This tour was very interesting, with the guide being flexible with the schedule and stopping at several locations not included in the itinerary. Unfortunately the water level in the lake and river was low but we still saw the fishing village on stilts and the floating village on the lake. The lunchtime meal was at a local tourist restaurant and was OK. Beng Mea Lea Temple was very different to Angkor Wat in that it is largely in ruins with little reconstruction having been done. There were some steps to negotiate when walking through the temple but it was a much easier walk than the Angkor Wat/Angkor Thom tour.

This was actually my favorite temple that I visited. I liked that it was surrounded by tree and it feel like you were in the jungle. I visited this temple as a day trip which included visiting a few villages and a boat ride out to some floating houses. My guide was excellent.
