- Tang GoKampot, Cambodia3 contributionsLa Plantation is the best pepper in Kampot. They offer you the free tour English and French with nice tour guide. After the tour they also have pepper testing very educational to pairing spices. I recommend to visit there.Written 25 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Mary VKep, Cambodia47 contributionsThe views are wonderful. The history and houses of the royal family is interesting, including one for the King's mistress. The temple, old and new is the best part of the visit, along with the Christain church built a a century ago. Limited food so bring a picnic. Casino is not worth your time.Written 11 February 2021This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- avril wNorthamptonshire, UK116 contributionsWe hired a moped and rode to the temple fromKampot. The first part of the journey was easy, along a surfaced road. However, once we turned off (following a sign to Climbodia), the road became a bumpy, dusty track with no signs to direct us. What I would suggest is, when you come to a fork in the road, ask a local which way to go. It will save you getting lost like we did!
Once we got close to the temple, we were approached by girls at a house/shop and told we had to park our bike there and pay them for ‘security’. That was not the case and we rode a bit further and left our bike by the ‘Police officer’ at the steps up to the temple. However, he charged us a dollar - entrance or parking?
We were again approached by girls from the house offering to be our guide. The Police Officer said it would only cost us a dollar or two, so we hired one of the girls. We were glad that we did. As well as telling us about the temple, rock formations and local farmland, she was able to guide us out a different way - down through the cave complex! We were glad that we had sensible sandals on as it was quite difficult in places, but a great experience, unlike anything we had done before. We tipped the girl $5 at the end as we enjoyed the challenge.
She gave us clear directions to the secret lake which we found without getting lost. We passed some interesting farmland on the way. Then we headed to La Plantation.Written 27 February 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

You can’t missed it.
According to info available, Lok Yeay Mao is the protector of the sea. Visitors would stop by to pay respects, pray for journey safety and protection.
I noticed that by the side of the giant statue there was a row of 12 animals, each with a small tin box in front.
I think the animals represent the 12 Chinese zodiac signs. One particular animal (the pig I think) has got a few cash notes stalked in front of its face whereas the rest were largely empty.
It was a cool day and a great spot for photos.Written 24 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The slide is beautiful and you get your adrenaline shot! Even if you don't do the slide, the landscape is beautiful and you can just come to enjoy the river

The place is small but combines everything you need to know about the production of Kampot pepperWritten 18 February 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Jonnie KSiem Reap, Cambodia306 contributionsAn excellent excursion for a family, or alone, if you like ruins and empty houses. Nice to just walk around and look.

- Scott BMelbourne, Australia28 contributionsThanks Jeff for hosting us today... what a complete legend! Jet boat was a sensational way to see the river and local scenery. So much fun!!! Lunch, cocktails, pool table, water slide were all appreciated and good fun. Highly recommended!!!Written 27 January 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- ServusMarkus5 contributionsVery nice views from the top, you can see all the way to Sihanoukville and Phu Quoc island. It is fresh so it is good to take a jacket with you. There are quite a lot of buildings being built but still a lot of natural areas. We enjoyed the Popokvil waterfall the most !!Written 29 August 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Michael TSingapore, Singapore2,112 contributionsMy friends and I made a pit stop at the Old Catholic Church while driving up Bokor Mountain.
The church was built by the French in 1920s but it had been deserted, and left in a sorry state.
The church building has a interesting hexagonal brick exterior which is not commonly seen.
The altar is largely intact but the building itself is otherwise gutted, without furniture and decorative items.
The grounds appeared to be quite clean and well looked after.
Good spot for photos.Written 24 March 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- JMB50Sprowston, UK420 contributionsArrived here by tuc tuc which was a fun ride. We have a most interesting guided tour of the plantation and learn about the different types of pepper. We are also given the opportunity to taste the different peppers and there is definitely a noticeable difference in their flavours.
I also enjoyed a delicious lunch here and was able to have a pepper flavoured ice cream which I would definitely recommend.
