September 18, 20215 yr https://www.plenglish.com/index.php?o=rn&id=71455&SEO=cambodia-prepares-reopening-of-tourism-in-november Quote Cambodia prepares reopening of tourism in November The Cambodian Ministry of Tourism informed that it is working to allow fully vaccinated international holidaymakers to visit the country as of November. ... Authorities are also considering the reduction or total elimination of the 14-day quarantine for tourists who produce a negative Covid-19 test taken 72 hours prior to travel upon arrival at Phnom Penh International Airport. Cambodia is currently the second most vaccinated country in Southeast Asia after Singapore. "reduction or total elimination" ... well hat makes a huge difference
September 18, 20215 yr Active Members Cambodia's 60%+ full vaccination rate is very impressive, compared to Thailand's 20% & Vietnam's 6%. Maybe Cambodia's re-opening plans are not just talk.
October 8, 20214 yr They are building some high end attractions as well..... 😀 https://www.khmertimeskh.com/50948181/plane-cafe-aims-to-attract-tourists-to-kampot/
October 9, 20214 yr 16 hours ago, z909 said: I believe Cambodia is mostly using Chinese vaccines, with some Astra Zeneca, so its high vaccination rate my not be as re-assuring as it could be. Notwithstanding that, Cambodia is a viable alternative if Thailand does not open up soon. The only downside is that Phnom Penh doesn't really have enough attractions (our kind of attractions) to justify more than a quick 3 or 4 day visit. I don't know about Siem Reap, but from what I've read, no better than Phnom Penh.
October 9, 20214 yr Active Members Good point about the Chinese vaccines. I have been to Phnom Penh several times & find that I like it more & more. But, for 'our kind of attractions', what's available in PP is more like Chiang Mai. No comparison to Bangkok.
