We really enjoyed our trip to Kompong Floating Villages. We took a boat ride through the village, to see how the locals live on the water. We then took the boat out to Tonle Sap lake, which is Asia’s largest freshwater lake. We stopped at a floating restaurant on the lake, where they have food, restrooms, and some local fish/turtles/crocodiles for viewing. From there, a local woman took us on a paddle to the mangroves. As we went during dry season, the water was quite shallow and we were unable to take the boat through the mangroves. If you visit during rainy/wet season, you will be able to do so.
Our driver/guide, Mr. Lim, was exceptional. He was very friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. We enjoyed our day with Mr. Lim and enjoyed the tour he provided us.
We also enjoyed learning about Cambodian people, their culture and way of life. Would highly recommend this tour!
