It was a reasonably comfortable ride. Probably down to the roads as much as anything. I did think toilets were onboard , but the bus did stop at various places. easy to book and a great way to travel, especially if short on time.
very cramped. the seats are too small
The scheduled departure time in Kompong Thom was 13:30, but was delayed by 1 hour and 45 minutes to 15:15. The bus company gave no explanation, and I waited for more than two hours. The arrival time in Phnom Penh was also delayed by 2 hours to 18:15.
When leaving Phnom Penh, I had told the driver that I would get off at Kompong Thom, but the driver did not stop at Kompong Thom. I realized that the driver had passed by, so I told the driver that I was getting off and finally was able to get off.
Very comfortable journey.
I noticed thatbthe driver was using his phone and texting while driving with 100 to 120kph. I was seated in front beside the driver seat. I got nervous and not good practice to drive while texting. High risk to get accident. We arrived in PP safely.
Bus broke down after only one hour. So the trip was 3 hours longer than expected and a lot of people get stressed of catching flight or ferry
