Kampot Railway Station: trains to Phnom Penh

Where the station is

The Kampot Railway Station listing marks the station north of the old town on National Road 3. Arrange a tuk-tuk or other suitable transport from your accommodation, particularly with luggage or in the heat. Share the station pin rather than asking for a bridge or bus office.

Fares and timetables

The directory records BootsnAll's 4 October 2026 check as listing Phnom Penh-Kampot trains from about US$10 through Royal Railway / Easybook. That is a dated secondary-source starting price, not a confirmed current fare for a Kampot-to-Phnom Penh departure.

Check the booking details for your travel date, direction and ticket type. Confirm that the service is running, the departure station and time, check-in requirements, luggage terms and any booking fees before paying or leaving your accommodation. Do not assume a fixed daily departure or a dawn start.

If the train does not fit

The Giant Ibis guide covers a bus alternative. The same recorded October price check quoted buses around US$8, but that is not a current fare guarantee or proof that every direction and departure costs the same.

Compare the actual available departures, journey arrangements and total price. The Giant Ibis office is listed on Street 724 in the old town; confirm your boarding point directly, because a ticket office is not necessarily the departure location.

Station on National Road 3, office on Street 724

Royal Railway Kampot and Kampot railway station refer to the train destination covered here. The newer bridge, the old-town streets and the Giant Ibis office are separate places. Give your driver the operator name, exact pin and agreed arrival time.

Keep enough time for the ride and the operator's required check-in. Reconfirm your departure details before leaving; a general search for Kampot bus station should not send you to the railway by mistake.

Old-town food stops, separate from your departure

Simple Things, at 54 Street 724, is a vegetarian and vegan food option in the old-market block. Check service times if you are eating before a bus departure or between coffee stops.

Aroma House, at 33 Street 722, is another old-town meal option for hummus, shawarma and bread. Use the listing to check contact details before a late arrival.

Both are town businesses, not station facilities or confirmed boarding points. The railway requires a separate ride north; allow the operator's check-in time and confirm any bus pickup. This editorial shortlist is not a paid-placement ranking.
