Trip to Vietnam - Cambodia 3/5

Day 3 - Sat, 15 Mar 2014
We should be at Sinh Tourist at 8.10 AM, the bus will leave at 8.35 AM. With this USD 10 package for Mekong Delta 1 day, we choose My Tho Ben Tre 1 Day tour. The Package include bus, tour guide in english, lunch, mineral bottle, wet tissue. In this tour we got to visit few islands by boat, went to see place to make flat cake (like crepes), enjoyed Vietnam traditional music, doing canoeing and went to see how to make coconut candy. From Ho Chi Minh city to the Mekong took around 1,5 hours. We back to Ho Chi Minh around 6 PM. On our bus, there were lots of korean people almost 3/4 of the bus were korean. We met new friends during that day, Korean & Hongkong, and a little cute friend from Vietnam ;) overall the tour was okay and the one that made it so special because the people we met ^^ i would recommend Sinh Tourist.

Day 4 - Sun, 16 Mar 2014
We took Mekong Express Limousine Bus from Ho Chi Minh to Siam Reap, Cambodia. We already booked online USD 26, the bus took 6 hours to Phnom Penh and then we will change the bus at Phnom Penh to Siam Reap, journey took around 7 hours. We left at 7 AM and arrive at Siam Reap around 9 PM. Took a Tuk Tuk which didn't got a best deal, we had to pay USD 3 to hotel, actually you can get USD 2, there are a lot of tuk tuk there, because we were worried, we hired this guy because there was a man who works on the Mekong Bus who recommend this guy and offered us to have him to pick us up to hotel. Tuk tuk driver on Cambodia usually have a same attitude, they hope after we hired him for one day, they expect to get a job from us to hire him for the next day, we will go to Angkor Wat tomorrow and I read on the blog before that cost for one tuk tuk is USD 12~15 for one day, but he didn't want it. And it ended up with USD 20 T.T coz my friends seem tired and it's night already and we planned to go on sunrise, i stayed at Bou Savy Guesthouse and once again i could tell no worries even it's night already coz there are lots of tuk tuk there, the receptionist on hotel could help you to find tuk tuk and he said cost USD 15, so actually you can have USD 2 to hotel and USD 15 for one day including Angkor Wat, Old Market and back to hotel.
