Then we decided to go a bit further afield and as there were 4 of us, it was cheaper to hire a tuk tuk for the day instead of hiring 2 bikes. So after some hard negotiating we were on our way. First stop was to some caves about 30km away from Kep and it was a great disappointment.
As it is rainy season, The Caves are completely flooded, but of course no one was willing to tell this when planning our adventure, especially not the tuk tuk driver, or when paying The Entrance fees when we arrived.
So we could only go just inside The Entrance and even though we said countless times that we didn’t want a guide, 7 children joined us adamant that they would offer their guide services to us.
But I’m sure they are great to look around during the dry season, but during wet season it is a waste of money for both transport and entrance fees. But then again we have seen many caves, so I’m sure we didn’t miss much. After this, we went to a pepper Plantation was which in fact really interesting.
Kampot pepper is really famous and quite possibly the best pepper you can buy and we even got to try some.
Me though, hating anything spicy or very peppery embarrassingly had to spit it out. Then in the evening, back to Kimley’s restaurant for the tasty crab dish again!
