  • Days 1-3

    Northern Vietnam

    Plan to arrive in Hanoi early to adjust to the time change. Take a walk through the Old Quarter in the afternoon but stay alert for motorbikes that often ignore crossings. "The transportation was well organized and at very convenient locations, making it easy to navigate Hanoi's busy streets," according to a recent visitor. Take the 4-hour drive to Halong Bay on Day 2. Book a morning departure to skip Hanoi's rush hour traffic. Your cruise includes kayaking and cave exploration. Pack water shoes since the limestone caves get slippery. You'll spend the night on the boat, where you can watch the sunset and join morning Tai Chi on deck.

    
  • Days 4-5

    Central Vietnam (Hoi An)

    Fly to Danang and take a 30-minute drive to Hoi An. The ancient town looks its best at night when lanterns light up the streets. One guest noted: "Our guide in Hoi An was very knowledgeable, and we loved the cooking class. The market tour was really interesting." Visit the Japanese Covered Bridge before 8:30 AM to avoid crowds. If you want tailored clothes, place your order right away to allow time for fittings. Look for the best fabric shops on Tran Hung Dao Street.

    
  • Days 6-7

    Siem Reap, Cambodia

    Visit the temples at Angkor Wat early in the morning when it's cooler and less busy. A past visitor shared: "The cool lemongrass towels the driver handed us after every temple were amazing. Definitely helped with the heat." Pack modest clothing for temples (cover shoulders and knees). Bring US dollars since many places prefer them to local currency. Check the schedule for Bakan Tower at Angkor Wat. It closes four days each month for religious ceremonies.

    
  • Days 8-10

    Phuket, Thailand

    Spend your final days on Phuket's beaches. Stay near Kata Beach for a good mix of relaxation and activities. Hit the beach between 7-10 AM before the heat picks up. You can take a boat trip to the Phi Phi Islands, about 2 hours away.

  • Day 1

    Bangkok, Thailand

    Begin your adventure in Bangkok's bustling streets. "The energy here is electric - get to Khao San Road early evening when it's buzzing but not overwhelming." Spend your evening getting familiar with the area and meeting other travelers. Book a hotel near the BTS Skytrain to avoid Bangkok's heavy traffic and make airport transfers easier.

    
  • Days 2-3

    Siem Reap, Cambodia

    Take the journey across the Thai-Cambodia border (2-3 hours) to reach Siem Reap. "Watching the monks collect alms at sunrise was humbling. Bring a shawl—it gets chilly in the morning." Set your alarm for 5:30 AM to catch the Angkor Wat sunrise tour. You'll need good walking shoes and lots of water for 6-8 hours of temple exploration. In the evening, check out Pub Street and try some unusual street foods like fried tarantulas.

    
  • Days 4-5

    Phnom Penh

    Take the 6-7 hour bus ride to Cambodia's capital city. "The street food crawl was incredible - our guide knew exactly where to find the best local spots away from tourist traps." Visit the Killing Fields in the morning to avoid the heat. Remember to bring small USD bills since many vendors don't take cards or provide change.

    
  • Days 6-7

    Koh Rong Island

    Travel 4 hours by road and 1 hour by ferry to reach this island paradise. "The bioluminescent plankton at night was magical, but bring water shoes as the beach can be rocky." If you're visiting during monsoon season (June-October), be prepared for possible changes to island activities. The team will arrange mainland alternatives if ferries can't run.

    
  • Day 8

    Chambok Village

    Get a taste of rural Cambodian life with a village homestay. "The home-cooked Khmer dinner was the best meal of our trip." Pack clothes that cover your knees and shoulders to respect local traditions. Bring mosquito repellent for the evening hours.

    
  • Days 9-10

    Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

    Cross into Vietnam (border crossing takes 2-3 hours) and explore the vibrant former Saigon.

End your trip with drinks at one of the city's rooftop bars.
