Koh Pdao

Sweeping riparian landscapes, natural delights, rare creatures, local culture and lifestyles collide to form shapes previously unimagined...

Perhaps you're looking for the peace, tranquillity and natural beauty of rural island life or an opportunity to immerse yourself completely into village life, whatever you're looking for Koh Pdao abides. Choose a few or many activities to suit your travel ambitions.

The rare and graceful Irrawaddy river dolphins can seen from Koh Pdao in their natural habitat, you can take cycling adventures along the village roads or into the wilderness, desirable boat trips along the Mekong River to drink in the changing and diverse scenery. Local guides with personal knowledge of the areas can get you right off the beaten track if that is what you are after

Without fail people that visit a homestay tell us the most appealing qualities of Koh Pdao (and Koh Preah) is becoming the newest siblings in local families, and getting one's hands a little dirty in volunteering activities such as helping local people plant or harvest rice. You can also experience a traditional Khmer dance performance from the local arts group - you might even get invited to join in!

Koh Pdao is the largest island in the Mekong River. It is home to many of CRDT's projects and an opportunity to meet the local community, learn about their lives and how your visit supports their development.

The island experiences intense and elegant sunrises and sunsets as standard, painting the sky in exquisite watercolours.

 

See Koh Pdao on our 'here's one we made earlier...' 100 Pillar Pagoda & Koh Pdao Trail or throw in a few or many days and nights on Koh Pdao as part of something far grander envisaged my your own mind on a custom group tour.
