Cambodian Taxi Services

Siem Reap Taxi Service | Phnom Penh Taxi Services

Cambodia is still developing it's taxi services and at this point the taxi services in Cambodia are mainly private taxis. The only taxi company of which to speak of is the Vantha Taxi service in Phnom Penh.

As most taxis in Cambodia are not metered, if there are in fact any Cambodian taxis that are metered, you will need to agree upon a price before embarking on the journey.

As a guideline you can hire a taxi in Phnom Penh for about 8 hours for around town use for the sum of $25USD. Pick up from or drop off to the Phnom Penh airport by taxi is $7.50 each way. The advantage of a taxi is of course the air-conditioned comfort on the trip in. If it's your first time to Phnom Penh I'd recommend you take the taxi.

PERSONAL RECOMMENDATIONS:

In July 2005 my wife and I were fortunate enough to find ourselves within one of the most beautiful places in of one of the most beautiful countries in the world: Siem Reap, Cambodia.

.....we found Mr. John to be even more outstanding in every respect than either of us could have hoped for. Mr John is every inch the understated Cambodian gentleman, polite, well spoken, honest, punctual and highly knowledgeable about the people and surrounding areas. John not only acted as our driver during our time spent in Siem Reap but also our guide, interpreter and someone who was able to provide a wealth of historical and political knowledge and recent information about the area as he took us places we would have never have seen otherwise.

We would wholeheartedly encourage any English speaking visitors to engage Mr. John prior to arriving in town for the fullest most rewarding experience available. We will be returning to Siem Reap in the future and will most definitely be using Mr. John's services again. We wish him and his family well !!!. Fraser & Anne Glendinning, Scotland.
