Traveling by train in Cambodia is a unique experience that not many people have had. I had the chance to explore the Phnom Penh β Kampot β Sihanoukville railway route with Royal Railway Cambodia and it became one of my most unforgettable trips.
The Journey
The Royal Railway brought me through scenic landscapes, peaceful villages, and lush greenery. The slow pace of the train allowed me to fully immerse myself in the beauty of Cambodiaβs countryside.
The Vibes
- The old classic train design gave a nostalgic feeling.
- Friendly passengers, relaxed atmosphere, and the ability to move around freely made the journey very comfortable.
- The stops along the way provided great chances to capture beautiful moments and connect with local people.
Destinations
- Phnom Penh: The heart of Cambodia, where the journey began.
- Kampot: A quiet, charming town with riverside views and peaceful surroundings.
- Sihanoukville: A seaside escape that welcomed me with beaches and refreshing sea air.

I have recently started to travel by train in India.
Last week, I traveled to Delhi for the India Mega meetup, attended by 60 local guides.
The facilities inside the train were comparable to those in an aircraft, which I have used extensively.
Your experience encourages me to travel more by train.
Excellent photos @SophatCHY
Especially the first photo is brilliant
