Siem Reap to Battambang

On Monday I checked the options for the transport form Siem Reap to Battambang.
There were 3.
1. take the boat: 6 hours and 45$
2. take the bus: 4-6 hours 17-25$
3. shared taxi: 3 hours 15$

Decided on the taxi and hoped it was not a fail.
At 9:30 I got picked up via tuk tuk which drove to an travel agency where I had to wait.
While waiting 1 other guy got dropped off and a car with 6 seats arrived. It looked like a normal car so we were a bit concerned of all 7 people plus luggage would fit. It fit and then we were on the road. In Cambodia the driving is well how to put it. Totally different than in Germany. They drive fast and always overtake other and it doesn’t matter if a other car is coming straight at you. Well we survived and checked in.
My hotel is really low maintenance but still better than an view I had in Thailand.
After check in I just walked around and hat Chinese dumpling soup in a local place. Best food ever. 10/10
Going early to bed cause tomorrow will be a long day.Read more
