Letim in Sihanoukville on the plane
Cambodia Angkor Air. Provides regular direct flights between Phnom Penpenem and Sianouquavil three times a week (as a rule, it is Monday, Wednesday and Friday), while Cambodia Bayon Airlines. Direct flights to Sihanoukville from Siemreapa every day, with direct flights twice a week (Friday and Sunday). Both airlines receive online ticket booking, but you will have to come to the Bayon Airlines office in order to complete the payment and flight booking within 48 hours from the date of booking (in Phnompene or Siemreapa). All this is understandable when you are inside the country. As it should be expected, there are no direct flights to Sihanoukville. Actually, on this airport, flights only from Siemreapa are launched (maybe for now). So, we will have to transplage in Hanoi and Siemreapa, and there are tickets and with three transplants (then you will also have to walk along Ho Chi Minh City, for example). Sihanoukville Airport (Kangkeng), by the way, the third in Cambodia in size is international airport. It is about 18 km from the city.
Buses
Sihanoukville is serviced by a large number of bus companies. Giant Ibis and Mekong Express are today the best from a number of similar, with landscaped buses and disciplined drivers, which is rather unusual, and therefore estimates and the truth is high. On minibuses it is recommended to book a place close to the sliding door to get more space for the legs and do not sit next to someone else. Prices for travel change depending on the season. And yes, in the framework of traveling by buses to Sihanoukville from anywhere in Cambodia, you will most likely have to go through the penetration.
For example, to get to Sihanoukville from Siemreapa by bus, you still have to go through the penetration. Depending on a number of factors, the whole trip usually takes about 14 hours. Giant Ibis offers night buses from Siemreapa with departure next morning of Sihanoukville. Tickets for such a journey will cost approximately $ 24-25.

Guest houses sometimes offer their own transport to the penetration and other places of the country.
From Campota
Bus messages between Sianouquavil and Campot (between which only about 100 km) is non-permanent and incomprehensible; Buses then go, then stop walking. But you can contact CHAMPA MEKONG (office on Ekareach Street in Kampot- Sometimes they offer buses at 08:00, 10:30 and 15:30 about $ 5). You can also go to Sihanoukville by taxi from the old market boulevard about $ 25/30. And here it is customary to divide a taxi with others to save - the driver will search for the passengers.
From Thailand
For example, buses of several bus companies are regularly directed from Koh Kong: you can find out information in the offices on Street 3 (Street 3) in the city center. As a rule, from there, there are excellent buses with air conditioning, and the path will take about 4-5 hours (the ticket is worth $ 6-10). Virak Buntham buses follow from Koh Kong every day (at least season) at 08:15 ($ 9-10 ticket).
If you want to go to Thailand, then the versions of the movement are a bit, and they are not the most comfortable. For example, you can buy a ticket to the border to the border, then you get to spend on the minivan, and, as soon as you cross the border, another bus will be picked up. Or you can buy a "batch" ticket, which includes the same good bus to the border, but from the border you will go to the minivan straight to Bangkok (sometimes through Pattaya). The first option is cheaper and more convenient, although if you organize all movements yourself, it turns out too much. The second option is not so pleasant, and more expensive. But both options suggest traveling ride. Such a tour costs from $ 25-27, buses depart at 08:15 and 20:00. The morning trip will take about 14 hours, and evening - up to 18 hours.

Other options
Taxi Regularly takes tourists and local residents from Phnom Penh to Sihanoukville and back. The whole car can be rented for $ 50 to $ 60, and if you want to save, you have to wait until the driver fully loads the machine (which can hold up to eight people), but then the passage will cost about $ 9-10. Taxi is faster than the bus, but the journey can be more extreme, especially if you sat on the front seat (and see everything that happens). From foreigners who were led to sit forward, usually charge a little more.How to move around the city
If you do not have your own transport, you can ride on Motodopes or Tuk Tuka . Motodopa here, however, probably the worst in the country. In any case, always first negotiate the cost of the passage. Never pay before you arrive at the right place. If you need to go at night, try to go with those you know and who went before. It can be said that it is an old man - the most calm and honest taxi drivers, unlike young and shocks.
The easiest thing is, of course Rent a motorcycle or scooter himself. True, career: more than once it happened that the tourist takes a rental transport, and then it is supposedly steal - the client is forced to pay the entire cost of the motorcycle, and a few weeks after the tourist left the city, the motorcycle is magically appearing again. In short, if you decide to rent a motorcycle, bring your own reliable castle with you.
Ride Tuk Tuka More interesting, although there is in the city and Tuk-Tuk "Mafia", which also strives to pick up the price (for example, up to $ 6-7 for the 10th trip). If you learn a taxi driver away from buddies, you can agree on a lower price. And the rules are the same: agree on price before going, and pay only when you arrive at the destination. And do not expect that the driver of the Tuk-Tuka has a surrender.
