Kampong Phluk tour

You can see real village life in Cambodia by visiting the village on stilts on Lake Tonle Sap. In the vicinity of Siem Reap, there is a village Kampong Phluk. We offer a morning or evening tour to the village. The recommended time is 8 – 9 am. The return time is approximately 16 hours. However, if you want to watch the sunset on the lake, then we recommend an evening tour – the optimal time to start is at 1 – 2 pm. Return time is about 7 pm.

A distance from the city to the village is 30 km; you can use a tuk-tuk, a taxi or a minivan. After arriving at the village, we transfer to the boat, along the way we see exotic types of housing, people, life, flora and fauna. In the village itself, you can visit a temple, a shop, a school, and finally go to the big water. The population of the village is about 10,000 people, they are mostly fishermen, who derive their subsistence mainly from fishing.

Tonle Sap Lake is the largest in Indochina and in the rainy season it is 5 times more than in the dry season. In itself, it plays an important role for the people of Cambodia. The fishing industry is quite highly developed. The lake area varies from 3,000 to 15,000 square kilometers.
