Additional Info
Suitable for all physical fitness levels
The end of March to the end of June is a crucial time in all the floating villages in Siem Reap, as the water levels start to recede and present a unique opportunity for tourists to experience a new perspective. Although the picturesque landscape of the floating community may lose some of its charm during this time, visitors have a chance to immerse themselves in the daily life of the villagers living in the dried season. While some boats may become stuck, and smaller canoes are unable to traverse the jungle forest, these challenges add to the thrill of the experience. The dry season in floating village of Kompong Phluk may not be the ideal time to visit for those seeking postcard-perfect photos, but it offers a chance to witness a facet of the village’s daily life that is not typically seen. As they say, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. We recommend visitors to embrace this rare chance to witness a different facet of this incredible destination and truly get a different taste of life in the village.
Dress code: All visitors are not allowed to wear as shorts as you want for this experience. Please make sure that your knees and shoulders are covered.
For small group tour is limited to 14 participants to ensure a more personal experience from our guide.
What should to bring: Insect repellent, sunscreen, sun hat.
For lunch, there is a vegetarian option like fried rice vegetable with eggs and fried spring rolls, but no vegan option.
Cancellation Policy
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

5.00An unforgettable experience. Our guide Jan and the driver Sothea were amazing. We spent more than 10 hours with them and all the stops were interesting and full of surprises. Jan's passion for his country makes a big difference to this tour. I highly recommend this tour to everyone. From the start to the end this tour is perfectly organised.

5.00The guide mr Sam and the driver mr Thera did their best to give us the best experience. All went well! The tour is interesting, even if there are many things in the same day. It is good if you are short on time but if you have more days in siem reap it is a bit rushed, maybe try a version with less items on the itinerary.
Kulen Mountains have lots of great spots to visit. Local guides know where to go.

We visited couple of great spots in Kulen Mountains: Poeng Ta Kho lookout spot, 1000 lingams with natural springs, Big Reclining Buddha and of course Phnom Kulen Waterfall.
Unforgottable, well-organized tour in the rural area! It is comfortable in every age.

5.00Our daily tour was really amazing and well-organized. Our tour guide, Mr. August is well-prepared and very friendly. We’d got a lot of information about Cambodia, about living here and also their culture and religious as well. We were at a lot of spaces, this programme is very various, temple, boat-ride on Sap Lake, waterfalls, Visiting Kulen mountain. Our driver, Soael, always gave us fresh water during all day, Our lunch was really delicious and romantic near the waterfalls. I think we’d get the places there! Very clean restrooms was reachable all along the tour. Our bus was really new one, air-conditioned and comfortable. It hadn’t hurry, for everything we had enough time. I recommend to everyone their tours, This experience is unforgottable! Thanks a lot! 🙏🏻🥰

5.00To be honest, this was the best tour we had in southeast Asia. Until now, we weren't upset at all, but this one was truly special. First i want to appreciate our gouide Mony and driver Mr. Moon as their service was excellent. The tour itself is extremely well prepared, starting with pick up, then all the stops including lunch. All the stops are really nice, our favourite was the last one at the floating village with sunset. I also appreciate that Mony gave us insights in the lives of local people, that the company itself helps the local people and that there were nor pressure at buying items at all, we even got some gifts (ananas, local scarf, PLENTY of water,...) so in the end it was worth every penny. Thank you so much.
Amazing Tour!
