WHO WE ARE

Prek Toal Tours & Travel was created and founded by a local villager from Prek Toal, Mr. Hoksan, from 1998 till now. Hoksan was lucky to grow up in Prek Toal, a beautiful floating village, where my life skills helped me to gain a successful education and experiences from the village and in nearby Siem Reap.

Prek Toal Tours & Travel is a local not-for-profit community tours, and 100% focused on the sustainable development of our unique floating village. Our aim is to share the total experience of our community and its environment as you learn about our culture. The tours we offer our guests give extra income to people in the community and support them into the future. Guests will have a unique experience at Prek Toal hospitality that they will never forget.

We are a small boutique tours and travel company. As such we can best meet your individual needs and wishes.

OUR PARTNERSHIPS

We work closely with local travel agencies both inbound and outbound, offering corporate rates and tours’ schedule details. It is important that guests and travellers are provided with the best guides who know their area of expertise. Unlike some tour companies, all our guides know our community well, because they are part of it and aim to make a contribution to the future of our community. Our tours are specialty tours, requiring specialty guides.

We arrange the best rates for agencies who work with us as a partner so we all get benefit, which will then pass on to our community.

As a member of our growing tourism industry, Prek Toal Tours and Travel hopes guests will try to arrange your services in the best ways. We encourage guests to get the best guide who can give the best information and who has the best knowledge about our heritage listed environment and its birds. We look forward to working with guests to give them the best experience.

We hope to continually build close business partnerships and trust to help our local agencies in Cambodia. We hope to see all local tour companies display the interests of the community and the customers in their heart.
