Tonle Sap Lake Unique Kayaking

Tour details

Your day begins with a hotel pickup in Siem Reap and a warm welcome from our experienced guide, who will brief you on safety and the day’s activities. You’ll head to Puok Market, renowned for its grilled chicken and deep-fried bugs, where your guide will explain the lively market scene and perhaps encourage you to sample some adventurous snacks or traditional cakes. Next, we explore a smoke fish family factory to see how smoked fish is made in Cambodia, then enjoy a scenic drive through rice paddies and lotus farms toward Tonle Sap Lake, Southeast Asia’s largest freshwater lake that crucially supports local livelihoods and biodiversity. Arriving at the pier, embark on a boat ride to Mechrey Floating Village, where residents live on floating homes amidst the lake’s waters—a unique way of life that has persisted for generations. You’ll then share a home-cooked lunch with a local family on a floating house before heading to the mangrove forests and open water for kayaking, immersing yourself in Cambodia’s natural beauty and vibrant culture. The day concludes with a boat ride back to the pier and a scenic drive back to Siem Reap, where you’ll be dropped off at your hotel around 5 PM, leaving you with unforgettable memories of a truly authentic Cambodian experience beyond the temples.
