Experience Cambodia’s countryside and waterways on this unique combination boat + bus journey between Phnom Penh and Siem Reap.
Your trip begins with an express speed-boat ride from Phnom Penh up the Tonlé Sap River toward Kampong Chhnang. Enjoy peaceful river scenes — floating villages, fishermen at work, and the daily life of riverside communities.
