Steve Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 I didn't make it there when I was in Cambo this past spring. I have a question regarding this town. I've always heard its a nice, quiet town on the ocean and I should definitely try to make it there when I'm in Cambo again. A friend of mine who traveled with me was reading about Cambo on various sites, etc. in anticipation of his next trip and read a post where someone said that in their experience it was more dangerous than PP. That falangs are sometimes routinely robbed of money. Has this been any of your experiences? I have always heard it was a nice, quiet place.

chuckwoww Posted October 29, 2006 Report Share Posted October 29, 2006 It used to be a quiet place Steve. I haven't been there for a few years so that may have changed.

colorwolf Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 i lived in cambodia for 6 years but never heard of "sihounikville"...perhaps you're trying to spell sihanoukville? snookyville, or kompong som, is a true shithole. go to kampot instead, rent a moped, cruise around, swim and dine at kep...

Steve Posted October 30, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 My spelling is for shit. but i have a sneaking suspicion you're being a naughty pedant. :smirk: Thanks for your observations. We'll probably visit anyway on a tour just to see for ourselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trooper Posted October 30, 2006 Report Share Posted October 30, 2006 It's not excactly a paradise on earth and the beach is nothing compared to better ones in Thailand. We went to have a pizza in some Italian restaurant and the owner was furious because the day before an old farang couple was robbed and killed with machetes in daylight. The Italian guy then guided us to the "chicken farm" and that was a sight I will never forget . Dirt road with cows running around and small shacks where miserable looking young girls were selling themselves. That was three years ago, maybe things have changed. It was ok to rent a motorcycle drive around but at night time I didn't feel too safe there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WINEDINE69 Posted November 4, 2006 Report Share Posted November 4, 2006 As I've never been there I'm sure ur right. I'm only passing on what I've heard. A farang woman who travelled throughout Cambodia said that and another farnag man backed it up but honestly I don't know. U sound like u've been there why don't u add some personal insight cause I was put off going there because of what I'd heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
