Day three to five - Chaing Mai
Trek to a local hill tribe village on the morning of day 3 before heading back to Chiang Mai.

Day six to eight - Luang Prabang Laos
Take the flight to Luang Prabang - a charming colonial city with a dreamy atmosphere. Visit the fairy-tale Kuang Si Waterfalls.
Day nine to ten - Vang Vieng
Stop for a dip at the crystal clear Blue Lagoon 2 on our way to picturesque Vang Vieng. Spend the next couple of days chilling by the river, hiking into the lush surrounding countryside, or book one of our optionals, including bike rides, rock-climbing and tubing.
Day eleven to twelve - Hanoi
Fly to the Vietnamese capital. Dump your bags and head out for dinner, followed by an optional bar crawl. On day 12, visit Hoa Lo prison, or just explore the Old Quarter at your own pace, sampling Vietnamese coffee at one of the street side cafes.
Day thirteen - Ha long bay
Take an unforgettable day cruise through the emerald green waters of Ha Long Bay. With stops at floating villages, epic snorkelling and a picnic lunch, it’s a day you’ll remember for a long time to come.
Day fourteen to Fifteen - Phong Nha
Nestled at the base of soaring limestone cliffs, Phong Na is surrounded by lush forest and is still mostly undiscovered. We’ve got some great optional activities from a coffee tasting trip, to a bike ride to Bong Lai Village and a day in pristine Phong Na-Khe Bang National Park.
Day sixteen to eighteen - Hoi An
Hoi An is an ancient town, with yellow-toned buildings and Chinese shop-houses, lit up by hundreds of colourful lanterns at night. It’s an amazing place to chill and soak up the atmosphere, but we’ve also got trips to the Vietnamese ‘Disneyland’, a coconut basket boat experience, a lantern-making workshop, a local farm visit and a day at the beach on offer.
Day nineteen to twenty one- Ho Chi Minh City
Fly from Da Nang to Ho Chi Minh City - a throbbing powerhouse of a city, where the scooters never sleep! Take a walking tour of the city, visit the night market, go on a bar crawl and visit the Cu Chi tunnels or the War Remnants Museum to learn about the impact of the Vietnam War.
Day twenty two to twenty three - Phnom Penh
Tick another country off your list as we head across the border and to the capital city of Cambodia - Phnom Penh. We’ll take a walking tour, visit the infamous S21 Prison and the Killing Fields to learn about the country’s tragic history, and spend a night bar hopping.
Day twenty four to twenty seven - Koh Samleom
Leave the city behind and head to the beautiful island of Koh Rong Samloem. We’ll swim with luminous plankton, take a snorkelling trip round the marine park, and spend a night camping under the stars – bliss!
