Animal Encounter Days in Siem Reap

Cambodian Cooking Class and Oxcart Ride with Local Village Tour

Good experience at a temple

Had a very good experience with this guide, but I did not attend the workshop he normally takes groups to. We visited a Buddhist temple and recieved a blessing from the monk, and the guide gave good information about Buddhism.

Prek Toal Birds Sanctuary and floating Village Private Day Tour

Genuinely Great Tour

Our tour with Prek Toal was excellent. We went a few days before Christmas and there was just enough water to be able to travel through small waterways instead of on the lake. Apparently the birding will be better in a month but the small waterways will be dry. Communication with Hoksan was easy and our tour guide, Sophal, was excellent. He was great at spotting and identifying the birds, and he also gave a lot of information about the floating village. On other tours I felt we were only seeing what was set up for tourists, but this trip felt genuine. The home where we had lunch was the same as the other homes. The town has had successes and failures and its all there to see. Hoksan is putting the money from these tours back into the community to improve housing and develop sustainable vocations for the residents. One thing to note- bring layers for the temperature on the boat in the morning.
