Siem Reap to Phnom Penh by Private Car or Minivan (5h)

We decided to take a car rather than a plane from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh so we could see the countryside and not have to deal with yet another airport on our trip. It didn’t disappoint!! The car was well appointed and very comfortable, in particular the recliner leather seats. You couldn’t get this on a plane! Our driver was friendly, hospitable and practiced safe driving. A pleasant way to get from A to B.

I had the very best driver EVER! PISETH was not only very knowledgeable but also very entertaining! Very safe driver and was a great companion for a solo traveler! I would recommend PISETH to EVERYONE!!!

This was a lovely drive and a great way to see the countryside. If you take it to account the time it takes to get to the airport, wait for your plane, the possibility of delays, and getting from the airport to your hotel, this was actually shorter. Our driver, Mr. Daro, was friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. He shared information about the area and was able to answer questions that we asked. We are very happy with the decision to hire a car and highly recommend this drive and company.

Good way to see more of the country and how the locals live. Felt safe with this driver and car was clean and comfortable.

Although it’s a long trip it is more interesting than flying as Daryl gave us lots of information about the areas we were travelling through.

Our driver picked us up from hotel in Siem reap and took us directly to hotel in Phnom Penh with a couple of interesting stops in the way, lovely comfortable van and air conditioned. He provided water on the way and a snack.

The ride from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh was smooth by private cab. Last minute reservations were no problem and pickup was on time.

Our driver, Veth, was absolutely perfect. He was on time, helpful, and kind! He made sure we knew he would stop for anything at any time. He gave us helpful historic information about the country and answered all questions we had. We had an excellent lunch on the way and he provided water for the drive. Our 5 hour journey from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh was made delightful by our lovely guide and driver. Traveling with this company made our journey easy, safe, and fun :)

The driver was nice, the car was old but comfortable, and he drove safely. There were a few issues, though. He arrived about five minutes late for pickup without acknowledging it, but that’s no big deal. At the first stop he asked how long I wanted to stop for, and I said just 10 minutes for a bathroom break and drink. While I was doing that, he ordered lunch and walked around taking video selfies, and I waited in the car. He was very apologetic, but could have just said beforehand that he wanted a longer break. Before the trip, I asked to stop at Skun spider market. He said ok, but then stopped at a small roadside stall and told me that was it (I knew it wasn’t because I’d been there twice before). I had to show him where it was on Google Maps. Overall it was a safe and comfortable trip, but my suggestion is to not rely on the driver for communication, and be prepared to navigate for yourself.
