By Taxi

Pick up trucks and taxis are leaving daily from a taxi station at the Sokimex station after the bridge located in front of the Royal residence.
Price for a seat inside the pick up:
Price for a seat at the rear of the pick up:
Price for a place in a taxi: 300Baths
Be carefull: taxis or pick up are overcrowded, it is not comfortable at all. Pick up will drop you to Sisophon to an another pick up and you'll wait for this new one is full to be able to continue your trip. Prefer the taxi.

We recommend you to rent the front seat, buy two places for one person, it will cost you the double price but you will have more comfort.

An another suggetion to feel free is to rent the all taxi for yourself, the more you are the more it is cheap.
