Guests can take a boat in front of the lodge to cruise down the river to the far end of the island, and visit Tomo ruins, a remain of a pre-Ankorian Umong Temple, in the middle of a very wild but romantic forest.
According to archaeologists, this temple is considered to have been built in nearly the same century as the Wat Phou temple, but a lot more remains to be discovered.
This trip would include a stop at Ban Tomo village and Ban Than Thip, charming small villages difficult to access by road on wet season.
