Travel from the Bus Station to the Cambodia Border
The border crossing to Cambodia is 6.5 km from Aranyaprathet Bus Station. This should be a 12 minute journey in a taxi or a tuk tuk along the main road running through Aranyaprathet, the Suwannason Road. A tuk tuk should charge 60 THB to 80 THB for the journey from the bus station to the border. Motorbike taxis charge around 40 THB for the same journey. In a shared pick up truck taxi, called a ‘songthaew’ in Thailand (pronounced ‘song-tao‘), should cost 15 THB although as a foreign visitor you may be charged more. Always agree the price before you start the journey and never go with a tout insisting that you take the ‘Government Bus’ to the border. This is a scam.
