Otherwise they arrange a private taxi so you can go. The loundry service is a little expensive so better wash your clothes somewhere elke when you want to save money ($2 a kilo)

Siem Reap to Sihanouksville and Boat to Koh Rong

Siem Reap is a nice place to go, from there you can easy take busses to other places like Bangkok Phnom Pehn, Sihanoukville and Kompot.

I took the nightbus (depart at 19.00) from Siem Reap to Sihanoukville. It is an 12 hours drive on bumpy roads and the beds are not that big. But I heard a tip. Just eat a small happy pizza before you go and you’ll sleep like a baby.

When you’re arrived in Sihanoukville there you have to go to Serendipity street. Thats the place where the boats depart to Koh Rong. When you get out of the bus there will be tuktuks ($4) motor taxi’s ($2) or guys who want to sell you a boat tickets and bring you for free to the boat. (you will arrive at 7.00) the first boat departs at 8.00.

Sunrise Angkor Wat Temple

In Siem Reap you can rent a tuk tuk from 4.30 till at least 14.00 for $20. When you’ve a tree day ticket it’s a nice option to rent the Tuk Tuk the second day. Wake up early see the sunset have breakfast and visit the temples when it’s not that hot yet. We did the big temple round tour (big loop) skiped two temples to see the Tomb Raider temple.(normaly in the small loop).
