Kampot
EXPLORE kampot
"Kampot Province (ខេត្តកំពត) has emerged as one of Cambodia’s most alluring destinations thanks to a hard-to-beat combination of easy-going seaside towns and lush countryside riddled with honeycombed limestone caves."
There’s plenty to see and do after arriving in this lazy riverside town. From two days to two weeks, we can help pull together an itinerary to explore Kampot and make the most of travelling through southern Cambodia.
After a day of adventure, our staff will be on hand to serve up some happy hour specials and recommend the best spots in town to continue the fun.
Based at the foot of the mountain, Kampot is only a short ride away from Bokor National Park. Hire a moto and take a scenic ride to the top where you’ll find abandoned buildings, religious shrines and a view over the Gulf of Thailand.
Known for its world-famous pepper and (lesser known) its salt too, Kampot’s climate enables it to produce the best of the world’s most popular seasonings. Spend your day at the pepper plantation before watching the sunset over the salt fields to add a sprinkle of local delicacies to your stay.
Recommendation: Countryside Tour
A tuk tuk will collect you from Karma Traders and take you through Kampot’s serene countryside. First, you will be taken to the Pepper Plantation (stopping at the Secret Lake en route), then on to the bat caves before arriving in Kep.
Kep is a small seaside town around 45mins from Kampot, famous for its crab market, where you can indulge in fresh seafood before taking a walk along the promenade.
Once you’re finished, your tuk tuk will bring you back to us.
