Remarks: The transfer from Siem Reap to Battambang by our traditional wooden boat lasts about 5 to 6 hours from August to March. During the dry season-from April to July- the transfer lasts 9 hours due to the low level of water of the Ton Le Sap Lake and the Sangker River. In this sense we do not recommend this trip during this season.
