What people love about touring South East Asia solo
Where do I even start. We had a wonderful time on this tour. The communication from Ashley from Realistic Asia was great. She even met us in Hanoi half way through to see how things were progressing. We enjoyed every part of Hanoi. The titans hotel was in a great location and very well appointed. The tours into the Hanoi country side were educational and quite fun. My favorite was the river cruise where the oars woman moved the oars with her feet through various natural tunnels. The Halong bay cruise was relaxing and luxurious. It rained, but we had a great time anyhow. The transfer to Cambodia was a long day, but ran smooth. Our guides in Cambodia were very attentive and knowledgeable. They were with us every step of the 3 days. They even recommended a dinner show and offered to set it up and drive us to/from for a small fee. We would have not changed a thing. We saw the best of the Angkor Wat complex. Again, the transfer from Cambodia to Thailand was a long day, but ran smoothly. We thought Thailand was going to be just the hotel, but we were surprised when we had a guide in Thailand as well that answered all our questions on the drive to the hotel. Kai setup a day trip to Phi Phi and is readily available to us on WhatsApp for any questions (even after the tour officially ended). In conclusion, we would highly recommend this tour and realistic asia. This was our 1st time in SE Asia and they made is seamless!
Treasures of Southeast Asia In 11 Days (Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand)
- Vietnam, Cambodia & Thailand In 10 Days - Private Tour
We booked a Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand 10-days tour with Realistic Asia and they were excellent. Everything was well organized. The tour guides were nice and friendly. The itinerary was great! Our Agent, Long Pham, was incredible. He followed up and made sure that we were well taken care of. We highly recommend it, and will surely book with them again in the future.
- Highlight of Southeast Asia in 10 Days - Halong Bay/ Siem Reap / Bangkok
Day 2 itinerary - there was an activity not included on the tour at the end of the day that we’re not aware about but in order to participate we have to pay an admission fee, which we did to participate. The tour guide z(lily) should summarize at the start of the day the activities for the day to inform us what to expect or if it’s consistent with our listed itinerary. During the biking tour to the temple the instructions was unclear where to meet, we got behind the group and before reaching the temple a couple on the side of the road motioned for us to stop and “to deposit the bike to them” and told us “if we need to use the bike up to the temple we have to pay them 100 VND” . We left the bike with them and decided to walk the rest of the way to the temple. This was reported to Lily the tour guide who said “ the biking should be up to the temple and she will talk to the couple” who told us to leave the bike with them on the side of the road. 3 nights in Cambodia is too much with not much to do after the half day excursions on Day 6, we could have flown to Bangkok and spent extra night in Bangkok, or in Vietnam where there are more things to do. The Mandarin hotel in Bangkok is excellent the hotel in Hanoi in the French Quarter and Siem Reap are comfortable and centrally located. Breakfast food selections are excellent with wide variety in the Mandarin Hotel in Bangkok, in the other 2 hotels in Hanoi and Siem Reap the breakfast food are just okay. Service and staff are excellent. Tour guide Lili in Hanoi, needs improvements in communication although all the tour guides are extra nice and
What our customers ask about South East Asia Tours for Solo Travelers
How much free time is typically available for solo exploration?
Most Southeast Asian tours strike a balance between scheduled activities and independent exploration offering 2-3 free evenings in each destination. In Hoi An travelers can spend afternoons wandering the lantern-lit Ancient Town at their own pace. Bangkok itineraries often include a full free day for shopping markets or visiting temples. As one solo traveler noted: "The mix of structured touring and personal time was perfect for meeting others while still maintaining independence."
What's the typical age range and demographic of solo travelers on these tours?
Tour groups tend to draw travelers between 44-55 years old with solo participants making up 30-50% of most departures. The activities and pace suit both experienced travelers and first-time visitors to the region. One TourRadar reviewer mentioned: "As a solo traveler in my 40s I found plenty of like-minded companions especially during activities like the cooking class at Mrs. Chin's home in Vietnam."
How do the single supplements compare between different accommodation levels?
Additional costs for single rooms vary based on hotel category. Budget-conscious travelers can expect around $500 extra for 3-star hotels like Villa Chitdara in Luang Prabang while 4-star properties like Tirant Hotel Hanoi run about $800 more. Luxury 5-star accommodations such as Angkor Miracle Resort typically add $1100+ to the base price. Some operators offer room-sharing programs to help avoid these fees.
What safety considerations should solo travelers keep in mind?
Southeast Asia's main tourist areas maintain strong safety records with reliable support networks for visitors. Tour packages include airport transfers local guides and round-the-clock emergency assistance. A recent TourRadar review noted: "Our guide made sure to check on us when we went out in the evenings to ensure we returned safely to Tirant Hotel in Hanoi." Well-traveled areas like Bangkok's Sukhumvit and Hanoi's Old Quarter remain active and well-lit at night.
How social are these South East Asia group tours for solo travelers?
Groups stay small with 12-15 travelers creating natural opportunities for connection. Solo travelers make up roughly 30-40% of participants with some trips drawing even more independent explorers. On Intrepid's Vietnam-Cambodia-Thailand cycling tour 73% of guests travel solo. The intimate size allows for genuine interactions whether watching sunrise at Angkor Wat or sailing Halong Bay aboard vessels like La Pandora Cruise.
How does dining work for solo travelers on these tours?
The tour package covers daily breakfasts plus several shared meals such as the traditional Apsara performance dinner in Siem Reap and seafood feasts during Halong Bay cruises. According to a TourRadar review: "The group meals were great for socializing and trying local specialties together." When dining independently guides can suggest welcoming restaurants near hotels in areas like Hanoi's Old Quarter or Siem Reap's Pub Street.
