Trips to Southeast Asia can feel like they're non-stop, which is why we've crafted this 16-day tour to be as restorative as it is informative and inspiring. You'll cruise through narrow canals in the Mekong Delta, then visit the Cambodian capital of Phnom Penh and stunning Angkor Wat temple complex. By the time you reach the eastern islands of Thailand (with a stop in Bangkok en route), your beach time will be well-earned. Trek rainforest trails to deserted beaches, discover marine life while snorkelling, or simply kick back and unwind in the sun. You can fill in your time as much or as little as you like.
