Ü have a great year ahead and we hope to see you soon! ron and monette hi meang!

How are you doing? Where are you now? Oh what a pitiful bus ride! I forgot which bus company we got for you. In such inconsistency of bus companies running from Siem Reap – Bangkok, I just cannot book seats for our guests anymore. It’s truly hard thing to do. In short, I really wished that the Siem Reap – Bangkok route would be free from such curse soon or else most people would choose to burn their hands and pocket/wallet! Even more, some might choose to empty their account at Banco de Oro, HSBC or RCBC.. We learnt good lessons! Have a great 2010! Regards Meang and the boys! Hello Ron & Monette!

Can't wait to hear more stories. Hi Nina

I left SR around 8am, arrived in Bangkok around 3pm. Not the cheapest option, but it's certainly faster than the 12 hour bus ride. …or you can go to Poipet via hired car (most likely a Toyota Camry), cross to Aranyaphratet on foot, take a tuktuk to the bus station, then ride the bus to Bangkok.
