One of the most convenient ways to travel from Phnom Penh Airport to the capital of Cambodia is a taxi. Parking is located on the station square, 50 meters from the airport.
You can get from Phnom Penh Airport to your destination by two types of taxi service. The first option is local Tuk Tuk, which are tricycles with benches for passengers. For a trip by such transport, you will pay about 3-5 dollars, but the way to Phnom Penh will take approximately 40-50 minutes.

Do not forget that the total price of a trip depends on the number of passengers, luggage, and the conscientiousness of the driver.

If you want to get to the cities of Phnom Penh, Sihanoukville, Siem Reap or Kaep with maximum comfort, a suitable option is to book a private transfer. The trip, in this case, is more profitable, and the service is more attractive than traveling by a regular taxi.
