Roy is a great driver and guide, taking us expertly through all the local sights of Kampot. He is full of interesting information and stories about his life in Cambodia, and his English is excellent- would definitely recommend

Worthwhile tour. Get a good guide. Like Roy.

Really enjoyable morning in the countryside with our guide, Roy. Picked us up on time, recommended a smaller pepper farm plantation to save wasting time queuing for a tour.

Very disappointed!

My guide Aly could NOT answer most of my questions and his English wasn’t the best. He told us he was a tuk tuk driver, not really a guide. I paid over $35 Canadian for this tour and basically got a driver out of it. I was very disappointed. On a positive note, the tour at La Plantation, the pepper farm was excellent and so was the scenery of the gardens and salt flats, I just feel really ripped off because all the other reviews raved about their guide and my tour could have been so much more.

Kampot pepper farm

Janell_M, Feb 2025

Pepper farm was good, guide very good. Went to cave, fun, use the stairs to come back down. Salt ponds were interesting. Our guide Roy was very good and informative..

Amazing excursion

Diana_N, Jan 2025

The tour was really complete. Our guide Roy gave us great explanations in perfect English (other tourists stopped to listen to him). The cave tour was a lot of fun. The pancake and juice we had were delicious. There's enough time for each activity to get the most out of it. I recommend this tour.

Wanting to See Kampot in a Day? City and countryside tour with caves! Worth it!

Kate_D, Jan 2025

Great experience worth the price! Hear interesting stories, life experiences, and visit beautiful places. Highly recommend, it allows you to see great things Kampot has to offer!

Great experience in Kampot

Anais_G, Dec 2024

I had a great time! Mickey was the guide/driver and only another female solo traveller was in the group with me. We had a unique and personalized experience as it was such a small group! Mickey took us to the salt fields, the caves and shared stories, answered our questions. The drive through the rural area was the best! We also stopped at the secret lake where a refreshing drink awaited us. Finally, we spent time at the Pepper plantation and he let us take our time and enjoy the farm (shop and bar) Glad I booked this tour, 5/5

Amazing amazing amazing!

Roy was an amazing guide, so knowledgable and funny! It was really interesting to hear his stories - we especially loved his salt lake story😂 can’t recommend this tour enough!

Amazing 👏

Ewelina_R, Jun 2024

Roy was such a great guide. He took us around the countryside which was amazing. We stopped by the salt lake, a cave with a temple, saw some monkeys, secret lake and the pepper farm. What made our day and this tour special was that Roy was a great guy with so much conversation , humour and information. He gave us a choice which pepper farm we wanted to go to (La Plantation which was touristy and a family run, relaxed and calm Bo Pepper Farm). We followed his recommendation and skipped the tourist trap. Bo Pepper Farm was the highlight of our tour where we were shown around by one of the volunteer guides. I cannot recommend Roy enough.

Great day in the countryside

isabela_f, Jan 2024

We had a really nice experience with Roy. He is a good driver, his English is very good and he gave us a lot of information about the things we saw on the tour. He is also very friendly and funny so it was great to spend the day with him. So great that we booked another tour with him for the following day!

Fantastic tour guide Roy

Kimberley_B, Jun 2023

I had an excellent half day with Roy. I was the only traveller that day so I had a private tour. Roy was kind and had great knowledge about Cambodia and Kampot. His English is really good. He even gave me a face mask for the dusty roads. He took pictures of me when I asked. And dropped me off in the centre of town where I asked after. Thank you very much Roy.
