Laura AVery smooth journey from Siem Reap to Sihanoukville. Pick up and drop off points were exactly as indicated on the pdf. We left on time. Driver stopped multiple times along the way for food and toilet breaks. The minibus was spacious and comfortable. Only downside was the break in Phnom Penh: my bags were taken out of the van, and it took a little while to get clarity on when and where I was supposed to get on again. We also arrived approx 1.5 hours behind the advertised schedule.

Daniel Since I was 5 minutes late I received the worst spot in the van; the front middle seat. I am rather tall (1.9m) so my legs did not fit properly. Had to force my knees away from the shiftstick the whole ride. Horrible. Said in the instructions lunch would be served on the trip. No lunch. Then when we were on the highway 90 minutes away from the destination, the car broke down. Had to sit in the heat on the highway side for a couple of hours before another buss arrived to pick us up. Driver was nice and talented though. In the future, try to leave the front middle seat empty if possible.

On certain routes, vans are your only choice of transportation as no buses, trains or flights are available between those destinations.
It is a popular question whether it is necessary to book van tickets in advance. Though some routes feature a lot of departures, we still highly recommend booking your seat especially if you are going to take one of the last vans of the day; travelling during weekends, public holidays or busy tourist seasons; are in a group of two or more and want to travel on the same van.

Just like taxis, the advantage of travelling by van is that you can ask the driver to stop by stores, supermarkets and other establishments. You can stop anywhere at any time since you are basically renting the van and not just paying for taxi fare.

Vans are especially useful when travelling with large and sensitive equipment like photography setups and large computers. Trunks and compartments might not be a safe holding area for fragile packages. Placing them inside the roomy and well-padded interior of van will make it more secure and safe.
