Wioleta CBest company in Cambodia and very professional. The bus leaves on time, the staff is very kind and helpful, informs about all the details while crossing the border and speaks English well. There were snacks and water provided on the bus, and the night buses have pillows and blankets. They even found a small device that I left on the bus and returned it to me! I will definitely use again.

Jordi MGiant Ibis gave a very good service overall. Bus departed on time. The only complaint would be that the AC was broken. So we had to drive with the windows open.

Andrea LWe've travelled in the night bus from siem reap to Kampot and from Kampot to Phnom Penh. Both times the bus was on time, the staff super friendly and the service outstanding. For us the beds were too hard and too short (I'm just 1,70 m but could feel top and bottom) but it was okay for one night. Driving also was both times very good, felt safe!
