oops, i lost track of the season there. didn't realize it's wet season now things change when you are no longer there, huh?
Try to avoid all water transport during rainy seasons. Pretty extreme season there. Dry until sand everywhere by the road, and when it rains....
the photo should show. and trust me when i say the rivers roar 75% of the time when it rains
and i agree with duckhole. taxi is the best over there if u do not know how to speak their language or dun look like them. they love to chop us off. Luckily for us, i had a stepcousin who looks like a local (coz she's half Cambodian) and a stepmum who really can argue and speak their language. somewhat well-known around the tuk tuk drivers there alredi

Taxi cheaper than tuktuk? 

raining season now....

this was yesterday. rain 1 hour already like that... rain continue for another 3 hour, whole town was flooded.



i am living in cambodia for the past 5 years already, some of the things people tell you here are over exaggerated but yes there are shitty times.

taxi is cheaper than tuk tuks for sure, they go on meters, all of them.

tuk tuk will chop you at every opportunity possible.

if in phnom penh can take taxi to the places of interest, not expensive and 24 hours.

some hotels are shitty and some are cheap and good, depend on which hotel you stay.

how many days will you be in phnom penh? if i am free might be able to bring you to some places to eat.

look at it this way la: local taxi here, some chop tourists off, some are really honest
over there: chop = tuk tuks, honest: taxi's

Any good place to cheong?

Oh ok... but if short distance, taxi cheaper or tuktuk cheaper? 
Where indeed? 

depends....some tuk tuks will chop u off still coz u r a tourist, some will just charge cheap coz it's so near.
i still recommend tuk tuks tho. The taxi use US dollars for meter.

Wait, so I can bring riel also?

Any good place to cheong?

Oh ok... but if short distance, taxi cheaper or tuktuk cheaper? 
Where indeed? 

short distance taxi also cheaper, taxi charge $1 -2 only for short distance.

tuk tuk see you tourist, they want at least $5

got many places to cheong lo, several places i usually bring my friends go when they do come visit

Meh, I will just rent a scooter then, but I heard they don't provide helmet 

The weather is very hot. Don't eat the food at the hawker or stalls.
Couldn't also trust their bottled water, because it might have contaminated.
Last time I went there, I had diarrhea. But maybe it was just me because the other people in that group seems ok.

If you're muslim, there are few halal restaurant operated by the malay.
But still their food taste weird. I almost havent got the appetite to eat anything there.

have la. but can buy own for $2-5 also have,

its hot ... do wear goretex material
dont forget to try cambodian pizza yo

get ur hotel to hire the taxi for u...usually the hotel will make sure u won't get cheated.

these "taxis" don't have the taxi sign on them.

i will visit siem reap this coming sunday wif gf. i hire a local tour guide to bring us around. hopefully things turn up alright >.<

I just back from Siem Reap last saturday. Trip was awesome but the weather very hot in the afternoon. Sky was clear in the mornings and usually showers/cloudy in the evening. Managed to catch nice sunrise on all 5 days when i was there.

Oh if you're planning to go to The Haven, please make booking ahead. It was fully booked 2days when i went there. Food there was awesome 

Not going there for fine dining, but could check it out when I am there  

How many days?

i rather hv surcharge than to hire those taxis outside..who knows, after ward they kidnap you to somewhere.

It's not fine dining, just a restaurant. Foods are at reasonable prices. Try the Amok, it was very good. The pumpkin burger is damn good as well 

You can check out the price here http://www.havencambodia.com/en/menu/our-menu/

4 days 3 nites
just worry bout foods though as my gf tummy is very sensitive

What's goretex? 

Where can I find this delicious cambodian pizza?   
Hotels got 'surcharge' one.. 
How many days?
Not going there for fine dining, but could check it out when I am there
