Explore the wonderful wonders of Angkor with a new group of friends!

Begin the day at the gigantic Angkor Thom complex, where you can see the distinctive faces of Bayon Temple and the jungle-covered ruins of Ta Prohm (the iconic Tomb Raider Temple). Take a break and enjoy Cambodian food at a local restaurant in the Angkor Complex, but you have to pay yourself.

First, you’ll visit the magnificent Angkor Wat, then proceed to Phnom Bakheng, from which you can witness a lovely sunset in the sky. As only 300 people are allowed at the top, we provide you with ample time to take in the views. At night, we’ll head back to town and ensure that we drop you off comfortably at your hotel.

Start the day by visiting the busy Rulous Market, where vendors trade fresh fruits and vegetables as well as handicraft items. This market gives you an authentic insight into Cambodian life. Next, visit a peaceful pagoda to gain insight into the important religious customs that influence the life and religion of the people.

Continue on your journey to the incredible floating villages, where stilt houses rise above the water, and life bridges schools, farms, and floating hospitals. Observe from your boat how resilient the villagers are as they navigate a world composed of water, overcoming challenges with determined smiles.

Following this amazing experience, go back to your hotel before going to the airport for your flight to Ho Chi Minh City. On arrival, our guide and driver will welcome you to the airport to take you to your hotel, where you can check in from 2:00 PM.

The rest of the day is yours to enjoy at your own pace. Meals are self-arranged. Overnight at the hotel.

Start your day by visiting the legendary Independence Palace, also called the Reunification Palace. This is an important historical emblem of Vietnam and was the design of the noted architect Ngo Viet Thu. Proceed with exploring the French colonial buildings of the city by visiting the beautiful Notre Dame Cathedral and the grand Central Post Office. A trip to the War Remnants Museum will give you a better understanding of Vietnam’s history, with lots of exhibits from the Indochina wars.

You’ll have a tasty lunch at a local restaurant before continuing to the Cu Chi Tunnels, a drive of one and a half hours.

Upon arrival, you’ll watch a video explaining how this complex network of tunnels was built and how people lived here during the war. Then head into the tunnels to see living areas, command centers, rooms for weapon storage, and hidden traps that were all part of Vietnam’s fight against its enemies.

Complete your tour by sampling some specialty tea and cassava, the wartime staple food for guerrilla fighters. Relax, shop, and eat in Ho Chi Minh City during the afternoon, or, for the slightly adventurous, attempt some real shooting practice (optional, at your own cost). In the late afternoon, return to Ho Chi Minh City.

Dinner is self-arranged. Overnight stay at the hotel.

Depart from the bustling streets of Ho Chi Minh City and travel to My Tho, a peaceful riverside town on the left bank of the Mekong River. The first destination is Vinh Trang Pagoda, a beautiful temple that was established in the late 19th century. Then, you’ll board a local sampan and cruise on the Mekong, passing by the four legendary islands: Dragon, Unicorn, Phoenix, and Tortoise.

At Unicorn Island, why don’t you walk along lush orchards, sample fresh tropical fruits, and hear traditional folk music played by island artists? Then, you can head to a family-owned fruit plantation, and slide along the picturesque Thoi Son canal in a sampan hand-rowed by a pleasant boatman. Enjoy honey tea at a honeybee farm, and then visit a coconut candy workshop where the delicious confection is made.

Enjoy a delicious lunch at a local restaurant before taking a rest. In the afternoon, cycle through Tan Thach Village to wave to hospitable villagers and observe everyday life in the Mekong Delta. If cycling is not your interest, simply sit back in a hammock and enjoy the fresh country air. Later in the day, let’s return to Ho Chi Minh City with lifelong memories.

After the Vietnam trip, you’ll enjoy a leisurely morning before your transfer to the airport for your flight. Your transfer will be driver-only, giving you some personal time before departure. Meals are on your own.
