Getting Around
AIR
As a result of the Open Skies Policy numerous airlines have added services to Cambodia. It is also possible to fly between the major towns within Cambodia.
TRAIN
Cambodia has two rail lines and if you want to travel around by train it is possible to do so in Cambodia, however the trains are extremely slow. The north-west line goes as far as Battambang, while the south-west line links Phnom Penh with Sihanoukville. Much of the rail network was destroyed during the civil war and at present service is irregular.
BUS
There is a basic road network, but bridges and roads are in a poor state of repair.
BOAT
The most popular route is between Siem Reap and Phnom Penh, and on an express boat this takes four hours.
WALKING
Phnom Penh is safe for walking during the day and it can be one of the best ways of getting to know the city unless you visit during summer when it is just too hot.
