Once the formalities have been expedited, boarding back onto the speedboat and departure towards Phnom Penh.
Arrival at the pier on the Tonle Sap River in Phnom Penh about three and a half hours after departure, and end of services.

The details of the program and the visits may vary depending on logistics or technical constraints.

Some possible extensions

Here are some extension possibilities about the journey you are preparing. These, for the most part, we manage ourselves. May you find here some inspiration.

Before boarding

Before boarding, you may come all the way from Cambodia's Phnom Penh if you charter a speedboat, a trip that takes you through the frontier in no more than 5 hours. Otherwise, depending on the time schedule of the speedboats, you may have to spend a night in Châu Đốc. Think of preparing a visa to Vietnam beforehand.

To book an extension

You may simply ask us to book any of these extensions, just mention it when booking the Bassac. We can also help you with the road transfer arrangements.
