Where we are
We are less than 2 km upriver of the bridge in Tatai. There is no road access to Rainbow Lodge, so we will pick you up from the bridge, and bring you here in our boat.
Getting here
You can get to Tatai by private taxi or bus. There are buses from Phnom Penh, Sihanoukville and Kampot. You can also come by bus from Siem Reap but that would be via Phnom Penh, and you would have to change buses there. There are even night buses from Siem Reap to Phnom Penh, if you don’t want to spend a night there. You should get a Koh Kong bus but asked to be dropped off in Tatai, which is 20 km before Koh Kong.
We can help book private taxis from Phnom Penh, Sihanoukville, Kampot, Kep, Battambang and Siem Reap. If you have your own transport, you can park your car or motorbike under the bridge, for which there is a daily charge of 10000៛ (approx. $2.50) for cars, and 5000៛ (approx. $1.25) for motorbikes. We can also booked seats in shared taxis from Phnom Penh, Sihanoukville, Kampot and Battambang. With shared taxies from Battambang, we can even arrange a tuk tuk or taxi to meet you at the junction, to save you going to Koh Kong. All taxis from Battambang use National Road 10, through the Cardamom Mountains.
If you are coming from the island of Koh Rong, we recommend the Boonsiri ferry company, which has a port in Dara Sakor, Koh Kong Province. They also have a bus service that runs between there and their port at Ban Had Lek, Thailand. You can book ferry tickets that include the bus, and ask them to drop you in Tatai.
From Thailand, you should cross the border at Ban Had Lek, from where you can get a tuk tuk or taxi to bring you to Tatai. We can prebook this for you, to save you the hassle and the haggling! If you are coming from Koh Chang, Koh Mak or Koh Kood, we recommend the Boonsiri ferry company, which has a port at Ban Had Lek, only 9 km from the border. They also have a bus service that runs between there and their port in Dara Sakor, Koh Kong Province. You can book ferry tickets that include the bus, and ask them to drop you in Tatai.
