    First trip to cambodia

    I have a couple months before I go Back to the states. And getting a little bored with Thailand. So I would like to try Cambodia. I would like advice on inexpensive but safe places to stay. And the low down on the bar scene. Best places for women.
    Goodlooking women.
    Don't under estimate the power of stupid people in large groups!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    ^ you'll struggle to find good looking women in Cambodia .
    always worth a hunt though,
    PP is the place but its a shithole,
    western bars are cheap for food though.
    I never found girls in siem or there is always sinokville.

    safest places to stay in pp is by the river not near the old market.
    get a driver at the airport, I've a friend with a taxi or another with a tuk tuk, known them both for 6+ yrs,
    will pick up and stay wiv u till the early hours ,
    plus once u have a driver he doubles as a bodyguard, u know shoo's off the riff raff n stuff.

    I wouldn't bother going at all, you appear to be an unprepared whoremonger.

    And why would that be? Unprepared that is? I thought that is what I was trying to do.

    Taxi to st 104.

    Stay at pickled parrot, loads of bars on that st.

    Afternoons in the FCC Club on the river. Red wine and bites watching the world go by.

    St 136 at night if your a bit of a party animal but keep an eye open.

    Don't go wandering down dark ally's late at night.

    Enjoy but remember its not Bangkok.

    Anywhere in downtown PP is as safe as anywhere else, Riverside is no 'safer' than the area around the Old market. In fact, Riverside attracts the worst of the touts and rip-off tuk tuks so I'd recommend staying elsewhere to save getting hassled. St172 or nearby is a decent area to stay in.

    You say PP is a shithole, you don't like the 'riff-raff', the women are ugly, yet you then say you've been going there for 6+ years. Why? Its a conservative developing country, what do you expect? Pattaya?

    If you have been going for 6+years you must be pretty daft to think a tuk tuk driver is going to act as a bodyguard for you, they don't get paid enough. The fact you feel you need a 'bodyguard' and feel PP is unsafe away from Riverside, that you don't know about the numerous higer class brothels with stunning viets/khmers/chinese and that you couldn't find a woman in SR says to me you aint got a clue mate.

    There are some beautiful women in Cambodia, but they tend to not wish to sell their fanny to cheap sex tourists. If you hang around cheap, low-class dives you'll find cheap, low-class women.

    What he said.

    I'd also try and get a couple of friends to join you as sitting in a bar alone is a bit sad.

    Start the afternoon off with a beer and dinner in Sharky's. Then head off from there. Tones of bars around that area. Pick up the PP guide. A little book thats free and gives you all the sights/bars/eats in town.

    They're not all neccesarily 'high-class', they just have nice birds cos the Asians and locals don't pay to bone munters!

    They're all hidden with some sort of front, such as a massage parlour, massage in hotels, beer garden beer girls, hairdressers, karaoke parlours, restaurants etc. In many of the hotels they have fish bowls. They're literally everywhere but you won't notice most of the time.

    You're best to ask around about fishbowl massages when you get there as you're not likely to just come across them as a short term tourist, and they come and go allthe time so my info may be out of date. Look up Heaven hotel, Paris hotel, Casa hotel, Bun Pav hotel . Check out some beer gardens, some lovely women and cheap beer, but easier if you speak the lingo...they come and sit with you at your table and you can agree to meet them after work.

    Failing that, for western orientated places, 136,104 and 51 are where the main concentration of hostess bars are. For freelance bars, Sharky is good from 8pm, Martinis from 10pm, and Heart of darkness from 12pm. Riverhouse and pontoon are a bit more upmarket and attract some tasty birds.

    ^^^^^^^ for a start PP is a shithole . you never see many good looking girls there . well less than Thai for sure, I did say its worth a hunt though.
    always had a security guard with an AK47 when I stayed in central, safe is it? plus if u stay riverside you can walk to many "normal" bars, I mean would u walk from central to say sharkys after 10??

    only go to pp for a visa run cos its air asias cheapest and shortest run, just for a day or 2.
    yes I know you will struggle to believe this but not all of us are here to shag cheap Asian whores , some of us travel and take in the sights too, hence siem.
    ok u mentioned high class, I doubt it, u need to be in say London, new York or say Paris for that,
    your idear of high class is embarrassing !

    to compare to pattaya is a laugh , is that the only place u know in Thai? . not my favorable city although it has everything u need if u don't speak or like Thai .

    bodyguard was said lightly , if u have a driver u trust all the rip off tuk tuk drivers and sales kids will leave u alone, not even ask or pester u atall .

    Budget sex pest

    OP, I've never been to Cambodia (we'll not properly...), so I can't help you, but would you and your mate consider doing a photothread - I think it has potential.

    i was there early feb last year, stayed in some small towns and siem reap, just talking to the missus about the safety aspect and she said the same as me, its safe as you like, its getting better, and id say it will surpass thailand as a holiday destination in the future


    i did enjoy first blood, as a kind of warm up for the deer hunter

    I 1st went there in 2005 and yes, dodgy as hell. But a year later, roads were being laid. It completely changed in 2 years time. The Japanese helped build the riverside front in PP.

    No need to have a body guard. This isnt KR era ffs. Only a twat from america would dream of hiring a bodyguard. And everyone will start laughing at you, even the laid back americans in the bars.

    I was in Thailand for the rocket festival some years back. Only one loon, on his own thought to bring along a bodyguard. Never found out from what country he was from, but you can hazard a guess.

    Cambodia is safe as houses, provided you dont wander into the jungles and find yourself in a minefield.

    Street 136 was my place to drink and find girls. Candy bar is open 24/7 as well is Sharkys


    http://www.canbypublications.com/map...mbodia-map.htm

    And pubs and clubs of PP http://www.canbypublications.com/phnompenh/ppnight.htm

    Some places are heaving, and some empty as sin. Just poke your head in and see if it takes your fancy, or walk on by.

    I've just had a quick look back at a bunch of photos from a rugby trip I went on a few years ago. Fucking mental. If the Midget ever finds then she won't be best pleased even if it was before her tenure.
