HI,

I have read that the boat trip from Siem Reap to Battambang is worth doing.
Has anyone done this recently?

How long does it take?

Whats the best way to return to Siem Reap?

Can you suggest a place to stay in Battambang?

How long should one stay and what can one do there?

thanks,

priya

TRAIN FROM BATTAMBANG TO PP

Has anybody done the train from BB TO PP.
I believe it is a 14 hour marathon on hard seats. I also understand it only runs every other day, how do we find out in advance what days it is running????

Hi,

I will be going to Battambang in February, and I want to learn basic Khmer after my arrival so I can speak with the locals at least a little. Who knows of anyone in Battambang who can teach me a little of the Khmer language?

Thank you all!

flight Battambang to Phnom Penh
Posted: Mon September 29, 2003 09:00 PM UTC

According to my info two carriers have one flight daily to BBM to PNH. Did someone take that flight? Can't book seats or get info on their fares through e-mail (given on their websites apart from their schedules). (They just don't respond...!)
Easy to get seats in high season (January)? Who did book this flight and how? Only possible at their local office in Battambang maybe?

Thanks, Utan
