There are a load of different ways to get from Laos to Cambodia so this post will concentrate on the one in southern Laos near the resort of Don Det. From there you can cross between Nong Nok Khieng and Trapaing Kreal and enter Cambodia. A few travel tips and money savers are revealed here. []
To get a bus that goes across the border from Don Det to Cambodia just shop around to find one.
When you go to Cambodia from Laos what do you need?
– $27 US Dollars (the cheapest you could get it for in 2012)
– Complete all the forms
Sorting out your Cambodian Visa:
To get your visa for Cambodia sorted you need to book things yourself. It will save you time, hassle and most of all money. Plus as a traveller it is always better to do things for yourself rather than pay others. You will get your visa forms just before the border so fill them in and you are ready to hit Cambodia.
Do you have to pay to leave Laos at Nong Nok Khieng?
They told us we were free to walk across without the departure stamp but that we would be charged in Cambodia. We had to bite the bullet and in the end paid them $2 US Dollars each. Just to leave Laos. A horrible end to a time in a country I don’t have a lot of positives for.
So there shouldn’t be a charge. However if it is a Saturday or Sunday they will try to charge you an “overtime fee” and that was what happened to us. So if you want a tip – don’t cross the border at the weekend. You’ll save $2 US Dollars.
How do you get across the border between Laos and Cambodia?
It’s just a mere 1 minute walk across a bridge and it won’t be too busy. Once you arrive on the Cambodian side you just pay them $25 and they check your forms and photo then they put your visa on ready to go and explore Cambodia!
You have arrived in the Cambodian border point of Trapeang Kreal.
Just so you are aware this is not really a village at all – it’s just the border crossing but ultimately you board your bus there and head onwards, south through Cambodia. I don’t know if this is unusual but our bus waited for about two hours there at the border so we were sitting around for two hours. I quite enjoyed this as my Irish travel buddies (who got the bus with me but sorted their visas through the bus driver) were waiting for me there! So with two Irish guys and an Irish girl sitting on the border having just entered Cambodia (I was on country number 68) gold air max plus outlet , it was time for a beer!!
The sun was beating down and it was hot. I had paid $27 US Dollars to leave Laos and enter Cambodia and we then learned that a beer here was only 50 cents. Still on a slight budget, Anthony (from Cork) and I had a beer each and sat in the shade. I read my lonely planet book and we chatted about all things in life and relaxed. Within two hours we were safely on the bus to Phnom Penh. The bus took a further 12 hours that day to get us to the city of Phnom Penh just before midnight, but it was a great trip. If you want to break up the journey and get off the beaten track a bit – there are buses to Stung Treng pink air max plus outlet , Kratie and Kompong Cham as well. I was happily heading straight to Phnom Penh though!
Total price I paid to get from Laos to Cambodia:
The cheapest total will be just $25 US for your Cambodian Visa. But add on the extra $2 fee to leave Laos and it wil be $27 US.
