On the Road: Once the bus departs, the Crew Attendant will hand out a pastry from Blue Pumpkin, a bottle of water and a cold towel. The Crew Attendant is on hand throughout the journey to respond to passengers' needs.
Vietnamese Customs and Immigration: When the bus arrives as the border, passengers must disembark to receive an exit stamp in their passports. The Crew Attendant will return passports to passengers as they get off the bus and collect them again when you get back on to process them with Cambodian immigration.
Lunch Stop: After clearing Vietnamese immigration, the bus will make a 30-minute stop at a restaurant in the duty-free zone. Here, passengers can enjoy lunch while the Crew Attendant takes all passports to the Cambodian immigration check point to start the process while you eat, saving time crossing the border.
Cambodian Customs and Immigration: After all Cambodian visas have been processed, the bus continues to the immigration check point, where all luggage needs to be scanned. Note, if locals ask to help you carry your luggage, they will expect US$1 per bag. The Crew Attendant will guide passengers to the passport collection point, where the luggage is scanned and back to the bus.
Relax… Sit back, relax and enjoy the scenery.

You'll get to see Vietnamese and Cambodian rural life first-hand as you drive through small towns and villages. Free Wi-Fi is available onboard, but please note connection is temperamental when driving through rural areas. Our buses are also equipped with power points.
