About this trip
This 10-day trip crosses from Vietnam into Cambodia and on to Thailand, mixing city energy, island time and ancient temples along the way. You'll start in Ho Chi Minh City before heading to Phnom Penh for a sunset cruise on the Mekong, then swap the road for sand on the island of Koh Rong.
From there it's inland to a rural homestay in Sambor Prei Kuk and on to Siem Reap, where you'll catch sunrise over Angkor and spend a full day exploring the temple complex. The trip winds up in Bangkok for a last night together.
Expect some long travel days between stops, and only a handful of meals included, so there's room to eat and explore at your own pace with your group leader's suggestions.
