About this trip
Twelve days running from Hanoi to Siem Reap, taking in the highlights of Vietnam before crossing into Cambodia. You get a wide sweep of both countries without having to plan the logistics yourself — flights, transport, guides and most meals are sorted for you.
The route covers a lot of ground: Hanoi, an overnight cruise in Halong Bay, the old town charm of Hoi An, the pace of Ho Chi Minh City, a slower detour through the Mekong Delta, and finally the temples of Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom.
It runs as a partially guided tour, so you'll have guided sightseeing in the key spots alongside some time to explore on your own.
What you'll do
- Overnight cruise through Halong Bay
- Wander the old town streets of Hoi An
- Explore Ho Chi Minh City
- Boat trip through the Mekong Delta
- Visit the temples of Angkor Wat and Angkor Thom in Siem Reap
- Departs daily from Hanoi, so you can pick your own start date
- Partially guided — expect a mix of guided sightseeing and free time
- Covers Vietnam and Cambodia in 12 days, so travel days and internal flights are part of the pace
Worth it if you value smooth logistics and cultural depth. Think twice if you need more than 2 days per country.
- Transport consistently on time despite chaotic traffic; guides genuinely knowledgeable on war history and local culture.
- City hotels centrally located, other accommodation quality solid; tour operator responsive and adaptive during disruptions like typhoons.
- Twelve days across two countries feels rushed; multiple reviewers wished for extra days per location, especially Cambodia's two days.
- Safe trip for solo and female travellers; group vibe positive but specific group composition not detailed in reviews.
