Your Destinations —
Cambodia
This fascinating country offers a true taste of Southeast Asia before the arrival of tourism and modernisation. It has a diverse landscape from dusty hot cities and mountainous jungles to beautifully calm bays and pristine beaches. At the turn of the millennium, Siem Reap was a Cambodian provincial town with few facilities, minor surfaced roads and little in the way of nightlife. Now it is a major tourist hub due to its proximity to the world-famous temples of Angkor (UNESCO World Heritage Site).
Vietnam
When visiting Vietnam you will discover a country that offers something for every holidaymaker. From the tranquillity of the Mekong Delta, the charms of Hanoi, the natural beauty of Ha Long Bay and the hectic city life found in Ho-Chi-Minh City (Saigon), a Vietnamese holiday offers something for everyone, making it a truly unequalled travel experience.
