South East Asia Loop

Explore the well-known highlights and lesser-known spots of South East Asia on an epic month-long trip. Starting off in Bangkok, get lost in the chaos of Thailand's capital city before soaking up Chiang Mai’s more relaxed pace. Cruise along the Mekong River to reach peaceful Luang Prabang – a colourful town dotted with monks, pop-up stalls and French-inspired eateries. In Vietnam, cruise through dramatic karst scenery on a boat tour of Ha Long Bay, travel back to the time of Vietnam’s emperors in Hue, soak up the old-world charm of Hoi An and be wowed by the endless energy of Ho Chi Minh City. Then discover Cambodia's fascinating history and culture in Phnom Penh's bustling streets and in the awe-inspiring temples of Angkor, before wrapping up the adventure back in Thailand.
