Great tour of the cool things around Kampot - Phalla is an amazing tour guide. He is phenomenal at explaining the history and culture of all the places you went to. He has great English and is able to answer any question you ask. All of the site were awesome to see and it was a perfect length tour

Fantastic 2 days exploring the countryside - Phalla is a legend. Timely, kind, helpful, easy to chat to, full of answers for all the questions and just a genuinely nice guy. Travelling with my 4yo daughter meant plans diverted a little during our Kampot tour and Phalla was understanding in changing our day to suit. He even carried my backpack when my daughter needed me to carry her. I then organised a second day with him to visit Kep and had another great day - he is so accommodating. Highly recommend him for an easy and informative exploration of the areas. Thanks so much Phalla.

Wonderful Tuktuk tour of the local sights - NB this tour starts in Kampot! I spent a wonderful half day being driven round in the back of Phalla’s Tuktuk, visiting the local sights. I booked this via TripAdvisor and then received a WhatsApp from Phalla confirming the details. Phalla picked me up from my hotel in Kep (I didn’t realise that it was supposed to start from Kampot and so was happy to pay him an extra $15 to come all the way to pick me up and drop me back afterwards) and took me on a wonderful tour. He was very nice, his English was very good, he drove carefully and nothing was too much trouble for him (he insisted on buying me a mask because he said the road was going to be dusty and then put the side flaps down when it started to rain heavily). The stops themselves were very informative. La Plantation FairTrade and Organic peppercorn and spice farm was phenomenal (I was amazed that the tour and tasting were free of charge), the story of the secret lake (dug by hand by enslaved locals during the reign of the Khmer Rouge as part of their bid to convert the whole of Cambodia to a rice monoculture) was heartrending, the 7th Century brick temple hidden in a bat-filled cave was wonderful and the salt fields would have been very interesting has it not been for the fact that they don’t operate in the rainy season (which Phalla had warned me about so I hadn’t been disappointed. He even bought me a green coconut juice and then cut it up for me so I could eat the flesh as well. This was a really good way to see the area and I felt safe in Phalla’s hands. I definitely recommend it.

A great day out! - I had such a great day of exploring Kampot with Phalla. I was the only one who booked that day so essentially had a private tour! It was really great to get out into the countryside and see some of the more rural areas of Cambodia, as well as the pepper plantation tour. Phalla was friendly, with good English and very knowledgeable. I would recommend! Thank you, Marnie

2 days around Kampot & Kep - I spent two days with Phalla - 1/2 day around Kampot: visit the cave, salt marsh, secret lake pepper plantation (planting) - one day in Kep: visit the Point of Sale, the city I also took the opportunity to spend the afternoon on Rabbit Island a few km from Kep by boat I recommend, he is a trusted person and his turn is very interesting
