The Kampi Dolphin Pool is one of the most famous spots in Kratie to witness the rare Irrawaddy dolphins. Here's how you can get there:
Although Kratie does not have its own airport, visitors can fly into Cambodia's capital, Phnom Penh, and then proceed by land. The nearest airport is the Phnom Penh International Airport (PNH).
From Phnom Penh: The journey from Phnom Penh to Kratie can take around 6 to 8 hours. There are several bus companies that operate between Phnom Penh and Kratie. Tickets can be purchased directly at the bus station, online, or through your hotel.
From Siem Reap: Buses or minivans also run from Siem Reap to Kratie. This trip can take 7 to 10 hours depending on the mode of transport you choose.
