Not what I expected

3.00For people reading this review and to avoid what happened to us , this tour is for when is rainy season , otherwise you will walk through the village and I was expecting to view the village by boat . Also there was no manglares to see as they were dry . So if you don’t mind taking a tour that will not meet your expectations just go in dry season as it is interesting to see the village and also the boat ride in the lake. The tour guide was very nice and accommodating as it was not his fault BUT if I had read somewhere what to expect in dry season I would had not book it Totally recommended in rainy season (I think 🤷♀️)
Great trip

5.00We had an incredible time on the Kompong Phluk Floating Village Half-Day Tour! Our guide, Mare, was absolutely fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about sharing insights into the local culture and history. Mare provided us with so much interesting information about the floating village, its people, and the unique way of life there. We really appreciated how flexible the tour was; they even made an extra stop just for us, which made the experience feel even more personal and special. The scenery was stunning, and we felt well taken care of throughout the entire trip. Everything was well-organized, and the boat ride through the village and flooded forest was truly unforgettable. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Siem Reap. It’s a perfect mix of adventure, culture, and relaxation. Thank you, Mare, and the team, for making this such a memorable experience!
