Description
Take an epic journey through Southeast Asia’s highlights in Thailand, Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam. Hit Bangkok, find good times in Chiang Mai and then cross the border into Laos. Cruise the mighty Mekong, discover gorgeous Luang Prabang, explore a natural paradise in Vang Vieng and learn about Vientiane’s past and future. See old-world Hanoi, ancient Hue, historic Hoi An and bustling Ho Chi Minh City while eating your weight in pho, banh mi and rice paper rolls. Sail on the calm waters of paradise in Cat Ba Island, then hit the waters of Koh Rong. Meet the locals with a homestay in Sambor Prei Kuk, then experience the incredible Angkor Wat at sunrise. From cycling, kayaking and exploring to cruising, drinking and indulging in local massage, this is an adventure you won’t soon forget.
- Head out on a sunset hike to Wat Phu Si in Luang Prabang for some amazing views over Phu Si Mountain. After the sun descends, head to Talad Mued Night Market for a BBQ feast – a local favourite.
- Cruise down the Mekong River in a traditional-style boat – a classic favourite in Southeast Asia for good reason. Take in the overhanding reeds and enjoy more photo-ops than you can shake a bamboo cane at.
- Who'd have thought green seas and giant mossy rocks could be so pretty? Take in the views of Lan Ha Bay by kayak as you explore the limestone islands during your visit to Cat Ba Island.
- A homestay in rural Sambor Prei Kuk puts you right in the heart of everyday village life in Cambodia – cycle through the village for the best perspective and see locals working the rice fields or getting stuck into handicrafts.
- See the sunrise over the incredible Angkor complex and take a guided Tuk-tuk tour of all the best sites (including Angkor Wat and jungle-covered Ta Prohm) with a company focused on employing local women in the community.
