Juan
Asked on June 20th, 2025does this trip come with an solo traveler option, or it should be a group?
The Dragon TripOperator•Written June 2025This is a group tour that welcomes solo travellers! The majority of guests on the trip will be solo travellers, but sometimes people travel in pairs. Come the end of the trip, you'll likely have made new friends.

Vicky
Asked on June 2nd, 2025I'd like to know if this is group travel or is the itinerary only for us.
- The Dragon TripOperator•Written June 2025
This trip can accommodate up to 25 guests. If you're interested in a private tour, the minimum number of guests we can create a trip for is 4.
- V
Vicky
Traveler•Written June 2025We would like to travel independently through Viet Nam (Hanoi, HCMC), Cambodia (Siem Riep), Thailand (Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai?) and Laos (Shompoo cruise to Luang Prabang). I have already mapped out activities and logistics, approx 25 days. Something more turn key is appealing. If we wanted the 31 day trip done privately, what would be the cost (tour plus local costs)?
- The Dragon TripOperator•Written June 2025
The minimum number of guests we can do a private tour for is 4. Do you have anyone else that might want to join you 2 on the trip?
- V
Vicky
Traveler•Written June 2025No, it is only the two of us.
- The Dragon TripOperator•Written June 2025
I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to build a private tour for you with only 2 people. Otherwise, you could join one of our group tours if that might interest you.

Asked on May 15th, 2025I am interested in joining the 31-Day Southeast Asia Adventure: Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, and Cambodia tour with a larger group. I would prefer a minimum of 12+ others in the group. I'll be a single male in my early 40's. I am flexible on dates. Is there one which you would recommend as a better date to pick over the others?
- The Dragon TripOperator•Written May 2025
Historically, our January and February departure have the largest groups as it's the most popular time of the year to go. We currently have 2 people booked on the January 5th departure date and we're confident that the date will fill up closer to the departure.

Christopher
Traveler•Written May 2025For the optional activities, are those paid for at the time of the event or do they require prepayment? I expect to do nearly all of them and wish to plan accordingly.
- The Dragon TripOperator•Written May 2025
All the optional activities on your tour can be booked/arranged during the trip and using local currency (cash), so you do not need to organize them prior to travelling. The Adventure Leader will be able to assist you in arranging these optional activities.

Asked on April 19th, 2025How fit do you need to be to take this tour? I'd say I'm relatively unfit and don't want to not enjoy it. If it isn't the right tour for me, do you have any similar ones that require less intensity?
- The Dragon TripOperator•Written April 2025
This trip is intended for most fitness levels to join. If at any point you feel like an activity wouldn't be suitable for you, then you don't have to participate. We would never force you into a situation you wouldn't feel comfortable. Is there a particular activity you're concerned about on the itinerary?
- J
Joanna
Traveler•Written April 2025It is mainly the jungle trek and the fact I can't ride a bike. Would there be a way to still see the lotus fields etc without needing to ride a bike?
- The Dragon TripOperator•Written April 2025
We'll reach out to our operations team to check if there are any alternatives to the cycling activity and get back to you as soon as possible. This tour can be quite intensive at times with 15,000-20,000 steps per day and activities like the jungle trek and cycling.
- The Dragon TripOperator•Written April 2025
Our team has confirmed that they can help arrange a private vehicle to follow the same path. This would have an extra cost which will be confirmed while on the tour but essentially would be a taxi transfer service.

Asked on April 19th, 2025I want to join the 31-day Southeast Asia tour, and there is an age restriction. I am 51 and I am backpacking India and Asia right now
- The Dragon TripOperator•Written April 2025
I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to accommodate you on this trip. Although our recommended age range is 18-45, the majority of guests that join this trip are 18-25. The recommended age range is based on extensive feedback we've received for this trip over the years we've been operating in Southeast Asia. Additionally, we wouldn't want to recommend you a trip we don't think you would enjoy.

Lucy
Asked on March 24th, 2025Do I need to apply for visa for Vietnam prior to booking this trip or I can apply closer to when I want to travel? Is it easy process to obtain visa or can it be refused?
- The Dragon TripOperator•Written March 2025
It's up to you when you decide to apply for a visa for Vietnam. There's limited advice we can offer on this because they're a legal government issued document and any decision made when applying has to be made by you. I'd suggest you enquire with your local Vietnamese embassy or search the Canadian/Vietnamese government website for more information about visas to Vietnam.

Sidney
Asked on March 13th, 2025How can I arrange my accommodation before the tour begins?
- The Dragon TripOperator•Written March 2025
You can arrange your pre-tour accommodation through us, and additional costs for private or dorm rooms apply.

Asked on March 1st, 2025What should I do if I lose contact with my travel group or need assistance?

Asked on March 1st, 2025Can I book airport pickups through the tour services?

Natasha
Asked on February 5th, 2025Is there a wait-list for the tour leaving on April 21?
- The Dragon TripOperator•Written February 2025
This departure date was cancelled due to low interest. We have departures available on April 14th or 28th.

Natasha
Traveler•Written February 2025I get 30 days to travel between the last week of april and the beginning of memorial weekend.
- The Dragon TripOperator•Written February 2025
Do you have any flexibility with the destination? We could check if there are other tours we could recommend for that time?
- N
Natasha
Traveler•Written February 2025My ideal is for a tour to start on April 23 or 24 so I dont have to stress about rushing to get there and could spend a night before the tour starts.
