Trip overview
Commencing in Phnom Penh your regional tour of Cambodia and Thailand quickly departs the capital city and heads into the steamy forests of Kirirom National Park. This elevated pine forest is home to a number of endangered animal species such as pleated gibbons, sun bears and tigers. From here we cover a short 3km trek to the stunning 40 meter Chambok Waterfall at the Chambok Community-based ecotourism site and take an ox-cart ride through the village before sitting down to a delicious home-cooked lunch. From here you are transferred directly to your 'floating tent lodge' accommodation for the night on the Tatai River. The river flows from the imposing Cardamom Mountains and creates a haven for nature lovers that can walk along its banks spotting rare birds such as fish eagles or kingfisher. In the evening don't miss the opportunity to take out the lodge's kayak with their guide to see trees full of magical fireflies.
Next you take a boat to visit Koh Sraloav, a nearby fishing village. On the way you will pass through heavy mangroves and make headway through dense rainforest before arriving at the village to see local fishermen going about their daily lives. Here we visit a monastery and a local school where there is some time to relax and play with the schoolchildren. After lunch take a kayak out onto the water and explore the mangroves.
Transfer to the Thai border and make your way with our representative to Trad province. From here a ferry will take you to Koh Chang for 4 days of relaxing by the beach and exploring the islands at your leisure. A number of optional activities are available to join in as you please. There is also the option to stay on Koh Kood rather then Koh Chang.

Tour itinerary
Head out of Phnom Penh towards the coast (transfer 3h) where you will explore the spectacular scenery of Kirirom National Park. The name Kirirom means “Mountain of Joy” and the park is recognized for its unique high elevation pine forest as well as the many endangered animals such as pleated gibbons, sun bears and tigers that live in the park area.
You will go on a short trek of 3 km to the beautiful, 40 meters high Chambok Waterfall at the Chambok Community-based Ecotourism Site and experience a fun ox cart ride through the village. A delicious home-cooked lunch will be served in the local community.
From here, you will be transferred directly by road and then scheduled resort boat transfer to tonight’s accommodation, a floating tented lodge on Tatai River that comes down from the Cardamom Mountains – the perfect place for nature lovers. Wildlife is abundant here and you might spot colorful butterflies and bizarre-looking insects as well as rare birds like fish eagles or kingfisher. Dinner will be served at the lodge. On good weather days, don’t miss the opportunity to take the kayak out after dark with the lodge’s guide. Just 500m from the lodge you can see a tree full of fireflies and phosphorescence is glowing in the clear river water – just magical!

After breakfast, leave by boat with your local English speaking guide, to cruise deep into the mangroves and experience a rare glimpse of life amongst the fishing communities that live off the natural bounty of this watery paradise.
Drinks will be served en route as you glide down the waterway to a local fishing village to gain insight into local life and meet some shy but friendly people. While the men tend their boats, the women patiently mend the nets and children play amongst the stilted house. Visit the Cham (Muslim) part of the village which is reached by a maze of small bridges.
Back on board enjoy a picnic lunch as you sail further amongst the mangroves. The final stretch as you head to the lodge can be optionally done by kayak if you wish to get closer to nature. (Note: Subject to boat and guide availability, from November to April, pre-booking is necessary at least 2days beforehand)

Optional: Tatai Waterfall by boat
Today spend a relaxing day on a private excursion. Away from the tranquility of 4 Rivers Floating Lodge, the thunder of the majestic Tatai Falls reveals the river’s true power as it drops 6 meters to the rocks below. Your day, depending on the tide, starts at around 10am for the 45-minute boat ride past Tatai village to the falls. A local English speaking guide will lead the tour.
Turning on to a tributary you head into the heart of the Cardamom jungle to the far-off sounds of exotic birds and its secretive wildlife. Within minutes you are at journey’s end, gazing down into the turbulent waters of the falls. Soon it’s time for your picnic lunch, maybe a few moments hydro-massage and a refreshing drink as you find some shade for a picnic and relax amongst the sights and sounds of the jungle. Kayaks are available for the last stretch to add some fun and adventure or you can stay on board the boat.
On your return to the lodge the late afternoon is free at leisure for you to relax or do some more kayaking or fishing from the tent platform. (Lincluded). (Note: Subject to boat and guide availability, from November to April, pre-booking is necessary at least 2days beforehand)
Optional: Greet the Neighbours (a walk into Khmers’ life)
Koh Andet is the island located directly across from your floating tent. Formerly a refuge from the Khmer Rouge, today the island is home to a dozen farming families. On this popular excursion which lasts 1-2 hours, or more if you are enjoying yourself, you are accompanied by a local English speaking guide. Make some friends with the local residents as you walk or cycle around the island. Take the time to ask the villagers about their daily life which revolves around harvesting and fishing.
