Kampot

Kampot is a relaxed riverside town in southern Cambodia, famous for world-class pepper, colonial-era architecture, cave temples, and easy access to Bokor National Park and the coast. Many travellers spend a few nights here after the beaches or before heading to Kep.

A private taxi from Phnom Penh to Kampot or from Sihanoukville makes the journey comfortable. We also arrange full-day private drivers for pepper farms, caves and countryside exploration.

Why visit Kampot with a private driver?

• Flexible visits to pepper farms, salt fields and caves
• Easy day trips to Kep crab market or Bokor Hill Station
• Comfortable transfer from Phnom Penh (about 2.5–3.5 hours) or Sihanoukville

Practical tips

• Sunset river cruises are popular — book locally or ask us to arrange timing
• Pepper farm visits are best in the morning
• See our Phnom Penh to Kampot taxi and Sihanoukville to Kampot fares
