OK service but be careful, they have 2 bus stations in Pnom Penh and 12GoAsia only shows one of them on their map (the central one). Apparently our bus departed from the other station (near the airport) so we had to get up earlier & take a 45 minute tuctuc in order to catch the bus in time. The bus was also 30 minutes late, by the way.

The vehicle was old and vibrated all the way there. Which I suspect was an alignment problem or a crooked wheel. We never went over 70. He was keeping it at 60 65 to save gas. He spent more time looking at his phone and emails. Then looking at the road. He had to put the brakes on twice very hard because he didn't notice the traffic in front of him. This is my fourth time using 12 go. And every time I use it in Cambodia. It is not good when I use it in thailand the vehicles are new clean, not like here in cambodia

FABULOUS. Great airconditioning. Comfortable seat. They gave us a free sandwich, free water, and free hot coffee. The seatbelts worked and there was a working toilet on board. On the way back when I was waiting for the return trip I dropped 20,000 riel. The staff picked it up and handed it to me. Super honest. The stop in Sihanoukville is a little way from the ferry station. But the Grab only cost 6,900 riel. Also the office next to Vet in Sihanoukville sells ferry fares. So if you want to go straight to the islands you can arrange it there. Very seamless.

Train

Train is a often a great choice for long-haul travel especially if you opt for a night sleeper train with berths which will allow you to sleep all your journey through. To make the most of your train journey, choose the class of your ticket wisely.

Note that there are air-conditioned and fan-only carriages; private compartments for 2 or 4; hard and soft seats.
Though the upper class you get the smoother is your journey, often second class air-conditioned or fan-only sleepers are a good money saving alternative.

Van

Vans are a great alternative - or, in many cases - your only option - if you need to travel overland within one and the same province or neighbouring provinces or states. Vans ply the roads between Phnom Penh and Sihanoukville, too.

Things to remember: When travelling by van with huge luggage buying a separate seat for your suitcase or backpack is a good idea. Do not expect there is a roomy luggage compartment in a van - there is actually none and your fellow passengers are unlikely to appreciate your luggage stuck under their feet, alas.
