How to get in Kampot
There are regular twice a day bus services from Phnom Penh to Kampot three companies: Hua Lin near Olympic Market, Capitol near Orasay Market and second rate Phnom Phen Sorya (which is usually late for at least 30min on all the routes it runs) from the bus station on 217th street (near the central market). Buses leave early (around 7-7:30) or around midday. Expect to pay around US$6 for the bus (one way); you may get a free pick-up. Journey takes, depending on road conditions, approximately 4-5 hours.
Many guesthouses in Phnom Penh offer transportation directly from the guesthouse to Kampot. Convenient, although slightly more expensive. Expect to pay US$8 or more.
You can also get to Kampot from Sihanoukville by a shared taxi or minibus or with Sorya bus. Most taxis depart from the traffic pickup point next to the market. Two hour drive, US$3-5/person (although they start off asking $5 or more). The bus operators can help arrange a minibus with pickup at your guesthouse also. The shared taxi (Camry) would fit in 7 passengers, 4 at the back, 2 at front passenger seat and one next to the driver.
Driving from Sihanoukville to Kampot on a 100cc rented Honda can be lots of fun but if road conditions are poor may take 3.5 hours or more.
