Phnom Penh to Kep Destination Reviews

The driver was very professional, on the véhicule you have usb plug and the team give you a bottle of water. Nothing to say it was perfect !

We tried Sima car again, but unfortunately, it did not change the mixed impression we had from our previous trip with the company. This time, the driver did arrive in an SUV, unlike the other driver last time. We found it, however, completely unacceptable that almost a third of the boot was occupied by the driver’s luggage, making it impossible for us to fit all of ours in there. Consequently, we had no choice but to stow some of our luggage between our legs and on our laps, despite the fact that we had specifically booked for four suitcases. Additionally, we expected the driver to focus on the road rather than being distracted by his two mobile phones throughout the drive.

The trip was on time and efficient. The coach though, unfortunately was nowhere near as comfortable as the coach from Ho Chi Minh city to Phnom Penh, we were spoilt with our first experience, but still good.

Train

Train is a often a great choice for long-haul travel especially if you opt for a night sleeper train with berths which will allow you to sleep all your journey through. To make the most of your train journey, choose the class of your ticket wisely.

Note that there are air-conditioned and fan-only carriages; private compartments for 2 or 4; hard and soft seats.
Though the upper class you get the smoother is your journey, often second class air-conditioned or fan-only sleepers are a good money saving alternative.

Van

Vans are a great alternative - or, in many cases - your only option - if you need to travel overland within one and the same province or neighbouring provinces or states. Vans ply the roads between Phnom Penh and Kep, too.

Things to remember: When travelling by van with huge luggage buying a separate seat for your suitcase or backpack is a good idea. Do not expect there is a roomy luggage compartment in a van - there is actually none and your fellow passengers are unlikely to appreciate your luggage stuck under their feet, alas.
