Kampot to Koh Rong Destination Reviews

There were only 7 of us at the pier on a sunny day and the person at the desk said it had been cancelled due to bad weather. It wasn’t bad weather at all. We then had a 3 hour bus ride which was awful. It added so much more time to our journey we had originally booked. I think they didn’t want to run a boat that only had 7 people on. That’s what we all paid for

Weather was too bad to travel from Kampot, so we quickly got transferred onto a bus to Sihanoukville and put on a boat from there. Barely any difference in arrival time! Staff were lovely, vehicles comfortable and all round a good journey. Thank you!

When I arrived at the station they looked like they didn’t even know I was coming and had to check my ticket 5 times, then the van came, very small and in bad conditions. The van was full, there was no AC for 2 hours and the roads were terrible. Also I was supposed to arrive at 12:05pm on the island but when we arrived at the pier they said the next ferry was at 12:00 so I arrived after 1pm, over an hour later than scheduled.

Poor service, booked the 9:30am ferry with allocated seats but they had oversold the ferry massively. They prioritised locals getting on first and the foreigners (who probably paid more for the ticket) all had to wait 2 hours for the next one. Got a drink as compensation lol

The driver was nice but there was no AC which was hard in 28 degree heat. The van also broke down and overheated but we only had to wait half an hour for another bus.
