We had this tour tailor made to be private and those experiences are amazing. These region are the best part of the world that I’ve ever been to. People are really nice and kind. The most memorable thing is the time in Cambodia with the monks on special ritual ceremony .

Best tour companies for South East Asia tours
Our travelers consistently highlight a few standout companies for tours in the region. Prestigo Asia and Hoi An Express get lots of positive feedback for their well-planned trips and excellent guides - Dat from Hoi An Express gets mentioned often by name for really knowing his stuff and going the extra mile. Intrepid's cycling tours are particularly strong, with guide Seen receiving special mentions for running smooth, professional trips. Their support teams do a great job keeping everyone comfortable and on track during the rides. Something to note about Hoi An Express - while the guides are great, some of our customers mention the transport could be more comfortable and the daily schedules need clearer communication. G Adventures brings solid variety and good environmental practices to their tours, though guide quality varies between trips and you'll want to budget for some extra costs during included activities that aren't fully covered. The practical choice really depends on what you're after. For cycling specifically, Intrepid is the way to go. If you want broad cultural experiences, both Prestigo Asia and Hoi An Express deliver well-organized trips. G Adventures works if you're interested in sustainable tourism and don't mind some variable guide experiences.

Best time to visit South East Asia
- Winter 2025 / 2026
Winter works perfectly for Southeast Asia with cool temps and clear skies. The multi-country tours give you proper time in each place - you'll want that extra morning at Angkor Wat when the sunrise lights up the ancient stones just right. Afternoons are free to wander Siem Reap's local markets and food stalls. Over in Halong Bay, you'll spend nights on traditional boats, kayaking to hidden coves and dining on fresh-caught seafood right on deck. These winter routes include hands-on craft workshops in Luang Prabang and early morning alms with the monks. Our customers really like how we mix guided temple visits with free afternoons to explore the local scenes and daily life.

- Spring 2026
Spring weather is just right across Southeast Asia and our river-focused tours really shine this time of year. You'll get quality time in the Mekong Delta, joining the morning buzz at floating markets, learning traditional candy-making and staying with local families in riverside homes. Up in northern Vietnam, Hanoi's Old Quarter comes alive with spring festivals and Hoi An's countryside is perfect for cycling. The morning temple visits around Chiang Mai are quieter this season, and our travelers tell us they love combining these with afternoon cooking classes and market walks. The ethical elephant sanctuaries are a highlight too - you'll see rescued elephants living naturally while learning about real conservation work.

- Summer 2026
Summer tours work smart with early starts and cultural activities when it heats up. Popular routes kick off in Bangkok with evening food tours by tuk-tuk before heading north to Chiang Mai's temples and bustling markets. Vietnam's summer itineraries mix dawn market visits with Hoi An cooking classes and afternoon cruises in Halong Bay. Our customers really appreciate how we balance active mornings with laid-back afternoons - there's always time to explore solo or cool off in local cafes. The overnight trains between stops add a real adventure element and our travelers say it's actually a comfortable way to cover more ground.
- Fall / Autumn 2026
Fall creates ideal conditions for river and rural exploration. The autumn Mekong tours include two-day boat journeys from Thailand to Laos, giving you real insight into river life. You'll explore small villages, discover cave temples packed with Buddha statues and spend nights in riverside communities. Down in Vietnam's Delta, you can cycle through fruit farms, visit family workshops and learn about local trades. Our customers appreciate how these tours mix guided activities with free time to explore markets, try street dishes and find quiet temples away from crowds. Fall weather makes outdoor activities just right, whether you're biking Angkor's outer temples or paddling through Halong Bay.
