About this activity

Be picked up from Siem Reap at 8:30am and travel through small, beautiful, rural villages and rice fields towards the great lake. Depending on the time of year and the current water levels, you will go as far as you can by road to where your boats will be waiting for you. Travel the rest of the way by boat down the river and into the main village.

The village is home to approximately 3,000 people, predominately Khmer fishing people. Depending on the time of year, you will either sail on through the main street of the village (when the water is high the roads become a river) or walk along it in the low water level season. Either way, it’s a great opportunity to see how the rural fishing villages live and go about their daily tasks.

From there, transfer into a small boat to row you through the flooded forest of Kompong Phluk (or if the water levels are low we walk through the treetop canopy walkway). Then proceed onto the great lake and see the small floating village. Your tour ends with transportation back to your hotel or guesthouse.

We booked the tour 2 days before, and we really enjoyed the experience. The guide was friendly and amazingly knowledgeable. We learnt a lot about the local area where people live closely to the lake as well as history etc. If you are a bit bored with sightseeing Angkor Wat, this tour is the one you should go for!
