Floating Village Tour Itinerary

On the morning of your tour, you'll be picked up from your hotel in Siem Reap and head to the river port to board a boat. As you cruise up the river, you will pass the luscious green rice paddies, vital to the country's economy.

Sailing up the river, you'll reach traditional Cambodian pagodas, markets, and houses where locals live their daily lives. The village of Kampong Phluk consists of wooden buildings constructed upon stilts in Tonle Sap Lake, making it a true floating village.
