If you take a trip to Tonle Sap Lake, you will have chance to motor up into the lake and pick up kayaks to paddle through mangroves. It will be one of the most fun activities you have ever done! The area we kayaked through was like a forest growing out of the lake. Let spend some free time to explore the webbings of trees. It was absolutely gorgeous! You will be happy to go with the flow and enjoy the day although with a bit more challenging.
