    Very comprehensive itinerary, gives you multifacetted insight into this beautiful, diverse country. Accommodation superior to what I experienced on other Intrepid Premium trips, all hotels were really nice. Great team! The driver, assistant and tour leader went above and beyond every single day, I felt pampered. Cham, our tour leader, was engaging, knowledgeable, and passionate about his country!

      If you are able to do four people at say 2 Sep to 16 Sep for $4,917 we may be keen.

The current cost for this departure is AUD $6,210 per person. The price you are seeing around $4,917 is likely listed in USD.

    • Intrepid PremiumOperatorWritten May 2025

      At Intrepid, we don't provide international airfare services, so flights from the UK would need to be arranged separately. However, once you've made your reservation, we'd be happy to help organize your transfer from airport to the hotel.
