Beng Mealea & Floating Village Day Tour
Step off the beaten path and explore Cambodia’s hidden treasures and local life on our Beng Mealea & Floating Village Day Tour. This unique journey combines the adventure of a jungle-covered temple with the charm of a traditional floating village on Tonle Sap Lake, giving you an unforgettable glimpse into both the country’s ancient history and contemporary culture.
Your day begins at Beng Mealea, often called the “Indiana Jones Temple”, a sprawling ruin overgrown with giant tree roots and moss-covered stones. Unlike the restored temples of Angkor, Beng Mealea retains a raw, mysterious atmosphere, allowing you to wander through collapsed galleries, hidden corridors, and towering ruins while imagining the life of the Khmer Empire centuries ago.
In the afternoon, venture to Tonle Sap Lake, Southeast Asia’s largest freshwater lake, where local communities live in harmony with the water. Visit a floating village, observe stilted houses, floating schools, and traditional fishing methods, and enjoy a serene boat ride through the calm canals. This combination of history, adventure, and culture makes the tour perfect for travelers seeking a well-rounded, immersive experience in Cambodia.
