Mention code 6069831 | | Intrepid Travel | | | | Day | Destination | Description | | Day 1 | Bangkok | Why not kick off the journey with a spicy green curry in Thailand's busy capital? | | Days 2-4 | Siem Reap/Angkor Wat | Immerse yourself in the illustrious history of the Khmer Empire while exploring Angkor's temples. The Bayon will bewitch, as will the crumbling, jungle-covered ruins of Ta Prohm. Angkor Wat is a must, and its silhouette at sunset is spectacular. | | Days 5-6 | Phnom Penh | Cambodia's capital is the perfect place to delve into the country's history and culture. Enjoy a coffee perhaps, at a modern cafe along Sisowath Quay, before going on to see the grim exhibits at the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum. | | Day 7 | Chau Doc | Cross the border to Vietnam by boat, watching riverside life pass by. | | Days 8-10 | Ho Chi Minh City | Clamber down the Cu Chi Tunnels to learn what life was like for Viet Minh soldiers. Afterwards, take to Ho Chi Minh City's streets in a slow-going cyclo - the best way to soak up the sights. | | Days 11-12 | Hoi An | Be seduced by the Old World charm of Hoi An. There's also sumptuous cuisine to sample, and shops selling everything from tailored suits to handmade lanterns. | | Days 13-14 | Hue | Ascend the aptly-named Sea Cloud Pass en route to Hue, the Vietnamese centre of learning, religion and Nguyen imperialism. | | Day 15 | Hanoi | Fill up at the inspirational KOTO restaurant, dedicated to educating Vietnam's street kids, before wandering the shady streets of the capital. | | Day 16 | Halong Bay | Glide past stunning limestone scenery, stopping to explore caves filled with spectacular stone formations. | | Days 17-18 | Hanoi | Spot a lucky tortoise in Hoan Kiem Lake, the serene heart of Hanoi. |
