During your visit, you can also enjoy complimentary tastings of selected pepper products prepared at the farm.
We spend around 2 hours at the farm, giving you time to explore, relax, or enjoy the café and restaurant area (not included).

What To Expect
Salt Fields
Salt is another of Kampot’s important products. Ocean water is pumped into the pans from canals, then allowed to evaporate, leaving a thick layer of salt coating the ground. Workers rake the salt carefully into piles, collecting and moving it to storage. The salt field only operate in the dry season.

5.00Lovely day out to salt marshes and pepper farm. Our guide spoke excellent English and answered all our many questions about the salt marshes. After we went to a local pepper farm, Bo farm and were shown around. We were told all about how the pepper is grown and harvested. We got to taste all the different types of kampot peppers. Enjoyed some pepper beer at the farm shop. Unfortunately had run out of pepper ice cream. Took approximately 4 hours.
Amazing!

5.00I really enjoyed the experience. The guide, Romly, explained everything very well and was always very helpful, attentive to details, and constantly made sure I was comfortable. The tour itself is interesting, with special emphasis on the church inside the cave and, of course, the pepper plantation. I highly recommend it.
