Experience a peaceful boat cruise on Tonle Sap Lake, observing floating villages and stunning sunsets over Southeast Asia’s largest freshwater lake.
River Cruise – Sunset Cruise on Tonle Sap Lake
Depart Siem Reap in the late afternoon for a scenic drive to the Tonle Sap Lake, Southeast Asia’s largest freshwater lake. Upon arrival, board a traditional wooden boat specially designed for navigating the lake’s vast floating villages. As you glide through the waterways, witness the unique lifestyle of communities who live entirely on the water — floating houses, schools, markets, and boats serving as taxis.
Enjoy local snacks and Khmer refreshments on deck while you watch the golden sun slowly descend behind the horizon. The interplay of light and water creates stunning reflections and silhouettes of fishing nets, boats, and wildlife. The peaceful atmosphere and cool breeze make this cruise a perfect way to relax after a day of sightseeing.
After the sunset, return to shore just in time to enjoy a delicious dinner in Siem Reap town, sharing stories and photos from your unforgettable river adventure.
