Itinerary
Revel in the unique vibe of this riverside city, which is both a place on the move and one with a distinct, and at times quite complex, personality.
Wake early and prepare for a stunning sunrise. Watch the sun’s rays light up every corner of Angkor Wat before spending the rest of the day temple-hopping around the complex. Later, visit the residents of the Angkor Centre for Conservation of Biodiversity. Learn about the native wildlife of Cambodia, understand the threats they face and meet some of the endangered species.
Roam the French-style cafés and serene pagodas and get immersed in the daily life of the city.
Satisfy your tastebuds and your conscience at KOTO, a restaurant that supports former street children. Stop by Vinh Trang Pagoda, then set sail on a Mekong Delta excursion.
Rise early to mingle with locals in the Mekong River's famous floating markets. Visit the mind-boggling Cu Chi Tunnels on the way back to Ho Chi Minh City, then enjoy the sights of the city on a walking tour.
With a dramatic mountain backdrop and a shimmering sea, Nha Trang is the perfect place for a beach break. Enjoy a cyclo tour and then cruise the nearby islands, stopping to swim and snorkel in the balmy sea. Feast on the day's catch before experiencing Nha Trang's famed nightlife.
Wander among the stalls of the rambling Hoi An markets. Take a trip to My Son and see some ancient Cham ruins, or head to the Cua Dai Beach for a sun-soaked afternoon.
Discover the ruins of the Imperial Citadel and royal tomb, then embark on a tranquil trip down the Perfume River.
Get a culture-fix at the Temple of Literature and the Fine Arts Museum. In the evening, catch a water-puppet performance.
Cruise the waters of Halong Bay on a traditional junk boat, spotting secret grottoes and karst peaks along the way.
Finish up in the heart of Hanoi's Old Quarter and celebrate with a final feast.

Tour Operator
It’s been more than 36 years since our first small group set out to discover Nepal. It’s this heritage and our reputation that keeps travellers coming back time and time again.
We appeal to the well-travelled, discerning traveller. The one who chooses value over price, and wants to immerse themselves in a place instead of just ticking landmarks off a bucket list. The type of person who would rather stay in a family run B&B built in a 16th century Venetian convent than a forgettable hotel. We’re for travellers who want inclusions along the way instead of fiddling around for loose change.
Almost 20 years ago, Peregrine led an industry revolution by solely employing locally born leaders. This innovative approach gives our travellers a deeper insight into the countries they visit. Doorways are opened and a true understanding of the place is fostered.
At Peregrine, we travel in intimate groups and take the time to get under the skin of a destination. Of course we all want to see the Taj Mahal in India. But imagine then heading to a remote Rajasthani village and learning about rural life while in the company of locals. Seeing the famous sites is a must, but it’s often the memory of wandering through a small village or sharing dinner with a local family that will leave a lasting impact.
We promise to share our knowledge and expertise with you, and ensure you will come home with stories you will tell for years to come.

Meals introduction
While travelling with us you'll experience the vast array of wonderful food available in the world. Your group leader will be able to suggest restaurants to try during your trip. On our camping trips we often cook the region's specialities so you don't miss out. To give you the maximum flexibility in deciding where, what and with whom to eat, generally not all meals are included in the trip price. This also gives you more budgeting flexibility. As a rule our groups tend to eat together to enable you to taste a larger variety of dishes and enjoy each other's company. There's no obligation to do this though.
Meals
18 Breakfasts, 6 Lunches, 6 Dinners
Style descriptions
‘Comfort travel’ means encountering all that the real world has to offer, but with an added degree of, well… comfort. We use more private transport, the travel pace more relaxed, the accommodation a touch nicer. And by paying a little more up front, you’ll be treated to more included meals, more leader-led activities and get a greater immersion in all things local.
