Border Crossing to Lao in Stung Treng
Stung Treng is the last outpost before the Lao border. The crossing sees few visitors for the time being despite the 87 km of excellent road all the way up to the border.
There is no scheduled means of (public) transport to the border and even if you have a motorbike driver or a fast boat taking you there, you may have to walk on the Lao side to the village of Voeng Kham to find some form of transport (about 4 km from the border). Travellers on the public bus from Phnom Penh are collected at the border though.
From Febuary 2010 Lao Visa is availible on arrival. How much depends on what passport you are having, but most where about 30 or 35 dollars. And bring some small domination dollars to pay the "processing" fee of 1$ to 2$ on each side of the border.
