Find your bird specialist at your hotel and proceed with an air-conditioned car or minivan to the boats area. Transfer to a mini-boat, a special flat-bottom boat driven by experienced local drivers. On the way to the Prek Toal Shrine, you will pass through the floating village where everything floats, including police stations, shops, schools and markets.

Then proceed through the large Tonle Sap lake and enter the floating Prek Toal community. You will meet the local park rangers and transfer to your boats for the trip within the biosphere reserve. These boats are much smaller and can approach the viewing platforms. For bird watches, small paddle boats that will allow the local guide to approach you from where the birds are nesting are used.

This is an incredible sight as thousands of large waterfowl call this home sanctuary. Then head back to find the mini-tents and then cross the lake to meet Queen Tara in the heart of the floating village. There you can enjoy a full lunch and drinks. Take some time to relax in our plentiful hammocks or enjoy the breathtaking scenery of the largest boat on the lake. Then meet up with your air-conditioned minivan for the return journey to your accommodation in Siem Reap.
