Best Time to Go
December through April during the dry season.

Trivia
there are more Skieng than Khmer in and around the city of Snuol.

Traveling to Snuol by local bus or taxi is the most popular mean of getting here although the roads are not in good condition, with holes and mud sections commonplace. If coming from Vietnam there is an official border crossing at the town of Trapeang Phlong, which is 44kms southeast of Memot.

Snuol has an impressive double boulevard that runs through the center of town, which is where all the shops, markets and restaurants are located. The town is rather deserted with hardly any cars or people.

Travel to Snuol - Getting There

Snuol is easily reached by private car, taxi or local bus. Highways 7 and 13 both pass through the town. From Memot the journey takes between 2 to 3 hours depending on road conditions. From Phnom Penh's international airport the trip can take around 14 hours by road.
