Cambodia is being called Scambodia for some reasons. Every time you cross border to Cambodia, when the imm officer return your passport, make sure they actually stamped. Because there will be cops waiting for you in the next checkpoints to ask to see the visa stamp on your passport and you will end up paying lots of money because the imm officer intentionally did not put a stamp on it.

You have to be extremely careful that they properly stamp your passports on the way back into Thailand, because they often don't do that properly on purpose to make you have to come back through the Cambodian Border to pay even more bribes to get through that so that you can then use your passports in Thailand to get back onto planes going elsewhere. They actually did that to my wife, who is Thai. They messed her up bad as they said she was not in Thailand, when she was in Thailand for almost a year before we discovered that they had done that to her and we had to go back to the Cambodian Border and they wanted her to pay a huge fine, when it was all their fault. Luckily, my wife's cousin is a police chief in the Korat area and he got on the phone and made the border police fix that for her without a fine.

@Enjay_1981 6 месяцев назад

You just have to go with a travel company. We went with TravelMart and they took us through the border smoothly. We had a local help us through customs and it was so stressful free. My Cambodian experience was so different. I found it to be a lovely country with very friendly people. Just be friendly and firm and they will respect you. Just walk away and don’t engage if you aren’t interested and they will leave you alone. Also remember getting ripped off in Cambodia is like getting ripped off by $1 or even cents. So don’t sweat getting ripped off it’s so cheap!

@IvorsTravels Год назад

A long and tiring day. Not sure I could be so patient as you were nowadays. It was really interesting to see how things operate at the border. I have run such gauntlets many times in the past and have just taken it as part of the trip. Now I am considerably older and do not have the energy of younger days. It happens.

@bkk3919 Год назад

I’m Thai. Many years ago, my sister and I got bad experience at Siem Reap Airport. We slept on the airplane, therefore we both didn’t get Cambodia immigration cards. We knew that we haven’t had immigration cards while we were in queue. We requested for the immigration form, but the immigration staff told us that we had to pay 200 THB each for immigration form. It’s terrible. It’s my first impression. The trip is my first trip and last trip as well. This is a Cambodia way to welcome guests !!

@OTWD_yt Год назад

The first Impressions of Cambodia are bad asking for bribes so you can enter the country it’s so boring needs to be addressed or there lose tourism forever

@wrightst8 Год назад

Good review guys! I've been through that border a few times over the years, but only in the other direction. The main problem being no main bus station in Poipet. Buses from Siem Reap etc drop off passengers at their own offices which are a lot further along the main road heading towards SR. This is why you get hassled with private taxis before reaching the bus offices. It may become easier if they finally run trains to Poipet but this is no use for SR as the line runs to PP via Battambang only. As others have said, if you want to go from Bangkok TO Siem Reap easily - fly. Cheers!

@nop9753 Год назад

In Poipet Also Have Bus Station Name Virak Buntham And Also Have Train Station With A Nice Price More Comfortable Than Bangkok 🤩🤩🤩

@henrylawson938 Год назад

Good comment from the person above. Yes the best option is to fly. Poipet can be a real hassle. And according to a Thai Legal Service if you are doing a border run from Thailand back to Thailand, better to do it through an agent because it's easier for them to process you as they know your coming, and don't have deal with someone just winging it. Thai immigration at Poipet can be frustrating or worse depending on the day.

Would definitely fly in future land boarder are stressful 😂

Listen to me. I live in Cambodia. Here's a tip for everyone who reads this. Always fly into Cambodia. The border crossings are notorious for scams and bribes. I never have and never will take a border crossing. I always fly in. You will save yourself a lot of time, stress, and heartache. But if you choose to ignore this advice, and try to save a few dollars on a border crossing, you will regret it.

@wileyumstead9236 Год назад

I have been living in the cities of (Krong) Battambang and Krong Poi Pet for 8 years. Most busses are in the morning and possibly a bus or two a no later than 2 pm. The reason for this is most of the busses go to Phnom Penh which is a 12 to 15 hr bus ride. If you take a bus to Sim Reap you will most likely have to transfer to another bus at Sisophon. Taking a taxi is close to the same cost as taking the bus. Just so you understand the sounds of words ph is not a f sound it is p(uh), sh is s(uh) ch is c(uh) and chh is ch(uh). And yes most of the busses are 2 or 3 km from the border. They were trying to set up central station off of the main rd. I'm not sure if that worked. Most of the busses are independently owned and operated by small companies. Part of the problem of telling were something is in Poi Pet is that most of the rds do not have names or numbers. Every city is different that way. On google maps is The Pizza Company, if you have walked that far you have walked past most of the buss stations.

@iang4338 Год назад

Just stumbled across your video and loved it. My wife and I did the exact same journey on October 28th, what day did you cross, may have just missed you. The fun did start at the border. Lots of people hassled us. The shuttle bus was not clear at all. We waited for a few minutes at the same place as you. We thought we were getting a legit taxi because we asked a cop. Instead a 20yr old Dodge Caravan showed up with seats that were fully reclined and wouldn't stay up lol. Agreed on $40 to Siem Reap, we didn't want to share. (I read on line $40 was the price for a taxi). I followed the journey on Google Maps. About 5 miles out I showed the driver the route to our hotel, he said the cop had arranged a tuk tuk driver to take us from some point in Siem Reap. Another scam. We insisted he take us to the hotel, and I gave him another $5. He did it but was worried he would be in trouble with the cop who he had to pay anyway. Shame really, Cambodian people otherwise couldn't have been nicer to us. Thanks for posting and letting us re live our trip.

Thank you so much for visiting my country. I am sorry for what you have to go through. Especially with the heat lol. You guys def a true backpacker haha taking trains and everything. 2. The police officer actually tried to help you, and his English might’ve not been the best but he was actually a tourist police especially in that uniform, they actually take the oat to do the right things haha. The taxi guy was asking the officer to tell you that he could take you there. 3. The taxi that cost you 20 bucks, you could’ve took that car when the police stopped you and it could’ve been cheaper or the same.. and it would’ve been private car. I think it’s just the language barrier. All in all thank you and I’m sorry for the experience.

I'm Thai and even myself would hire a personal tour guide to sightsee Cambodia. There are many amazing places to see but Cambodia's public transportation is still a hassle to figure out. Your time and safety is valuable as well. I like to support the local tour guide especially young people they need money too plus they can speak English. Here's what I recommend, the most budget friendly way is purchasing a tour package out from Thailand, only $300 for 3 days will include plane tickets, hotels, food, and about everything. If you want to stay for a week or so you should just go directly into the big city (by plane, train or bus but you need to plan ahead of time) and need to book the first hotel ahead of time. From there you should find a lot of options to get around the city and connect to some local tour guides. I did this option in China and most places that I traveled on my own and worked really well for me.

@elmirafavela3463 Год назад

💘💘You should have to make up your mind if you are going to visit Cambodia, Vietnam or Laos. You must be very careful with scammers. It's not like you travel in Thailand because Thailand is already prosperous, problems rarely occur and the laws of Thailand, they provide protection to tourists and more strict. Thai people have a good conscience towards tourists in general. And have goodwill he definiely won't do that. But if you go to a neighboring country, you have to keep in mind that it's not like in Europe because of prosperity and psychological development is different. You have to risk what you will encountered such as Thieves, Gangs, Hoarders, Scammers, Beggars, Hijackers, Robbery, Black Taxis, Minibuses, Chartered cars that like to deceive a lot of money. 🙏🙏 An immigration checkpoint that tricks tourists into money. Do it as a process and systematically. These people are ready to deceive you have to be more careful.

I went from Bangkok to SR a few years back on a Giant Ibis bus which was a little more expensive than others but they guided the passengers through the Poipet border quite well. It helps to do some online research of the feedback about the various bus companies. We left Bangkok around 6am and reached SR before dark. It was also helpful to have our hotel arrange a tuk tuk to pick us up at the Siem Reap bus depot on the outskirts of town.

Also warning from Thai boy who send me to the border said to me to keep it in mind. "Don't let anyone come close to you and say no in all situations. I've got similar situations like you guys but not that worst. They tryin to trick you every single step you get out of the hotel.

I have a mixed feeling on watching this video. It looks like your western look makes you seen by people as an unprotected walking money bag, it must've been an uneasy feeling for you when walking in the streets there. But the people don't look really hopeless, they maybe just too little educated, they're struggling for their own better living. The conservative Cambodians are so proud of their past Khmer empire and still don't aware the underdevelopment despite a passed millennium of declination. Their corrupted politicians can still "drug" them with the old-time greatness in their greatly decorated history. The new blood Cambodians who got the better education are their hope. They're very potential people. I believe one day when the country get the proper education level the country will be a pleasant place to live and a travel destination.

Easiest way by far is to take the direct bus from Bangkok to Siem Reap (or vice versa) unless you are coming from / going to some other part of the country. I’ve crossed Poipet several times and the shuttle hustle has stayed exactly the same for decades. It’s also possible to find a private taxi to Siem Reap after crossing but it takes some determination to walk far enough until you reach a zone where taxi drivers can take passengers and it will still cost almost the same as the bus (paid $30 ten years ago don’t know how much it would be now but shouldn’t be much more). To my knowledge the local bus runs only in mornings (for some “odd” reason).
