For travellers heading onward to Cambodia, Chau Doc serves as a major departure point for the Chau Doc to Phnom Penh speedboat journey. Several companies (like Hang Chau Tourist or Blue Cruiser) operate daily services that travel up the Mekong River, crossing the Mekong River border crossing and reaching the Cambodian capital in approximately 5-6 hours.

This river journey offers a scenic and convenient way to travel Vietnam to Cambodia, avoiding long bus rides. If Chau Doc is your last stop in Vietnam, taking the speedboat offers a unique transition between the two countries along the mighty Mekong. Ensure you have the necessary visa arrangements for Cambodia sorted beforehand.vvvv
