About this trip
This 14-day route covers three countries in one go, moving from Vietnam through Thailand and into Cambodia. It suits travellers who want a broad first taste of Southeast Asia rather than one region in depth.
You start in Hanoi, with its old quarter streets and a trip out to Halong Bay, then head down to Hoi An for a slower, more historic pace. From there it's on to Bangkok, before finishing in Siem Reap near Angkor.
It's a partially guided trip, so you'll have some free time to explore each stop alongside the group sections.
What you'll do
- Wander Hanoi's old quarter
- Cruise Halong Bay
- Explore the old town of Hoi An
- Take in Bangkok's street food and street life
- Visit the temples of Siem Reap
- Fast-paced overall — three countries in 14 days means frequent moves
- Mix of guided and free time, so it suits people happy to explore independently at points
- Covers a lot of ground, better suited to first-timers wanting an overview than those wanting depth in one place
Worth it if you value bespoke itineraries, exceptional local guides, and immersive cultural experiences. Think twice if you dislike temple-heavy itineraries or need flexibility in a packed schedule.
- Local guides genuinely knowledgeable, funny, and kind—Mai, Dat, and the Khais made cultural moments memorable and felt like guardians.
- Bespoke planning means you design what matters: one traveller got water puppets, food tours, Lan Ha Bay, and avoided generic sightseeing.
- Siem Reap's two-day temple itinerary felt repetitive; traveller saw enough temples by day one, found most styles identical.
- Trip coordinators (Chris, Thang, Ivy) stay in touch daily via WhatsApp with pickup confirmations and logistical updates throughout.
