Alluring Vietnam & the Temples of Angkor with Bangkok & Singapore

20 Day Tour from Hanoi to Singapore
Small groups lead to big experiences on this Small Group Discovery tour of Southeast Asia. What’s the most important thing to bring on a journey to Vietnam and Cambodia? Your bargaining skills! The art of haggling is a must at the bustling markets of Hanoi, Siem Reap, and Ho Chi Minh City where you can negotiate everything from luxurious silk to brightly painted ceramics to a tasty bowl of pho. The number one rule of thumb—always be willing to walk away. Luckily, there’s so much to walk toward on this extraordinary tour of Southeast Asia, including the fascinating wartime tunnels of Cu Chi, a fishing lesson on the Thu Bon River, and a breezy cyclo ride around the vibrant city of Hanoi. The picturesque pagodas of Hue and Hanoi are just a taste of what’s to come at the mystical temples of Angkor. Inside the “City of the God Kings,” you’ll find the architecturally magnificent ruins of Angkor Wat delightfully much more than you bargained for.

End your journey in Singapore, one of the world’s great melting pots. Your guide will show you all the highlights, taking you to visit the Gardens by the Bay and Marina Bay, where you ascend to the Skypark Observation Deck to admire beautiful views of the city and its surroundings. Enjoy free time exploring Singapore on your own or book an optional excursion to Kampong Glam or a Malay village. This Small Group Discovery tour is a world apart!
