An excellent, unique tour of the great Tonle Sap Lake, and the beautiful floating village of Kompong Phluk. You'll be able to relax on the largest boat on the lake with an all-inclusive sunset dinner buffet and unlimited drinks. An excellent choice for families, single travelers or groups. See the real Cambodian life on the Tonle Sap Lake's floating villages before cruising out to enjoy a special sunset over the lake from a unique setting.This is a unique chance to explore the lake and flooded forest while taking in the beautiful village of Kompong Phluk, followed by watching a beautiful sunset aboard our floating restaurant, in the heart of the floating village. Departing at 12pm, your guide will collect you in our air conditioned minivan from your hotel, or guesthouse in Siem Reap, then proceed to the floating village, approx. 15km (9.2 miles) south of Siem Reap. On arrival you will proceed to the checkpoint where a private boat is waiting to take you on to the river. From there you'll proceed through the floating village and onto the great lake itself before cruising east to Kompong Phluk. Along the way there are many fishing boats and nets set up as this is the main industry out on the Tonle Sap. The lake is not only the world’s most productive fresh water fishing lake, but also South East Asia's largest.
Arriving in Kompong Phluk, we have another smaller boat to explore the flooded forest and, depending on the seasonal water levels, we either explore the township and pagodas by boat or walking on foot as the river can vary by 0.5 meter deep to nearly 8 meters deep. The township itself is quite small with approximately 3,000 people calling it home, with only one main street, or river, depending on the time of year. You'll see village life by taking a visit to the local school, a pagoda with the monks and watching local people go about their day to day working life along with some of the jobs they do. Get a taste of the real Cambodia away from the main tourist areas as a part of the days program. From there, you'll proceed back out onto the great lake and head west before coming to dock with our floating restaurant in time for a delicious meal with unlimited drinks to choose from, including cocktails, beers, wine, spirits and soft drinks. All whilst watching the beautiful sunset over the Tonle Sap Lake from the unique views the viewing deck gives you. From there you will be taken back to your hotel, or guesthouse, having had a very special and unique experience.
All meals and drinks are included with the tour.
Don’t miss this tour, as it is one of the best on the lake, which takes in both the floating villages and the stilted homes, as well as the flooded forest and the sunset.
