What's this trip about?

    A superb trip for families and individuals, this is a marvelous blend of the Vietnamese Mekong world and the magnificence of the Cambodian Khmer civilization. Beginning in the marvelous city of Hanoi, you explore the old city, do tai chi by the lake, learn to cook Vietnamese food, and enjoy some typical Vietnamese music. From Hanoi, you travel to Danang to see the museum, before heading to the marvelous Viet Chinese port town of Hoi An. Here you can see Vietnam’s version of Angkor Wat. Flying to Ho Chi Minh City, you wander the markets and dodge the bicycles before ending up in the Mekong Delta. From the delta you take a boat from Vietnam’s Can Tho along the Mekong to Phnom Penh. Your journey finishes in Siem Reap, exploring the temples of the Angkor civilization. Here you take a boat ride to less visited Kompong  Khleang, visit Angkor at dawn for a picnic breakfast and blessing from the monks and see the area in a very special way.
