Day 07: 29 Nov 2017 (Wednesday)

Route: Ayutthaya – Chantaburi - Koh Kong

Distance: 476 km

Hotel: City Hotel, Koh Kong 

We had breakfast together with the gang at Khiua Muslim Restaurant. This morning we split from the rest and rode solo towards Thailand/Cambodia border at Had Lek/Cham Yeam. The rest of the KKB gang will ride back to Malaysia.

The suburb of Bangkok was heavy with traffic. Traffic was manageable and smooth after Chachoengsao. Reached Chantaburi late afternoon and had lunch in one Pakistan Restaurant in town. Performed our prayers in the restaurant before heading towards the Thailand/Cambodia border.

(Some major road works along the route)

Border crossing at both borders was swift and efficient. Submitted the usual documentations at the Had Lek Thailand border and no fee was paid here. At Cham Yeam Cambodia border paid Baht100 each for entry card and passport stamping. No conveyance was needed for our motorbike. The border business hours was from 8.00 am to 10.00 pm.

(Swift border crossing process)

It was already dark when we entered Cambodia. There was no toll at Koh Kong Bridge. Checked in Koh Kong City hotel for USD15/night. Feeling tired, we had packed fried rice for dinner in the room.
