Kompong Phlukin kelluva kylä – puolen päivän kierros

Matkaoppaamme oli Tola. Ryhmässä oli mielestäni noin 18 henkilöä. Olin ainoa japanilainen, ja suurin osa muista oli englanninkielisistä maista tai maista, joissa puhutaan sujuvasti englantia. Puhun jonkin verran englantia, mutta ajattelin, että jos joku ei ole kovin itsevarma englannissaan, se voisi olla hieman haastavaa. Kaikki selitykset olivat tietysti englanniksi, ja kun kysyttiin, haluaako joku yksin matkustava lähteä veneajelulle mangrovemetsän läpi, minun piti nostaa käteni, muuten en olisi päässyt mukaan. Koska oli toinenkin yksin matkustava, joka halusi mukaan, menimme kahdestaan. Perushinta kahdelle on kuulemma 11 dollaria. Vain neljä osallistujaa lähti veneajelulle, mutta se oli sen arvoista. Aluksi ajattelin, että ehkä veneajelu ei ollut tarpeen, koska kuljimme vain mangrovemetsän läpi, mutta parasta oli, että pääsimme lähelle vesillä asuvien ihmisten koteja. Ennen sitä kävelimme hieman kaupungilla, mutta se oli nopeaa ja ryhmässä, joten se ei ollut tarpeeksi. Siksi oli hienoa päästä veneellä lähemmäs. Ne, jotka eivät lähteneet veneajelulle, odottivat kuulemma samalla myyntikojun edessä noin 30 minuuttia, kun me olimme veneessä. Tola-oppaan selitykset olivat selkeitä, ja opin paljon uusia asioita, mikä oli hienoa. Hän myös kysyi, halusimmeko, että hän ottaa kuvia. Kiitos paljon :)

The trip to Tonle Sap Lake is really impressive. The tour guide is very good and friendly. Along the way, he explains patiently, which makes the whole journey much better. The sunset here is extremely beautiful. The afterglow shines on the lake surface, like a wonderful painting. And the houses on the water are very interesting. Here, one can enjoy the beauty of nature and also feel a different kind of life. It is really a very good travel experience.

このツアーはシェムリアップに来て1番良い思い出となりました。村の子供達がとても人懐っこく可愛かったです。シェムリアップの雨季の良さを感じました。ツアーガイドのMr.Raはとてもフレンドリーで面白い人でした。英語の苦手な私にも嫌な顔せずに根気強く接してくれてとても居心地が良かったです。その日のツアーは私を含めて2人でしたがMr.Raのおかげでとても楽しいものになりました。村のフルーツの食べ方を教えてくれてたり、冗談を言って笑わせてくれたりこの人のツアーになったら大当たりだと思います。ありがとうございました。

We were lucky to have Touch Chanty as our guide was such amazing guy! Caring to all the group members and took great photos and timely sharing with us. He also helped to take care of my youngest son to get the best experience. He explained everything clearly and made the tour so wonderful to enjoy!

The tour was amazing. Our English speaking tour guide Pip was very energetic and funny and made the experience memorable. He provided us with many interesting insights about the local food, culture and development of the areas. He also took phenomenal photos and pointed out all the interesting photo opportunities. The market visit was great, he even facilitated a small tasting for us and the subsequent cruise through the floating village was phenomenal. Definitely worth the price!

The tour guide, Ry was very professional and very knowledgeable. He even gave us a view of the locals food market that is such an eye-opener for a modern people like us. The floating village will reflect on our daily life to remind ourselves to be grateful with what we had.

Pick up from hotel was punctual. Ride was smooth. Guide Touch Pheap, can speak good English and was able to provide information about the life on the village. Took a small boat to the island. Along the way can see the houses on stilts. On the island just spent some time walking around. Good to see that the kids are provided free English lessons. Heart warming to see the children so enthusiastic about their learning. There is an optional mangrove tour costing USD5 each person. At around 5pm, the boat took us out to the middle of the lake to watch the beautiful sunset. Overall it is a good tour to see another side of life in Cambodia and watch beautiful sunset.

Pls request for mr chuop as the tour guide. i'm a solo traveler & all of my photos was taken by him. He is friendly & knowledgable. We rode a big boat & life jacket was provided. It is recommended to do the tour on october when the water level is high & u will see the village kinda floating. Tour will stop at the mangrove & optional ride to the mangrove with a small boat for 5$ for 1 pax. Before we head back to siem reap town, we were heading to middle of the tonle sap lake to watch sunset. Do not miss this experience when u visiting siem reap

時間も正確で大変有意義なツアーでした。 トゥクトゥクでの移動も考えましたが、市内からそこそこ遠く、１人だとボート代も高いためこのツアーに参加しました。 結果、コスパも良く正解です。 欧米の方が多く日本人は私だけでしたが、ガイドさんはじめ皆親切にしていただきました。英語は苦手ですが不自由なく過ごせました。 途中、オプションで20分程度の2人乗りのカヤックツアー(USD6)があり参加しましたが、１人だと貸切でこれもまた正解でした。 湖に着いてから嘘のように天気が回復しラッキーでした。 次回は家族で来ようと思います。

Definitely a must do experience and something different from visiting the temples and exploring the central city area. This tour allows you to experience the real authentic vibes of a khmer villager in the rural area, an eye opening experience. There is also a pit stop for Cambodian’s art, mangrove ride and a sunset boat ride (evening) that tops up the experience 👍🏻 definitely a 5 star experience. Shout out to Try Dara, our guide, who explained to us more about Cambodia and constantly takes nice photos!
