Hi Guys, I'm heading to BKK at the end of this month and am looking to catch a side trip to Cambodia to see Angkor Wat and the like. Are there places that will do me an deal that includes airfare, hotel and tour guide (english speaking of course). Would I be better hitting one of the travel agents on, say Sukhumvit, or would I be better off heading over to Khao San for the backpacker deals? Any help appreciated.

By your Airline ticket in BKK,President air is the cheapest at the moment. Read the FR`s on out side Thailand,theres plenty there on accomodation and what to do and see. Tours,book them once you get into Phnom Penh. This should get you started. S05..

You'll get some very cheap prices on KSR but they usually mean very slow journeys in old buses with scams along the way to make you part with some extra baht. The traditional scam is for the bus to break down etc. so as by the time you arrive at Siem Reap it's late at night so they can deliver you to a guesthouse that pays the bus company a fee for having delivered you there. At 10pm or even later it's no fun trying to find alternative accomodation. Sometimes the guesthouse can be ok, but if it's not there isn't much you can do about it. I'd either do a proper more expensive tour arranged from a Sukhumvit travel agent or just travel solo by bus. Avoid the KSR buses at all cost. If you want to do it by yourself then have a read of the Cambodian Visa Run topic from a couple of days ago, which will at least give you some ideas about the Bangkok to the Thai border journey.

Thanks for the tips guys. I think I'm definately going to fly there so I guess it's just booking accomodation and a tour. I'm a bit releuctant to book once I get to PP as I like to have things sorted out prior to my arrival especially when visiting a country without the kind of infrastructure I'm used to, plus there's three of us. I guess I'll hit KSR and Suhumvit and see what I can get. Thanks

Hi Si, Just got back from Cambo. I bought a ticket in BKK and arrived in the morning with no hotel booked. Left the air port and on leaving the building there are a bunch of people who want to find you a hotel or ride. I took a moto who is part of the group that work at the airport (they wear blue jacket with a number) told him the price range I wanted and to be near downtown. Took me to a place that was 15 bucks and I was happy. Don't know if he got a kick back or not but didn't really care. Think the hotel was the moraka or something like that. Make sure to check out martini's bar and heart of darkness nightclub. bimmher
