If you love nature and birds, Boeng Pearaing bird sanctuary would ideally be the best option. The boat excursion slowly cruises around one of Tonle Sap’s potential wetland and allows you to observe various threaten waterbirds that migrated from different parts of mangroves around Tonle Sap Lake. By car passing huge beautiful rice paddies dotting with palm trees, the journey is inspired by a short walking tour at local market.

60 min

Visit a charming lotus bloosoming while you are enjoying the snacks and drinks. You will learn more about Cambodian agri-culture and the way of the local living through interactive exhibits and demonstrations. Immerse yourself in the beauty of the lotus flower and gain a deeper appreciation for the connection between nature and daily life in Cambodia.

A Brilliant Afternoon.

A brilliant afternoon. The guide was very knowledgeable and had some very clear bird recognition charts for us to look at. She also explained about the local waterways and how this effects the birds, fish and the people living in the floating villages. We saw many species of birds, particularly the large varieties, beginning to roost for the night.
