Bus from Poipet to Siem Reap

Hello.

There are 9 buses leaving in the morning, that's it.
I would consider staying overnight in Poipet and get one of the buses next morning.

Another way is to try to get a minivan [because of your bicycle], but probably no booking on forehand, you just have to ask once you arrive in Poipet.

A taxi costs $50, or if shared among 4 people $20 per person.

Good luck.

Joe

Thanks Joe.. I will check out Poipet when I arrive & try a shared taxi/minibus. Not that keen on overnight stay in Poipet:)

I managed to score a taxi for $25 which was really good it was a Lexus RX300 so I was able to put my bike in the back of it and he took me to Siem Reap

I'm in battambang at the moment and I heard  a train  go past my motel last night.

I went to the train station and it states on Wikipedia that that train station is closed, this is incorrect.

I  spoke to some locals who said a train comes through every second day and I did see the train it's a Czech Republic 1994 goods train, however it does have 2 passenger carriages which surprisingly have bench seats along the side of the carriage  not the normal in the middle.

Apparently this train starts at Poipet, travels through Battambang and goes to Phnom Penh.  However for locals it is free, I'm not sure the price for foreigners however next year I intend to travel back through Poipet and take this train

Ackshon, you can make corrections on wikipedia, top right corner 'edit' button, I'll let you take the credit     Good find.
