Kompong Khleang
Experience Kompong Khleang, the largest and most authentic floating village in Siem Reap, on a carefully crafted private tour.
We leave Siem Reap at your convenience, traveling in an air-conditioned vehicle directly to the village.
On the way, we make stops to see a famous sticky rice village, a local bakery, and a rural market to learn a bit about "countryside shopping".
Upon arrival in the village, we board a boat and travel through the heart of the floating village, passing by stilted and floating homes that have been here for generations. Highlights include Wat Kompong Khleang and the Glimmering Buddha, the tallest Buddha in Siem Reap.
After passing through the floating village, we continue onwards to the Tonle Sap. Here you will see two other floating villages - a Cambodian and an ethnic Vietnamese community. Your guide will talk about its unique ecosystem and how it is the lifeblood of the nation.
This tour lasts approximately 5 hours, depending on your needs.
