We depart early to beat the traffic as we head to the Cu Chi tunnels, located two hours outside the city. Used by the Viet Cong, the network covers three levels and approximately 150mi (240km) of tunnels. Exploring Cu Chi gives us an indication of the tenacity of the ...

Day 3 Transfer to the Mekong Delta; pass through orchards to our island homestay

After breakfast at the homestay, we transfer by boat back to Vinh Long then to Cai Rang floating market, one of the biggest in the Delta; the colour and fragrance of the market is sure to be remembered! We then continue to Chau Doc; close to Cambodia, it is an importa...

Day 5 Cross border into Cambodia; transfer to the sleepy riverside town of Kampot

After breakfast, we leave Chau Doc for the Xa Xia/Ha Tien border, where we see a change of pace as we cross into rural Cambodia. We then travel to the picturesque riverside town of Kampot (approximate transfer time excluding immigration process is 3hr to 3hr 30min). A...

Day 6 Visit Kep Mountain, boat trip to tropical Koh Tonsai island or relax on Kep beach

This morning, we drive (approximately 25 minutes) to the resort town of Kep and first stop for a short visit to Kep Mountain in the national park for wonderful coastal views. The town still bears the scars of civil war with the ghost-like remains of old villas. After,...

Day 7 Head to Phnom Penh; cyclo (rickshaw) tour of the capital city; dinner at local restaurant

This morning, if we didn’t do it yesterday, we journey to the countryside surrounding Kep to see rural Cambodia. In the afternoon, we travel from our seaside home to Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia, which sits on the confluence of the Mekong, Tonle Sap and Tonle B...

This morning, we visit the Royal Palace grounds, where we see the Silver Pagoda, one of the most holy temples in Cambodia and home to an impressive collection of gold, diamonds and other precious stones along with many traditional musical instruments. The rest of the...

Day 9 Transfer to Siem Reap; pause to sample local delicacies; view Angkor temples at sunset

Travel by private air-conditioned bus (approximately seven hours) to Siem Reap. The trip is a great opportunity to see the real Cambodia, as we make several stops at points of interest along the way. We also see the cottage industry at Santuk Silk Farm, which is a val...

Day 10 Cycle ride around Angkor temples; easy flat trails with option of opting out and taking moto-rickshaw

We leave early this morning and take a fun bike ride around the Angkorian ruins. It is an easy ride on flat trails and roads but for non-cyclists there is the option to jump onto a local remork – motor-rickshaw. The ride today is approximately 18.5mi (30km). On the b...

Day 11 Free day in Siem Reap; choose to visit floating village of Tonle Sap, a conservation centre or zip-line over the jungle canopy

Today is a free day for exploration and your group leader can make suggestions and organise transport. If you didn’t manage to fit it in yesterday, you might like to visit the jungle temple of Ta Prohm (Angkor pass required). Another option is to journey into the co...

Day 12 Drive to Bangkok; journey broken with stops at stone carving village and a garden restaurant for lunch

It’s a long drive from Siem Reap to Bangkok (approximately 10 hours including stops for a border crossing and lunch); however, we break up the journey many times at local points of interest. We stop at a stone carving village where many of the inhabitants carve religi...

Accommodation

Flights usually via Bangkok with Thai Airways Travel by private minibus, bike and boat Group normally 4 to 18, plus leader 12 nights hotels, all en suite, and 1 night homestay 13 breakfasts, 1 lunch and 2 dinners included
We spend 12 nights in family-friendly hotels and one night at an island homestay on the Mekong Delta. Almost all the hotels have swimming pools and we can swim at the beach in Kep. We have aimed to select hotels for their location as well as character. In the rural areas, we use the best available accommodation – these have private bathrooms, reliable electricity and water supplies, good service and some added amenities. The normal accommodations used on this trip can be found on the day-to-day itinerary; however, below are a few of the notable places we stay. Mekong Delta: Island homestay (night 3) Our time in a guesthouse allows us to experience true Delta hospitality, as we are looked after by local people and stay by the Mekong River. The rooms are relatively basic; bedding, a mosquito net and a small towel are provided, while there are shared bathroom facilities with a shower. The real highlight though is the hospitality of our hosts, the lush garden, and the food (homemade southern Vietnamese cuisine). Siem Reap: Angkor Holiday Hotel (nights 9-11) A short drive from the Angkor temple complex, this hotel is ideally placed for our adventures in Siem Reap. When you’re not out exploring, there’s a swimming pool to splash around in plus a restaurant serving Asian, Khmer and Western cuisines. Bangkok: Royal Princess Larn Luang Hotel (nights 12-13) Among the boulevards and canals of old Bangkok, the 167-room Royal Princess is right in the action. It has plenty of amenities, including a ground-floor swimming pool and saltwater hot tub, plus plenty of sunbeds. There’s a decent selection of restaurants too, including: the Princess Café, for relaxed dining; The Empress, for Chinese cuisine; and Mikado, for a taste of Japan. Worth knowing There may be instances when you specifically want a single room. Perhaps a grandparent needs one, or parents of a family of three or five want to ensure they get a bit of space! Single supplements are available upon request (see price details below). Please advise us at the time of booking. A single room is available on hotel nights only. While we do our best to ensure families are roomed close together (in some cases, we can arrange adjoining rooms), we can’t guarantee this. Most family trips occur during peak season and we sometimes have little control over where you are put.

Travel Insurance
We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance alongside your travel package to safeguard against unforeseen circumstances such as medical expenses, trip cancellations, and other contingencies. It offers you peace of mind and ensures you are prepared for unexpected events that may occur before or during your journey
Visa requirements
Visa requirements vary depending on your country of origin and your country of destination. It is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with the relevant requirements. For a handy tool that can help you quickly find the requirements, please visit this link .
Meals Included
13 breakfasts, one lunch and two dinners are included. The food on this trip is a real highlight for many. Southeast Asian cuisine is known for its abundance of freshly prepared dishes with strong aromatic flavours. There is a focus on herbs and citrus to ensure each dish packs a punch; chilli does feature highly but is easily avoided if desired. Food is cheap in all three countries and Western food is readily available almost everywhere, with the exception of the night in the Mekong Delta. Breakfasts are usually buffets and there is plenty to choose from: fruit, bread, cereal/yoghurt (sometimes) and cooked breakfasts. For lunch and dinner, allow at least US$12-US$25 per person per day. You can eat out very cheaply, but if you go to the more expensive restaurants most of the time, you will spend more than the suggested amount. Vegetarian food is widely available; however, the offering is fairly similar in most places within each country. Please advise at time of booking if you have any dietary requirements. Please note, the availability of certain products is minimal or non-existent, for example wheat- or dairy-free, please be prepared for this and you may need to bring these from home.
