Kep<\/b><\/p>

After having visited the temples of Angkor and bustling Phnom Penh, Kep offers a completely different vibe, embodying a truly Cambodian ambience<\/strong> with its relaxed atmosphere. It offers guests a chance to explore at a leisurely pace<\/strong> and unwind in its tranquil coastal environment. The sublime Knai Bang Chatt<\/strong><\/a> resort is the perfect base, fusing local design elements with modern amenities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

A noteworthy addition is Kep’s new private beach club<\/strong>, Kep West<\/a><\/strong>, which presents an upscale yet relaxed setting complete with lounge chairs, umbrellas and dining options.

Kampot<\/b><\/p>

Nestled along a picturesque river, Kampot is a captivating Cambodian town that is an ideal stop for a night or two. In addition to the laid-back vibe and blend of local architectural styles<\/strong>, Kampot boasts a range of activities in its surrounding countryside.\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

EXO\u2019s favourite experience in Kampot is exploring the nearby mangrove forests.<\/strong>\u00a0The visit, which includes a boat trip and planting a mangrove, is not only a discovery of Cambodia\u2019s natural beauty<\/strong> but also a great opportunity to learn about vital environmental issues and the work being done to protect mangroves. \u2018The mangrove experience is a highlight and can be incorporated into the trip between Kampot and Kep,\u2019 Sophie explains. \u2018Additionally, the area’s salt fields and countryside caves<\/strong> present opportunities for exploration and discovery.\u2019<\/span><\/p>

The recent addition of Rivertree Villa and other charming hotels further enhances Kampot\u2019s appeal, offering comfortable accommodation<\/strong> to complement the serene experience.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

The islands<\/b><\/p>

Cambodia\u2019s southern islands are slowly finding their way onto the tourist map thanks to a growing number of high-quality, boutique hotels<\/strong> and resorts.\u00a0 Koh Rong, Koh Krabey and Song Saa are EXO\u2019s preferred islands. \u2018Here, the beaches are authentic and relaxed. The landscape is what you see in postcards- very white sands, blue and crystal-clear water and super quiet,\u2019 Sophie explains. \u2018Our preferred resorts are focused for people who want to have a truly relaxing break.<\/strong> No parties, no nightlife- just the beach and nature.\u2019<\/span><\/p>

At the top end, <\/span>Song Saa Private Island Resort<\/strong><\/a> and Six Senses Krabey Island<\/a> <\/strong>both offer a barefoot luxury vibe<\/strong> with impeccable, discreet service and beautiful rooms and facilities. On Koh Rong, The Royal Sands<\/a> <\/strong>has 67 villas stretched along its 400-metre private beach<\/strong>. The island also boasts several good mid-range options i<\/strong>ncluding La Passion and Anaya Koh Rong. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Getting to the south is easier than ever. From the Cambodian capital, Phnom Penh, to Kep takes around 2.5 hours by car.

Getting there:\u00a0<\/b>Thanks to improved infrastructure, getting to the south is easier than ever. From the Cambodia capital, Phnom Penh, to Kep takes around 2.5 hours by car along a smooth, modern highway road. There is also a <\/span>leisurely, scenic train<\/strong> from Phnom Penh to Kep for those who love rail travel.<\/span><\/p>

Travelling from Kep to Kampot is a 40 minute drive<\/strong>, meaning guests can choose one or the other destination for overnighting in rather than splitting their stay if they wish. Continuing on to Sihanoukville and the islands takes a further three hours.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>

For those wishing to travel directly to the islands, the journey starts with a 3-3.5 hours by road from Phnom Penh,<\/strong> followed by a boat trip of 30-60 minutes. There is also a short daily direct flight from Siem Reap to Sihanoukville<\/strong> followed by a boat trip, a convenient alternative for those with limited time.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Planning a trip: <\/b>The south is a great place to wrap up a Cambodia journey. EXO recommends at least three nights in the region to give time to unwind and appreciate the natural surroundings. This can be spent on an island or by mixing two nights in Kep and one night in Kampot. For those with more time, a five-night stay can encompass Kep, Kampot and time on the islands. As an example, we suggest looking at our <\/span>Blend of the South<\/a><\/strong> journey.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
