What To Expect
Kampong Phluk Floating Village
At Kampong Phluk we hop in a boat and explore, taking in the beautiful waterways and charming houses on stilts. In dry season you'll be able to see the watermarks on the beams showing how high the waters rise, and in wet season you'll see the villagers and fishermen going about their business by boat.
Tonle Sap Lake
Going out on the Tonle Sap itself is a deeply calming experience thanks to the still waters meeting the horizon as far as you can see. We round off the day with a drink (and dinner, if you wish) at a traditional floating restaurant to watch the sun set over the lake.

3.00I’ve seen other people have the same issue. The tour started wonderful. It was interesting to get a glimpse of local life. Then we got to one house where there was an older lady sat outside. The tour guide kept emphasising how poor she was and it just felt uncomfortable and inappropriate to be stopped watching her with people taking photos as he keeps saying how poor she is and how bad her quality of life is. We then were taken to an area and they said “if you want to support the community you should do this canoein” (which is an extra $6 pp). It felt like guilt tripping even though we had already paid for the tour. We chose not to do this and this is where things took a turn for the worst. We felt Tom immediately changed his tone towards us. and were taken to a restaurant and advertised as an alligator farm. There was one baby alligator in a barrel with very little water and no food. We were put in a position where we had to buy a drink (all $1.50 or above, which is quite expensive for Cambodia!!). We sat and waited for the group and reluctantly purchased a drink we didn’t really want or need. As we were drinking it, the tour guide sat next to me and insisted I left a good review and named him personally. I was having issues with connection and he took my phone to connect me to Wifi and asked to see my review before I posted. When I had completed it he even clicked post for me. At the start of the tour he was saying “your reviews are important because without them, I won’t have work tomorrow”. I would have happily left a review but I felt I couldn’t be honest as he was watching me write it and I felt very pressured and guilt trippy again!
Great trip
