Siem Reap to Koh Rong Destination Reviews

DA

We traveled from Siem Reap to Koh Rong a few days ago and can really recommend Garuda. Originally we booked the trip with departure at 07:00 am / arrival at 07:00 pm but Garuda quickly messaged us via WhatsApp that there’s actually no space available anymore. Which is why they offered us to leave at 11 pm and take a sleeper bus to Phnom Penh and then switch to a mini van for the last leg to Koh Rong. We agreed to this. They picked us up at our hotel in Siem Reap with a TukTuk and drove us to the bus terminal. The sleeper bus was quite comfortable and we managed to sleep pretty well. Side note: The transport was actually carried out by another company but no issues here. We then arrived at 05:30 am in Phnom Penh and had just a quick 1 hour layover and then switched to the mini bus at 06:30 am. Then finally arrived at Koh Rong Island around 11:00 am after taking the ferry. To sum it up, everything went smoothly and we would book with Garuda again.

Nothing bad to say about the journey, just if you are coming to koh rong, they will drop you off at a bus station near the port rather than at the port, there are some tuk tuk drivers that will try get you to go with them and they make it sound like they work for the company when they do not, the company runs its own shuttle service which is included in the ticket, so use that to save yourself a couple dollars

If you are lucky enough to get it, you may have more space and definitely a better view there. Similarly, in some vans seats in the back row may be a disappointment as they do not recline due to the trunk filled with travellers’ luggage.

Travelling by van essentials

  • Ensure to check carefully from where your van departs. In many cases vans are stationed not at the city main bus station but elsewhere. Individual van operators may have their own van stops located anywhere, and one and the same operator may sell tickets to their vans from different stops. If you are planning a bus-van connection, be sure you understand where to catch your van as it is easy to assume that vans leave from the same station where buses arrive. No, it is not necessarily so!
  • There are different types of vans accommodating from 9 to 15 or more passengers. While on certain routes you have no alternative, on others you can choose. The rule of thumb – fewer seats mean more leg space and more comfort. As well as more money for your ticket. But this is probably the case when it is worth investing into your seat a bit more.
  • Vans accommodating more passengers are often cramped and do not provide any additional space for your luggage. In many cases your ticket will include only one piece of luggage, often with limited weight. If you travel with huge suitcases or backpacks you may want – or even need – to buy an extra seat for your luggage. Before booking an extra seat for your luggage though do check with the operator if they allow it. If you did buy a separate seat for your luggage, and the driver during the way tries to pick up an extra passenger to put on a “vacant” seat, insist on right to use it as you paid for it.
  • There are obviously no on board toilets in vans but if your journey lasts over two or three hours there will normally be one or more bathroom stop(s) enroute. During the bathroom stop, take a note of your van number plate when you get off. It will make it easier for you to find the van among similar vehicles and in an unhappy case (hypothetically!) of van leaving without you, you can at least report it to the operator.
  • Van drivers are notorious for their driving style. Though many companies enforce strict speed limits on their vehicles they are often not observed. This is probably a major downside of van travel in some countries. Anyway, if speed limits are violated do not be shy to ask the driver to go slower. Normally there will be an information plate with the telephone numbers to call if your driver violates traffic rules – report each such case without hesitation. Also, do leave your review if not satisfied with the service to warn other travellers.
  • It is compulsory to use belts for all the van passengers. Even if your driver does not insist on it, use the belt for your own safety. Belts are sometimes fixed behind your seat – do not hesitate to release them and use as they are intended to be used.
  • Many vans do not have scheduled departures but depart when full. Sometimes waiting periods can be long, especially if you happen to come immediately after the previous van has departed or just in the end of the day when there are not so many passengers. Always make sure you understand whether your ticket is for a scheduled trip or otherwise. Normally operators who allow online booking of their tickets, provide scheduled service meaning your van will depart on time no matter how many passengers show up for the trip.
