These tours use public bus services between Bangkok and Siem Reap. The road is very poor and during the rainy season in particular (May - September), the journey can be arduous and we use pick-up trucks. Although many travellers enjoy this \'jolting\' introduction to Cambodia, others prefer to fly between Bangkok to Siem Reap instead. Please see the tour dossier for more details.Itineraries
