Przed wyjazdem
Z lotniska
Phnom Penh International Airport (PNH) is about 30-60 minutes from the city center depending on traffic. Official airport taxis cost a fixed $15. A private car booked via your hotel is similar. The most economical option is a tuk-tuk, which costs $9-12. Use the Grab or PassApp ride-hailing apps for the best fixed price (around $7-9 for a car, $5-7 for a tuk-tuk).
Poruszanie się po mieście
The Riverside area, French Quarter, and BKK1 are fairly walkable for short distances, with sidewalks (though often obstructed). However, the heat, humidity, and chaotic traffic crossings make walking between major districts (e.g., Riverside to Russian Market) unpleasant and time-consuming. Tuk-tuks are recommended for longer stretches.
Lokalne wskazówki
- Carry small US Dollar bills ($1, $5, $10). The US Dollar is widely accepted, but you'll often get change in Cambodian Riel. A mix of both currencies is essential.
- Download the PassApp or Grab taxi apps. They offer fixed-price, meterless rides via tuk-tuk or car, eliminating haggling and overcharging, especially at night or from tourist spots.
- For a unique market experience, visit Psar Orussey early in the morning. It's a massive, multi-story local market where you'll see few tourists and every imaginable item for sale.
