Get a unique experience while in Siem Reap as you head for the Tonle Sap Lake to explore the famous floating villages. You will be immersed in an intriguing atmosphere watching the locals go about their daily life in their extraordinary aquatic environment. On route to the lake you will have an opportunity to stop and take some photos of the lotus flowers which are a deeply important flower in Buddhism.

Located in the Tonle Sap Lake you will visit one of the largest of the floating villages, Chong Khneas, traveling by boat with a private guide. Home to Khmer and ethnic Vietnamese and Cham communities, your guide will explain how life evolved around the lake, how life continues to this day and what threats the communities and their dwellings face.
