly found travellers companions bargain on the price of the taxi. For ne it was 60 dollars for 4 persons. The taxi will stop on the road to buy water and food.<BR/><BR/>10) Stop in Siem Reap and take a tuk tuk to Psar Chaa. Do not go sleep in the guesthouses or N6. Just beside Psar Chaa there are so,e good guesthouses and in the evening it is lively.<BR/><BR/>11) Spend at least three days. Rent a bike for at least one day and go in the countryside.<BR/><BR/>Enjoy!!!<BR/>Carlo<BR/><BR/>PS Please leave updates if you know better.Carlohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10956618776616706313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3600792777501908823.post-21452027853732660282008-04-24T23:50:00.000-07:002008-04-24T23:50:00.000-07:00Bin sur, Julie!
