🇻🇳The Heritage of Vietnam & Cambodia - Exclusively Solos 14 days🇻🇳
📆November 2024 - November 2025📆
⭐Specially crafted around included and optional opportunities to engage with local communities, sample regional delicacies and delve into each country’s enthralling past, this solo traveller exploration promises new learnings, flavours and revelations.
The ancient part of Hanoi serves as the starting point for you and your fellow solo travellers, where over a welcome cocktail and traditional Vietnamese dinner, you can first connect. Guided by a friendly tour manager, the like-minded group will venture through Hanoi’s historic highlights, from the revered Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum to the serene Temple of Literature. Continue to sail aboard a charming turn-of-the-century paddle steamer across the serene emerald waters of Halong Bay, complete with squid fishing under the starlit sky and a sunrise tai chi session.
The captivating pagodas, temples and museums of Hanoi can then be discovered by foot or aboard a Jeep, and a visit to the sobering Củ Chi tunnel complex reveals the country’s past struggles. Time spent in the home of a local musician provides insight into Vietnam’s musical history before you cross the Cambodian border at the capital Phnom Penh, adorned with elegant French colonial architecture. Tailor your experience with a cyclo ride (three-wheel bicycle taxi) followed by a sunset cruise along the Mekong River.
A scenic journey into the countryside takes you to the charming market town, Siem Reap, your gateway to the remarkable Angkor Wat, the world's largest religious monument and the enchanting vine-clad 'lost city' of Angkor Thom. Finally, conclude your extraordinary Southeast Asian expedition with an excursion to the local community of Kok Sangke. Gain a deep understanding of their traditions and skills as you observe their way of life, followed by a heart-warming Khmer meal that delivers a perfect ending to your adventure.⭐
