Hi all I had to cut short our Laos trip and head to Siem Reap. We couldn't find a bank open on Sunday and airport exchanges were closed so have about 1.5m Kip to exchange for USD. I think a fair exchange rate would be about 8,000 kip to the dollar. So if you are in Siem Riep and need kip before heading into Laos send me a message and we can try to sort something out. Cheers (30 year old English guy travelling with misses in case anyone thought this was some weird scam)

Cambodian riel (as well as Lao kip) are 100% useless and without value outside the borders of their countries of issue, so make sure you get rid of it all before returning to Thailand or going to Vietnam...
