Indochina Trails Summary

Add to Shortlist

Days 1-2 Bangkok

Loud, bright, chaotic and delightful, Bangkok is a city of modern excesses intermingled with simple traditions, all wrapped up in the famous smiles of the locals.

Days 3-4 Vientiane

As the most relaxed capital in South-East Asia, Vientiane is a lovely mix of riverside calm, outstanding temples, fabulous food and charming locals.

Days 5-6 Vang Vieng

Surrounded by stunning limestone karst scenery, Vang Vieng is a small haven with fascinating caves to explore, a myriad of water-based activities and a relaxed atmosphere.

Days 7-9 Luang Prabang

Nestled in the hills of northern Laos, the tranquil city of Luang Prabang is studded with ornate temples, brimming with colourful markets and enriched by French colonial architecture.

Day 10 Pakse

With the fertile Bolaven Plateau close by, Pakse is a trading town with a thriving market and a pleasantly sleepy atmosphere.

Days 11-12 Si Phan Don

The island of Don Khong has resisted the draw of modernisation and is a delightful mix of sleepy villages, picturesque rice paddies and lovely riverside scenery.

Day 13 Homestay

Sitting on the Mekong, lovely Kratie retains an old-world charm with its French architecture and tree-lined streets, while providing the best of Cambodian landscapes and culture.

Days 14-15 Phnom Penh

Phnom Penh celebrates life with optimism and colour, and there are a wealth of riverside eateries, bustling markets and historic sites - both tragic and inspiring - to discover.

Days 16-19 Siem Reap/Angkor Wat

A vibrant nightlife, mouth-watering food, a time-worn French feel and certain famous temples on its doorstep - Siem Reap is a little town with a big, pulsating heart. Immense, awe-inspiring, extraordinary - the Angkor Wat temples are all this and much more. Built in the 12th century, this former Khmer city is nothing short of spectacular.
