Re: Taking Cigarettes o/s
A friend who travels from Cambodia to Oz several times a year only carries a small backpack with 8-10 cartons as he is a heavy smoker on a pension. His age and travel history sees him always waved thru. But makes you wonder - at 500 a carton - even if you sell 1/2 price it is a good earner. As I und...

Re: Going to Viet Nam with Cambodian registered motorbike
It's hit and miss - I know ppl who have been able to go to Phu Quoc but at Ha Tien they are told they have to stay in that province only. Now reports are that it is near impossible to do - some have paid coffee money but had no intention of going far into the country. Also the risk is being stopped ...

Re: Drive times and Prices: PP - Ha Tien Border.
As someone who does not like minibuses in Cambodia, I would go to Psar Daemkor and negtiate a front seat in a decent-looking Highlander (or the whole car). I'd expect to pay about $50 for the whole car, or $15 for the front seat. Vietnam has good ride hailing apps but I don't know if you can get a ...

Re: Drive times and Prices: PP - Ha Tien Border.
You might want to be aware that the visa rules for VN are all crazy. If you fly from PP to Phu Quoc you do not need a VN visa as it is a visa free island.... HOWEVER, if you enter VN via Ha Tien you will need a VN visa. (E-visa) This is a pain in the arse as it is close to Lunar New Year and the Im...
