Re-entry permit for Cambodia

Country forums / South-East Asia Mainland / Cambodia

I'm planning a cycling trip to Cambodia and the Mekong Delta and have several options.

Fly with Thai to Phnom Phen, cycle some loops of Cambodia, get Viet visa in PP, go through Mekong Delta and leave from Saigon. (Thai Air)

Is it cheaper to fly in and out of the same city?

If I fly in and out of PP I will need a re entry permit for Cambodia. Would I need to get a second visa if I haven't used up all my days? If I do need another visa can I get another e-visa from an internet cafe somewhere in the delta?

Thanks for any help. Jill

Get Cambo Visa on arrival at the border for cash $ and get a Viet Visa in PP from a travel agent - these are the best,m fastest, priciest options.

Cycling the main roads will be rather unpleasant, as trucks chase you down and road rule No 1 is survival of the fattest.

Why do you fly into PP ? If I were you, I'd take a bus from BKK to Cambo border and overland from there, minding you can always hop on the back of a pickup (dusty!) or a bus with your bike.

Because I don't like the Thai dogs. I got bitten in Ayuthaya, and had to get booster rabies injections. See my blog Sixty-Six, Solo and South East Asia on crazyguyonabike.com

The footprint guide says you can get a multi entry Viet visa in Bangkok. Does anyone know if that is so and the cost?

Then I can fly to Saigon, cycle through the Mekong delta cross into Cambodia with an e-visa, to save hassles with corrupt officials at the border and return to Vietnam then leave from Saigon.

PS I'll post on the On your Bike branch too.

Multi-entry visa for Vietnam easily obtained everywhere you can get a single-entry visa. Usually double the cost of a single-entry visa.

Don't worry the border officials will come up with something for e-visas soon enough. Good luck cycling through cambodia - I have even clipped one or two bike riders by accident and I'm not even a ruthless lexcus driver.
