Bangkok-Siem Reap-Phnom Penh-Ho Chi Minh City by Train, Boat, Bicycle, and Bus
I am gradually working my way round Asia, and have cycled in 7 countries so far (China, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, and Hong Kong). So where next? I had been thinking for a while about Vietnam and Cambodia.
I signed up for a Mountain bike tour from Siem Reap through Cambodia, and through the Mekong Delta to Ho Chi Minh City.

| Train from Bangkok to Thai Border at Aranyaprathet (260kms); Tuk Tuk to Thai Border (3kms); Walk across border to Poipet, Cambodia (1Km); Shared Taxi to Siem Reap (151kms) A cycling route for a future trip is a popular one from Bangkok along the South Thailand coast past Pattaya, Rayong, and Chanthaburi crossing into Cambodia near Pailin, and on to Battambang. From Battambang you can take a boat by river and across the Lake to Siem Reap. A few of the cycling tour group on this trip had done this journey. |
