Getting Around Phnom Penh


 

 

 

Although Phnom Penh's traffic is getting busier and more congested especially during the peak morning and evening hours, you can still move around Phnom Penh quite easily, travelling between tourist spots within 10 to 15 mins by car.

 

Tuk-tuks

Tuk-tuks are similar to the ones in Thailand, with a trailer carriage at the back. There are plenty everywhere, outside hotels, restaurants and tourists spots. For tourists, it can be between US$2 - US$3 for short rides (locals will just pay US$1) and between US$10 - US$15 for a whole day. Of course you have to bargain hard and the price usually varies depending on the number of passengers and the place where you flagged the tuk-tuk. There have been cases of snatch thefts from tuk-tuk so make sure your bags are not exposed and never leave your bags inside the tuk-tuk unattended.

Name of Tuk Tuk Driver: Mr Terry

No. +855 16-647 864 ; +855 12-828 945

(If you are using a local telephone SIM card, replace the country code '855' with '0'.

 

Motodup (Motorcycle taxi) and Cyclos

They are everywhere and for just US$6 - US$8 a day, they can get you anywhere within the city. This makes Phnom Penh quite accessible. if the vehicle looks old or not so road-worthy, don't take the risk as there have been accidents before. Again, be very careful with your bags!
