Getting There
Phnom Penh International Airport is the busiest in Cambodia. Direct flights do not run from the U.K. currently, meaning that a stop in popular hubs such as Bangkok or Hong Kong gives you the opportunity to enjoy more than one exciting destination on your travels.
By Air – Flights from the U.K. take around 15 hours to Phnom Penh indirect. Travelling from the airport to the city centre takes around 30 minutes.
By Road – Phnom Penh is around a 3 hour drive from Cambodia’s beach resorts, Sihanoukville or Kep.
Combine With
Combine Phnom Penh with Siem Reap and the beaches of the Gulf Coast for a fabulous Cambodia experience. Or you can add Vietnam, Laos, Thailand or any other Asia destination.
