About this trip
This 14-day trip runs from Hanoi to Siem Reap, tracing a route through Vietnam and into Cambodia. You move between coast, delta, and city, taking in Halong Bay, Hue, Hoi An, the Mekong Delta, Ho Chi Minh City, Phnom Penh, and finally the temples of Angkor.
It is a broad, moving itinerary rather than a slow one, mixing cruising, history, and city time across two countries. Expect a good amount of ground covered, with the temples of Siem Reap as the closing highlight.
This is a fully guided group tour with a moderate pace, and it also runs as a Christmas and New Year departure, which suits families or groups wanting to travel together over the holidays.
What you'll do
- Cruise the limestone waters of Halong Bay
- Explore imperial Hue and the old town of Hoi An
- Travel through the waterways of the Mekong Delta
- Take in the pace of Ho Chi Minh City
- Learn Phnom Penh's royal and wartime history
- Explore Angkor Wat and the jungle-covered ruins of Ta Prohm
- Covers two countries and several distinct regions in 14 days, so travel days are part of the rhythm
- Fully guided throughout, with a moderate pace suited to families and groups
- Phnom Penh includes visits dealing with Cambodia's difficult wartime history
Worth it if you want immersive cultural experiences and don't mind long travel days. Think twice if you're after relaxation or pristine natural landscapes.
- Guide quality is exceptional—Hung, Kien, Sam and Ny went beyond expectations with local knowledge and genuine care.
- Mekong Delta leg is a very long journey for minimal payoff; plastic-choked river and underwhelming boat trips.
- Early starts and packed itineraries throughout; dawn Angkor Wat viewing often backlit depending on position.
- Hotels range from good to dated; expect variable quality, but afternoon free time allows pool recovery.
