    What you'll see and do

    1. Kampong Phluk Floating Village

      At Kampong Phluk we hop in a boat and explore, taking in the beautiful waterways and charming houses on stilts. In dry season you'll be able to see the watermarks on the beams showing how high the waters rise, and in wet season you'll see the villagers and fishermen going about their business by boat.

      180 minutes here

    2. Tonle Sap Lake

      Going out on the Tonle Sap itself is a deeply calming experience thanks to the still waters meeting the horizon as far as you can see. We round off the day with a drink (and dinner, if you wish) at a traditional floating restaurant to watch the sun set over the lake.

    Beautiful Sunset at the floating village

    Nice experience at the sunset, the guide explain everything and for 5 dollar extra you can do the small boat ride to pass through the village (btw with the bigger boat you can see everything). Recommend!

    Good tour!

    Good tour to see the floating villages with a lot of nice people. Phong is a good guide, though you feel a bit forced to write reviews.

    Sunset tour of Kampong Phluk stilts home village on the Tonle Sap: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Siem Reap.

    How much does Sunset tour of Kampong Phluk stilts home village on the Tonle Sap cost?

    +

    Prices start at $21 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Siem Reap usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Sunset tour of Kampong Phluk stilts home village on the Tonle Sap take?

    +

    Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Siem Reap is not rushed.

    Is Sunset tour of Kampong Phluk stilts home village on the Tonle Sap worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 92 out of 100, which we label "90+ Club". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 5,657 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Siem Reap, and how flexible the cancellation terms are. Scoring 90 or above puts it in the Outty 90+ Club, the top tier of everything we rank.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Sunset tour of Kampong Phluk stilts home village on the Tonle Sap?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Sunset tour of Kampong Phluk stilts home village on the Tonle Sap suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Sunset tour of Kampong Phluk stilts home village on the Tonle Sap?

    +

    Around 1,980 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Siem Reap can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Siem Reap and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Sunset tour of Kampong Phluk stilts home village on the Tonle Sap start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Siem Reap within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Siem Reap?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Siem Reap experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kampong Phluk Floating Village Tour by Boat, Angkor Wat Sunrise or Sunset Tour with Guide from Siem Reap, Angkor Wat Sunrise & 3 Main Temples – Small Group. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Siem Reap?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Siem Reap?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Sunset tour of Kampong Phluk stilts home village on the Tonle Sap?

    +

    Included: Hotel pickup and drop-off; Professional guide; Bottle water for whole trip; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Boat ticket. Not included: Meals. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Sunset tour of Kampong Phluk stilts home village on the Tonle Sap include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 581 listed pickup locations in and around Siem Reap. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Sunset tour of Kampong Phluk stilts home village on the Tonle Sap offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Sunset tour of Kampong Phluk stilts home village on the Tonle Sap?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    What happens to Sunset tour of Kampong Phluk stilts home village on the Tonle Sap if the weather is bad?

    +

    This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
