What To Expect
Kompong Phluk
Discover Kampong Phluk – The Enchanting Floating Village of Cambodia. Kampong Phluk is a mesmerizing cluster of three villages built on towering stilts within the floodplain of Tonle Sap Lake, just 16 km southeast of Siem Reap, Cambodia. This hidden gem offers a glimpse into the unique lifestyle of over 3,000 inhabitants, who adapt to the lake’s dramatic seasonal changes. A Village That Transforms with the Seasons: Dry Season (Nov–May): As the water recedes, the towering 6–8 meter stilt houses stand tall, revealing the wooden poles beneath. Many villagers move onto the lake, setting up floating houses until the rains return. Wet Season (Jun–Oct): As the Tonle Sap Lake expands, the water level rises, turning the village into a true floating community. The flooded mangrove forests surrounding the village become a sanctuary for wildlife, including crab-eating macaques and a variety of fish and birds.
Travelers stop to visit the buddhist pagoda of WAT Roga where you will learn how buddist monks and villagers reply on each other.

5.00We really enjoyed our trip to Kompong Floating Villages. We took a boat ride through the village, to see how the locals live on the water. We then took the boat out to Tonle Sap lake, which is Asia’s largest freshwater lake. We stopped at a floating restaurant on the lake, where they have food, restrooms, and some local fish/turtles/crocodiles for viewing. From there, a local woman took us on a paddle to the mangroves. As we went during dry season, the water was quite shallow and we were unable to take the boat through the mangroves. If you visit during rainy/wet season, you will be able to do so. Our driver/guide, Mr. Lim, was exceptional. He was very friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. We enjoyed our day with Mr. Lim and enjoyed the tour he provided us. We also enjoyed learning about Cambodian people, their culture and way of life. Would highly recommend this tour!

3.00The actual tour was interesting but going by Tuk tuk was a big mistake as the road is appalling, so very uncomfortable. The visit to the Buddhist monastery was great. We had to buy our own drinks on the lake but the driver did give us a gift after our tour as a thank you which was a nice touch.
