Renbe Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 My Thai GF and I are traveling in my Thai registered car in Cambodia. We're in Siem Reap now, and would like to visit Preah Vihear. A local guide told us that Thai citizens are not allowed in the area by the Cambodian Army. Does anyone have any recent experience with this?

phuketrichard Posted March 1, 2013 Share Posted March 1, 2013 as what i wrote but will repost it here for all; We drove up to the booth and parked our car, My Camboidian GF, me and my daughter. showed her US passport an mine. Got motorbikes to the top ( $5 each) and started walking, a cop asked Angela ( my daughter where she was from, she looks thai) and she said thailand an the shit started. They held us up an 10 minutes of phone calls back an forth, Finally they assigned us 3 polce who "escorted " us the whole time around the temple. When ever they could the tried to get my daughter alone an ask her questions, she was really really upset an i kept pushig them away an telling them to go fuc_k off. Only benefit was the one assigned to me spoke english so i learned alot about the area an temple It left a realy bad feeling so YES do NOT take ur thai gf to Preah Vihear.....I am sure if we had showed her Thai passport at the bottom they would not have allowed her to go up the mtn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phuketrichard Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Just an update Renbe traveled to PV and they would NOT allow his thai gf to go up the hill. Thais are not allowed it seems no matter what anyone tells you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomtomtom69 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Better if you didn't even take your Thai registered vehicle anywhere near the temple. It would have been better to drive around a Lao registered vehicle and claim your gf is Lao.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
