Why Kampot works
Good to know
Kampot is best planned as a slower stop rather than a rushed transfer. Leave room for the riverfront, nearby countryside and day trips.

Riverfront stays, pepper country and easygoing southern Cambodia.
MORE FOR YOUR TRIP
Useful travel tools.
Getting there
Most visitors arrive overland from Phnom Penh, Kep or the Sihanoukville area. Compare the exact arrival point before booking because bus and van operators may stop in different places.
Where to stay
Town center and riverfront for walking access; farther riverside stays for quieter views and resort-style properties.
Getting around
Tuk-tuks and private drivers are useful for local trips. Self-drive options should only be considered when the traveler is licensed, insured and comfortable with local conditions.
Before you go
Do not assume every intercity ticket arrives at the same station. Save the operator name and exact drop-off point.
