Head west from Ho Chi Minh City for a tour of Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand. Take in bustling cities, rural scenery and spend three nights by the magnificent Angkor temple complex. After a night in Vietnam’s biggest city you’ll drive through country landscape to cross the border into Cambodia and arrive at the capital Phnom Penh. You’ll have a chance to visit the Killing Fields and learn about the nation’s troubled recent history and also see Phnom Penh’s beautiful pagodas and temples. Continuing your journey, stop for three nights in the lively town of Siem Reap, gateway to the unforgettable temples and ruins of Angkor. Here an expert local guide will take you temple hopping, making sure you visit jungle-covered Ta Prohm and Angkor Wat itself. Depending on the time of year, you’ll next take a boat trip on Tonle Sap Lake or, from October to February, continue by water all the way to Cambodia’s second-largest city Battambang.
