Important Information

  1. Minimum group size. 2 guests. If only 1 guest books, the operator may cancel, move you to the next day, or offer a private upgrade at a higher rate.
  2. Road conditions. NR6 between Siem Reap and Battambang is sealed and in good shape year-round. A few short sections slow down in August during heavy rain.
  3. Age policy. All ages welcome. Children under 4 ride free on a parent’s lap. Car seats are available on request at booking.

  6. Booking lead time. One day ahead on weekdays, two days ahead on weekends is safest.
  7. Day length. Around 12 to 13 hours door to door, which gives you time for a proper shower and dinner back home.
