About this trip
A long, full-on route through Vietnam and Cambodia that covers a lot of ground, from the noise and energy of Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Phnom Penh to the quieter back roads of Ninh Binh and the Mekong Delta.
You get around by whatever suits the terrain, local ferries, trains, open-top jeeps and motorbikes, so the journey itself is part of the experience. Expect street food at every stop and a proper send-off with beach parties along the way.
It wraps up with one last night out in Bangkok before you head home.
What you'll do
- Explore Hanoi's old quarter and Ho Chi Minh City's streets
- Cruise the Mekong Delta by local ferry
- Ride an open-top jeep through the countryside around Ninh Binh
- Take a motorbike through the buzz of a big Vietnamese city
- Visit Phnom Penh
- Finish with a night out in Bangkok
- Hostel-based accommodation throughout, so expect shared or basic rooms and a sociable group setting
- A long, fast-moving 27 days covering two countries, best suited to travellers who want to see as much as possible rather than settle in one place
Worth it if you value a guided, stress-free introduction to SE Asia with a strong group vibe. Think twice if budget is tight—you'll pay for convenience over solo travel.
- The tour guide makes or breaks it: Kim, Minea, Chan, and Dolla elevated trips from good to unforgettable.
- Group dynamics and sense of family were genuinely special; meeting like-minded solo travellers created lasting friendships.
- You'll pay significantly more than independent travel; works only if saving stress and planning effort matters to you.
- Perfect entry point to SE Asia, but most felt they'd return solo later to explore deeper independently.
