- Salt Fields - Begin your journey with a transfer out of town to explore the Salt Fields. Witness the diligent work of farmers in these fields. Cambodia is known for exporting a variety of products, including salt. The country produces enough salt for both domestic use and export, with most production occurring in Kampot, near the sea.
- Phnom Chhngok Cave Temple - Travel to Phnom Chhngok Cave Temple. The journey along the winding dirt road, especially by motorbike, can be quite exhausting. However, the scenic views of the Cambodian countryside, featuring paddy fields, small farms, and limestone formations covered in lush vegetation, make it worthwhile. The mountain is a towering limestone karst with hidden chambers, rocky outcrops, and stalactites formed by calcium carbonate solution. The largest cave houses an ancient red brick temple beneath a massive rock formation resembling an eagle. Phnom Chhngok Cave Temple likely dates back to the 7th century, during the pre-Angkorian Funan period in Cambodia.
- Brateak Krola Lake - Secret Lake, or Brateak Krola Lake, is not actually a lake but a dam. Constructed with forced labor during the Khmer Rouge era, it is a vast body of water, especially for a man-made structure. The journey is truly rewarding, offering a glimpse of the Cambodia many hope to discover.
- BoTree Farm - After visiting Phnom Chhngok Cave Temple, continue the trip to Kampot pepper farm. This is an ideal place to learn about the history of Kampot Pepper and its traditional and organic production methods. Discover why Kampot Pepper has been acclaimed as the #1 Best Pepper in the world by chefs and food enthusiasts for over a century.

Khmer Kulture - Our driver Chiet was knowledgeable, friendly and provided a relaxed atmosphere in a leisurely drive through Cambodian countryside.
The attractions visited were very picturesque and the tour was not overly long or strenuous (except for many stairs leading up to the Cave Temple).
I would definitely recommend this tour to others as a must-do when in Kampot

EXCEPTIONAL - Exciting guided tour in French of more than two hours with tasting for a low price in a plantation focused on a strong eco-responsible and societal approach (payment of part of the dividends to schools, free school support courses offered within the company, above average salaries, social insurance for employees....). All to offer us an exceptional product.

Great excursion, with too little information in advance - The tour itself was great and we learned many informative things.
Unfortunately, our tour guide did not contact us until the morning of the tour. We therefore turned to the banana age the night before. He informed us that we would be picked up at the hotel and what time.
The tour guide charged $5 on the day of the tour, for hotel pickup. This we did not find ok. He justified this as a private tour. Would have loved to be informed in advance.

Great Experience, Excellent Guide - Our guide, Roy was great, a safe and careful driver, informative and entertaining. We would thoroughly recommend Roy and this tour, it’s a great half day out.
We had the choice of visiting one of two pepper plantations. We chose the locally run plantation, Bo Tree Farm and we were pleased that we did as the experience there felt much more natural and rewarding.

Relaxed driver and tour. - Rany was suggested to us by a fellow traveller. We easily booked an afternoon tour with him, and he picked us up in town.
Rany drives very carefully, and showed us interesting places, as promised.
It was a great day!

Great activities - Wandon, our tuk-tuk driver, also acted as our guide. He had a great sense of humor, spoke fluent English, and knew the sites we were going to visit perfectly, and much more. I highly recommend him. Be prepared, however, for a bumpy road to reach the cave.

A perfect half day tour... - A perfect half day tour to see interesting places in Kampot. Roy was a great guide, I had a good time. The pepper farm is a must see, we also stayed for lunch there.

Really disappointing. - It was not really a guided tour but a tuk tuk that takes you one from one point to another: very few explanations and especially there are much more complete tours (with kep included in it and lunch) for much less... we were very disappointed! Only the visit to the plantation was really good but we can go alone
