Tour Itinerary

Day 1 Bangkok

Bangkok welcomes with exotic markets, weaving tuk-tuks, slow-going longtail boats and serene temples. Shop up a storm, enjoy a soothing massage or savour the many flavours of Thai cuisine.

Days 2-4 Siem Reap/Angkor Wat

Don't miss the extraordinary temples of Angkor - they're just a short tuk-tuk ride away. Perhaps also consider a trip to Tonle Sap Lake or peruse Siem Reap's markets for a trinket or two.

Day 5 Kompong Cham

Enjoy the fusion of frontier charm and French-colonial character. Stroll the streets to admire the faded European architecture or hire a bike to explore rustic surrounds. Perhaps head a little further afield to learn the legends of the nearby mountain temples.

Day 6 Homestay

Travel further into the Cambodian countryside to a village homestay. Staying with a friendly local family, this is a unique opportunity to experience everyday rural life and to enjoy a homemade meal.

Days 7-9 Sihanoukville

Find a spot on the secluded beaches which fringe Sihanoukville or take a boat trip out to nearby idyllic islands. If mangrove forests, monkeys and exotic birds appeal, head to the Ream National Park for a boat safari.

Days 10-11 Phnom Penh

Find graphic reminders of the country's tragic history in the bone-chilling Tuol Sleng Museum, filled with black-and-white photographs of Pol Pot's prisoners. Gain insight into brighter times in the shimmering Silver Pagoda.

Days 12-13 Ho Chi Minh City

The adventure comes to an end amid swarms of motorbikes and street stalls in Ho Chi Minh City.
