Phnom Penh to Champassak Destination Reviews

V
The trip from Phnom Penh to Don Det is long, but the logistics of pick up, vehicle changes during the trip and even the river boat transportation to Don Det is quite well coordinated by the company that provides the service. Actually, from the time you are picked up at your hotel in Phnom Penh, until you arrive at the port in Don Det, it takes more than the hours indicated in 12Go, in my case it was almost 12 hours in total including waiting time in restaurants, border crossings and transportation as such. I do not leave the 5 stars because it would be ideal if all drivers could communicate with foreigners in even basic English to make the experience easier and more pleasant. Although some of the various drivers I had on my tour spoke English, there was one who did not (who picked me up in Phnom Penh and dropped me off at a restaurant where you wait for the vehicle that takes you to the border where you leave Cambodia).
