Solo-ish Vietnam & Cambodia

This tour begins in Vietnam's capital, Hanoi, where a night among the motorbikes sets the tone before heading to Ha Long Bay. Here, an overnight on a junk boat reveals limestone karsts from a quieter vantage point, with chances to kayak or swim amidst the calm waters. Following this, Hoi An offers freer moments in its old town and a noodle-making class for a food-focused interlude.

Crossing into Cambodia, the trip includes time in Siem Reap to witness temples such as Angkor Wat at sunrise, the Bayon's tangled roots at Ta Prohm, and the silk-carving details at Banteay Srei. Phnom Penh lends a somber but vital historical counterpoint, while stays in the Mekong Delta and the nature-rich Cardamom Mountains introduce river life and rural community experiences. The tropical island of Koh Rong provides an opportunity to unwind, with crystal-clear waters and rainforest hikes.

Accompanied by a G Adventures CEO and local guides, this small escorted holiday moves by a series of transport modes — motorbike tours, tuk-tuks, boats and bikes — giving a paced but immersive lens on these Southeast Asian countries.
