Cambodia shares several border crossings with Vietnam, all fairly distant from Siem Reap. The Bavet Crossing offers easiest access to Phnom Penh.
Bavet Checkpoint: Moc Bai, Vietnam/ Bavet, Cambodia (National Route 1 to/from Phnom Penh)
Cambodia visas available at the border. Vietnamese visas are NOT available at the border.
The Moc Bai crossing is the most convenient to Phnom Penh and Ho Chi Minh City. The road is in good condition, though the bridge over the Mekong River at Neak Luong town is still under construction requiring ferrying across the river.
Bus: There are several bus companies offering multiple daily direct a/c bus service between Phnom Penh and HCMC for $10-$12, taking about 6 hours. Phnom Penh Sorya, Mekong Express and Capitol Tours all have regular bus service PP-HCMC. In HCMC, most of the bus stations and offices are in the Pham Ngu Lao area.
Please check with Tourist Information Center and some travel agencies in town for more information.
