Siem Reap: Bird Sanctuary & Floating Village with Osmose NGO

Escape the crowds of Siem Reap and discover Prek Toal, one of Southeast Asia’s most important waterbird sanctuaries and a unique floating community on Tonlé Sap Lake.

Travel through the Cambodian countryside to Mechrey Pier, then cruise to Prek Toal Floating Village while enjoying coffee, tea, and fresh fruit on board. Accompanied by a certified Osmose guide, explore the Ramsar-listed bird sanctuary by boat, spotting rare waterbirds from dedicated viewing platforms and learning about local conservation efforts. Binoculars are provided.

Enjoy a community-prepared lunch at a floating restaurant before visiting environmental education projects and a water hyacinth handicraft workshop, where you'll create your own handmade souvenir.

End your day with a traditional Khmer paddle boat ride through floating gardens and farms, gaining a unique insight into life on the lake before returning to Siem Reap.
