Full description

A half-day trip from Siem Reap that visits Krong Siem Reap, Bus/coach, Ro Lus Market and Ticket counter for Tonle Sap river and lake boat cruise. There are 6 stops altogether, so it fills the day rather than leaving long gaps between two or three highlights. The price covers Hotel pickup, Boat ride (machine ) and Visit to local market. It does not cover canoe boat ride (5$), so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price. The Tonle Sap is the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia and it reverses direction twice a year: in the monsoon the Mekong pushes water back up the Tonle Sap river and the lake swells several times over, then drains again from about November. The villages on it live with that. Kampong Phluk's stilt houses stand six to ten metres up on their legs, dry underneath in March and wading depth in October; Kampong Khleang is larger, further out and far less visited; Chong Kneas is closest to Siem Reap and the most touristed. Which village works, and whether the boat can reach the flooded forest at all, depends entirely on the month. Priced per person at about $21 each, so a party of 8 comes to $167. The price you see on this page is the total for the party size you pick, not a per-head figure to multiply. Siem Reap Shuttle runs it. We book with them directly, so the guide who meets you works for the operator rather than for a reseller.
