From Angkor to Ha Long: An 11-Day Adventure Across Cambodia & Vietnam

Ho Chi Minh City → Hanoi 11 days Up to 10

About this trip

An 11-day route through Vietnam and Cambodia that moves through three very different bases, from Saigon's street life to Angkor's temples to Hanoi's Old Quarter, finishing with a night on Ha Long Bay.

The pace is unhurried by design, with two or more nights in each place, so you get time to actually explore rather than just tick off sights. Comfort runs through the trip too, including a 5-star stay in Siem Reap and a cruise overnight to close things out.

Good for anyone who wants a first proper look at Indochina, culture and history, alongside a fair amount of downtime and decent beds.

What you'll do

  • Explore Saigon's streets over two nights
  • Fly to Siem Reap and spend three nights near Angkor Wat
  • Take in Khmer culture and temple sites around Angkor
  • Wander Hanoi's Old Quarter, temples and cafés over four nights
  • Cruise overnight through Ha Long Bay's limestone karsts
Good to know
  • Easy pace with multiple nights in each base rather than constant moving on
  • Includes an internal flight between Saigon and Siem Reap
  • Mix of city stays and one overnight cruise, so pack for both
What travellers actually say

Worth it if you value seamless logistics, quality hotels, and knowledgeable guides across iconic sites. Think twice if you need detailed itinerary transparency or have concerns about group size.

  • Guides consistently deliver local insight and meaningful storytelling at temples, not just facts.
  • Private transfers and airport pickups work smoothly; drivers arrive on time throughout the trip.
  • Pacing balances adventure with genuine downtime—Halong Bay cruising and beach relaxation, not constant rushing.
  • Reviews are universally positive with no mention of costs, hidden charges, or logistical hiccups.
