We will be visiting this monestary from a river cruise. Two questions, does anyone know how far the ride is from the boat to the monastery and are there public toilets here? Thank you

I hired a private car with airconditioning & driver from Phnom Penh for US$45 return. The driver actually walked with me up the 590 stairs from the car park up to the top of the hill where the pagoda is located. From the Pagoda you can see the Monastery. From Phnom Penh we drove along the river till close to the town Oudong. I think if you get off the boat near the Oudong town, then it will be only a 15 minutes drive by car to the Monastery. The driver took me to a nice local restaurant for lunch & a beer before we returned to Phnom Penh. Because the driver was very helpful and nice I generously give him a US$15 tip. We started at 08:30 am and arrived at Oudong one hour later. Arrived back in Phnom Penh around 3:00 pm Tuk-tuk is too far for the Oudong trip.
