Sihanoukville to Angkor Wat
There is no short road. The usual line is Sihanoukville to Phnom Penh, then Phnom Penh to Siem Reap, about 540 kilometers. Flying almost always means a connection. Plan the Angkor Pass for the day after you arrive rather than the evening you roll in.

Ways to go
| Mode | Cost range | Duration | Booking notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Flight via Phnom Penh | $70–$180 | 6 h | Connection time dominates. You land in Siem Reap and still need a ride out to Angkor Wat. |
| Bus | $20–$35 | 12 h | Often a change in Phnom Penh. Overnight coaches exist. Arrive in Siem Reap, not at the temple. |
| Private car | $140–$200 | 9 h | One vehicle all the way is faster than two public tickets. Split it if you are three or four. |
