We’ll pick you up at your hotel in a jeep at 3:00pm,and head South of Siem Reap through the picturesque Cambodian countryside.
Your itinerary includes a local mushroom farm and factory to learn about how mushrooms are grown using technical methods, a rice wine distillery where you also get to try local rice wine in Cambodia!

Your local guide will describe the Tonle Sap lake in more detail and tell you about the phenomenon that creates a depth variance of up to eight meters and why this lake is vital to Cambodia’s survival. You’ll appreciate this new perspective on Cambodia as you cruise along the river.
To complete the evening, we take a boat ride on the waterway with local delicacies, including soft drinks and other cold beverages, while enjoying a spectacular view of Tonle Sap at twilight. We can expect to arrive back in town around 7:00 pm, depending on the seasons and the time of the sunset.

Great trip 4 hours in the afternoon to outskirts of SR to sample farm, village and floating houses on the lake, all by jeep. The itinerary catered for a taste of authentic in a home/farm, with insights into daily life, in addition to the nearby mushroom farm along dusty roads from village to village, then a short stop at temple, before on the boat to see stilt house and floating home along the lake. Top notch insights and super guide by Bunsom who provided an awesome, fun, adventurous and informative tour.
