Floating Village Sunset Boat & Jeep Tour inclusive Drinks

Explore Siem Reap beyond the temples with a sunset boat ride through Kompong Phluk, a jeep tour of the countryside, and a glimpse into local life.

After being picked up from your hotel by jeep, head south of Siem Reap through the beautiful Cambodian countryside. Your first stop is a local family's house surrounded by rice paddies. Here, you’ll be offered a cold coconut or local juice while you meet the family and learn about their farming lifestyle. This peaceful setting gives you a chance to experience the heart of rural Cambodia.

Next, visit a local mushroom farm and factory to discover how mushrooms are grown using modern techniques. Learn about the sustainable methods employed in farming and how this process supports the community. Then, continue to a rice wine distillery where you can sample traditional Cambodian rice wine, brewed using centuries-old techniques that have been passed down through generations.

The journey continues to the floating villages of Tonle Sap Lake, the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia. This region is home to thousands of people who live in stilted houses and rely on the lake for survival. As you cruise along, your guide will provide insights into the lake’s seasonal changes and how vital it is to the local economy and community. You'll learn how these unique communities adapt to life on the water.

While exploring the floating villages, you’ll witness firsthand how the people live, work, and thrive in such a unique environment. From fishing to farming, the rhythm of daily life is closely tied to the lake’s seasonal ebb and flow. It offers a rare opportunity to see how locals interact with their natural surroundings in a way that is both sustainable and resourceful.

To conclude the day, enjoy a relaxing boat ride as the sun sets over Tonle Sap Lake. The stunning colors of the twilight sky will create a picturesque scene, while you savor local delicacies and refreshing drinks. This peaceful evening cruise offers the perfect ending to your adventure, allowing you to reflect on the beauty and resilience of Cambodian rural life before returning to Siem Reap around 7 PM.
