Tour Category: Cambodia Day Tours
The full-day tour to the remote fishing village of Kompong Khleang and the overgrown temple of Beng Melea begins with a pickup from your hotel foyer or anywhere in town in the morning. Then we head out to Kompong Khleang. Along the way, we’ll stop at local villages where you can observe how locals make Kralan—a traditional Cambodian sticky rice cake prepared with sticky rice, red beans, sugar, and coconut milk. The cake is then cooked inside bamboo over an open fire.
Continuing our journey, we’ll reach Kompong Khleang—one of the lesser-visited floating villages and stilted fishing communities situated on the Great Tonle Sap Lake. Upon arrival in the village, you’ll embark on a walking tour, immersing yourself in authentic Cambodian village life. You’ll witness local markets and observe locals engaged in various trades common in rural Cambodia.
Next, we’ll board a wooden boat and venture out onto Tonle Sap Lake, surrounded by breathtaking natural scenery and abundant wildlife. After a satisfying lunch, we’ll drive to the incredible hidden jungle temple of Beng Mealea. Our guided tour will reveal the temple’s ruined sandstone structures, collapsed piles, and walls covered by tree roots and vines—testament to its long-lost existence in the lush jungle.
As a fascinating addition, we’ll explore a nearby quarry site, where your guide will share insights into how ancient people used tools and techniques to cut impressive blocks of sandstone for temple construction. Finally, we’ll return you to your hotel, concluding our memorable day of exploration.
