Not a complaint but just HAD to post this !
I am in the throes of planning a holiday later this year.
I like to look at the inummerable forums that exist to help the wary traveller and have just come across this item on VirtualTourist.com.
Enjoy !
Recommended taxi driver in Phnom Penh - Mr Tim
Posted: Wed February 21 13:29:21 2007 UTC
I would like to take this opportunity to recommend Mr Tim, a very humble and honest taxi driver while you are in Phnom Penh. He can take you to and fro the airport (USD7 one way) and bring you to the famous sightseeing spots (USD25 per day. Yuo can contact him on 855 12 388147.
He is a model citizen of the country.
On the contrary, be careful of taxi driver Vong Sam-Aung from Siem Reap, taxi no A35 (reg no 2A-2843). He's a cheat! Charged us USD15 for a bus ticket to Phnom Penh when the actual cost is only USD10, and there were 4 of us! He offered to buy for us and cheated us USD20 extra on top of the USD25 fee we paid him for his one day transport service. He is a shame to Cambodia. Be careful of this person!

Ron -
it never changes and Caveat Emptor is still the rule when travelling
we landed at Hawaii on our way to Australia and as we sere spending afew days there we needed a cab to get into Honolulu
strangely all the cab drivers were from the Southern United States including the boss who directed us to the head of the line.
We had what we learned later, was a tour of the suburbs of Honolulu at a cost of some $USD 35:oo and nearly 45 minutes.
The return journey to the airport by shuttle service cost $USD6:oo and ten minutes !
