Thanks for sharing your experience. I was having a hard time applying for the evisa because I wasn't sure what the entry point was called. After watching your video I will just wait and do it when I get there. I already booked the VIP bus tour. Thanks again.
So happy we could help! You will LOVE Cambodia!!! We have several videos on Siem Reap. We absolutely loved Siem Reap! Safe travels!! Thanks for watching!
Excellent video and very helpful indeed. Def sounds like a better option to Ibis. Can you please throw more light on the flight option where you still have to take a bus? Isn’t flying into SAI from DMK not an option anymore? Just starting by research, so please bear. TIA!
Thank you. So happy you liked our video! Yes, this is still an option to fly into Siem Reap Airport. The way that we looked at it was ... between spending time at 2 airports (wait time, boarding time, flying time, customs time, drive from Siem Reap airport which is about 45 minutes, etc... the most affordable, comfortable, least hassle, and most fun was doing this VIP bus trip - at least for us.
Hi! Very helpful video! Did you book in advance? If you did how many days? How did you get VIP, I checked online, but I can't seem to find it. Thank you!
Hi! Thank you. We booked the bus ticket in advance a few days. The VIP was offered to us when arrived at the bus office when we picked up our tickets, as we were leaving. We did not know about it until then. They offered for $40 for VIP which included the VISA fee for Cambodia. (so basically you are only paying $4 more than what you will pay for Visa on arrival) the service that you get for those extra few dollars is WONDERFUL! Easiest border crossings we have EVER had. No lines, no wait - just breeze through. We were back on the bus sitting comfortably in the AirCon for an hour waiting on the people that had e-visas or were getting their own Visa on arrival. It was honestly that smooth. Tip: when you are booking the bus there is only 1 that has a bathroom (although they all stop for breaks) it is/was the bus leaving at 8am. We hope we answered your questions?
Hello ... Nice video and thanks for sharing. Can you confirm the boarding location in Bangkok? I ask because their website shows 2 different locations!
So do you they handle your visa going to Cambodia? There’s two of us needing to go there also how much would the ticket be for two people? We’re currently in Bangkok now we don’t have visas yet for Cambodia. Just wondering also if they could possibly help both of us get visas?
Hi! Yes. So, we purchased our tickets from Bangkok to Siem Reap online through the www.travelmartbangkok.com website (be careful because there is only 1 bus with a bathroom on board- it is the 8am) they do have night buses also but no bathroom but they do all stop for bathroom breaks. We paid $1250 Bhat each for our bus ticket through their website to ensure we had a seat. Then when we arrived at the TravelMart office to leave, they offered the VIP (which includes the Visa and they handle everything) it was only $4 more than the Visa on Arrival would have been, so we quickly said yes. Honestly, it was the best decision we could have made. They literally took care of everything and just walked us through. When we were back at the bus relaxing in the Aircon, we still had to wait for the people getting Visa on Arrival AND those that had gotten e-visas ahead of time. We just did not have to spend time in lines. Best $4 we ever spent and the easiest border crossing we have ever had. Hope this helps. If we can help with anything else let us know!
@@eyecool wow I definitely appreciate it thanks, this has been the most helpful and most informative comment I’ve ever seen. I definitely appreciate your help me and my fiancé are trying to start a new life in Cambodia we’re both in our 20s hopefully we can get there soon. Thanks again for you’re help
@ninjaassassin5801 you are so welcome! Siem Reap has exceeded our wildest expectations. It has everything we could ever want. Right now is the time to be here…. Because in 5, 10, or 20 years it will be just as crazy (bad) as all the over crowded places we’ve seen. (Like Bali or Thailand…. Wish we’d have been there 20 or 30 years ago. Cambodia is definitely the place…. Here and now! Don’t forget, you can get married here too! We had our 11th wedding here. (Video coming soon)
@@ninjaassassin5801 Y'all are very welcome! Cambodia is a top choice to start a life in! We absolutely love it here. We have spent the last 2 months in Siem Reap and it would easily be forever - but we have so much left to see. We have wonderful friends that just came back and rented a house for a year (so affordable). Who knows - it may be us one day. Cheers to you both and we hope y'all keep watching and that our Cambodia travels ( and beyond) are helpful. Feel free to reach out with any questions you have!
It seemed to be about the same on both sides. If you are taking a bus pay the extra $4 more (than the e-visa) and the VIP will get you across with no lines and no waiting.
Yes, take a look at their schedules here: www.travelmartbangkok.com/en/transit/destinations/siem-reap The time tables are accurate. You don't need the visa before leaving. For a small fee, they handle everything for you.
From Bangkok to Siem Reap including the borders in about 7.5-8 hours. We left at 8am and were in SR by 4:30. If you do the VIP (you buy it from the bus company when you are leaving on the bus. So make sure to go to the desk and tell them you want the VIP and included visa), that provides for your visa to go to Cambodia. Hope this helps. It was so easy! You will LOVE Siem Reap! We have several videos for there, as well.
All you need is 40 and they give you visa to Cambodia right away? Is there anything else, and overall including everything how much did it cost you to get to cambodia
Three things: 1. There is the price of the transport (bus or van) which you can see on their website 2. There is the price of the Cambodian visa 3. They charged $4 to handle the visa for us.... which made our stop at the border very easy. All we did was get off the bus on the Thai side, walk across the bridge to the Cambodian side, and get back on the same bus in Cambodia. Total price = bus or van fare + Cambodian visa fee + around $4 usd if you want them to handle the visa process for you. On our bus there were people who chose to not pay $4 and handle the visa process themselves.... they were the last ones to get on the bus. For us, the $4 was worth the time we would have spent waiting in immigration lines had we done it ourselves without their help. www.travelmartbangkok.com/en/transit/destinations/siem-reap
Hello! We left Bangkok at 8am and arrived in Siem Reap about 4:45pm. There were a couple bathroom/break stops and of course, the time going through the borders. Hope this answer helps?
Yes! We just went to the website and it looks like they are only booking vans right now :( We love having a toilet on board... and this was the only company we found for busses with toilets. Hopefully they bring the busses back!
So happy you found our video. Yes, 🙌, it was a breeze. The process was easy, the ride comfortable, and the easiest border crossings we have ever done. You will love Siem Reap! Hope you have safe travels!
Hi, the bus ride was $40. The VIP was $4 and the visa to Cambodia is $35. In the video we just talk about the $40 for the bus and $4 for the VIP ( because you would have to pay the visa know matter which transportation you took to get to Cambodia). Hope this helps.
Hi Sean. The VIP with TravelMart comes with the Visa (no picture needed) When you get to both borders the TravelMart people walk your your passport through and they get you your visa. No wait, no lines, no picture, no hassle. the cost is only $4 more than it is to get your e-visa on line or Visa on Arrival. My point is that don’t do it ahead of time - they do it for you as you go through.
Yes, we agree. That was nice not having to be in long lines or stress about anything. We did just cross "on our own" walking across from Cambodia to Vietnam. That was easy too.
This is how you live your dream! Wishing you wonderful trips on the roads 😘
☺️ Thank you very much! We appreciate you! 💕
Welcome to Cambodia 🥰Safe Country and Friendly for Everyone around the world😍
Thank you so much!! We have absolutely loved Cambodia- more than we ever thought we would!

Hey there , wish u both a happy journey ...❤🎉🎉
We love you Hishey!!!
Hello ... Nice video and thanks for sharing. Can you confirm the boarding location in Bangkok? I ask because their website shows 2 different locations!
Hello and thank you! The location is the one near Koasan Road. It’s their ticket office. You can see what it looks like in the video.
❤❤❤❤

@@shreyaslegacy thank you very much! We appreciate your taking the time to leave us your thoughts. It means the world to us. 🙏❤️🌏
Is the line crowded from Cambodia to Thailand also?
It seemed to be about the same on both sides. If you are taking a bus pay the extra $4 more (than the e-visa) and the VIP will get you across with no lines and no waiting.
And how long did it take you to get the visa and the bus time? Is it done in a few hours like if I go right now can I get the visa and take a bus now?
Yes, take a look at their schedules here: www.travelmartbangkok.com/en/transit/destinations/siem-reap
The time tables are accurate. You don't need the visa before leaving. For a small fee, they handle everything for you.
Do they need visa to connect to Cambodia? How many hours of travel from Bangkok to siamrep
From Bangkok to Siem Reap including the borders in about 7.5-8 hours. We left at 8am and were in SR by 4:30. If you do the VIP (you buy it from the bus company when you are leaving on the bus.

@@eyecool yup its nice to see ankor wat the largest temple in the world

What time did you arrive in siem reap?? Thank you in advance for your answer
Hello! We left Bangkok at 8am and arrived in Siem Reap about 4:45pm. There were a couple bathroom/break stops and of course, the time going through the borders. Hope this answer helps?
When i tried to book for the bus using the website it only show Van option for 900 baht, I cant find how to book for the bus haha
Hmmmm… not sure. We didn’t have that problem.
Yes! We just went to the website and it looks like they are only booking vans right now :(
We love having a toilet on board... and this was the only company we found for busses with toilets. Hopefully they bring the busses back!
This is more like it. I just watched a video of a guy taking the train/taxi/tuk tuk from Bangkok to Siem Reap and it wasn't nice at all!
So happy you found our video. Yes, 🙌, it was a breeze. The process was easy, the ride comfortable, and the easiest border crossings we have ever done. You will love Siem Reap! Hope you have safe travels!
How much does it cost 40 including the visa?
Hi, the bus ride was $40. The VIP was $4 and the visa to Cambodia is $35. In the video we just talk about the $40 for the bus and $4 for the VIP ( because you would have to pay the visa know matter which transportation you took to get to Cambodia). Hope this helps.
Thanks
@@carldseekingpeace you’re welcome, and thank you for the thanks! 🙏
Why are you saying to skip the E visa? The E visa is the ordinary visa and you can get it on arrival.
Hi Sean. The VIP with TravelMart comes with the Visa (no picture needed) When you get to both borders the TravelMart people walk your your passport through and they get you your visa. No wait, no lines, no picture, no hassle. the cost is only $4 more than it is to get your e-visa on line or Visa on Arrival. My point is that don’t do it ahead of time - they do it for you as you go through.
@@eyecool Got it!
How do I get the vip pass ?
Hello! When we were there we paid for the VIP at the counter before we boarded the bus.
@@eyecool thanks for your response good feedback and interaction i subscribed
Thank you so much! We hope you like are other videos!
Why keep showing vip card
The vip card was only $4 more and provided an incredible service.
Easy,,,way,,,cos you not travel on your own!,,,,bus from a to b,,easy
Yes, we agree. That was nice not having to be in long lines or stress about anything. We did just cross "on our own" walking across from Cambodia to Vietnam. That was easy too.
Just say no
