How to Get From Preah Vihear to Siem Reap

Preah Vihear is a province in Cambodia that stretches all way between the towns of Siem Reap to the west and Stung Treng to the east. The province is famous for its Prasat Preah Vihear, a Khmer temple perched atop a 525-meter cliff in the Dangrek Mountains that boasts stunning architectural designs and has been a bone of contention between Cambodia and Thailand for a long period of time.

Buses from Preah Vihear to Siem Reap

There are numerous advantages of traveling around Cambodia by bus. Buses offer comfortable seats, more legroom and ample space for your luggage. Though crowded, they are the preferred means of transport when you have to make a long journey of over eight hours. Unfortunately, there are no commercial buses that leave Preah Vihear for Siem Reap. However, do not despair because minivans ply this route each day.

The company provides 12-person vans that leave Preah Vihear for Siem Reap each day at 4.00pm. Though the minivans do not have toilets on board, they come with air conditioning which helps make the close to three-hour drive bearable. Tickets from Preah Vihear to Siem Reap go for USD12 per person. If you have large luggage, consider paying for an extra seat because Asia Van Transfer minivans do not have room for large pieces of luggage.

It is important to note that:
Ticket confirmation is manual and can take up to 24 hours.
Asia Van Transfer does not accept cancellations or offer refunds, therefore, ensure that you check-in at least 20 minutes before your departure time to avoid any inconvenience.
