Boeng Pearaing Bird Sanctuary Tour

If you love nature and birds, Boeng Pearaing bird sanctuary would ideally be the best option. The boat excursion slowly cruises around one of Tonle Sap’s potential wetland and allows you to observe various threaten waterbirds that migrated from different parts of mangroves around Tonle Sap Lake. By car passing huge beautiful rice paddies dotting with palm trees, the journey is inspired by a short walking tour at local market.
