The Intensity of Indochina
For a full 19 days, you will experience all the splendor that is Indochina; from Hanoi, Vietnam, to Phnom Penh, Cambodia. Discover Vietnam’s natural beauty with a cruise in Halong Bay in the Gulf of Tonkin, where you will see many of the diverse islands and experience the traditional routines of those people inhabiting remote regions. Embrace the wonderment as you pass through the mountainous former border of South Vietnam that is referred to as the ‘Pass of the Ocean Clouds’. See sites of religious significance as you travel down the Perfume River on motorboat.
The influence of the outside world has left many footprints on this land and a cross-section of its history can be seen with a tour through the army museum in Dien Bien Phu, where fierce battles against French colonial powers took place; a stroll through the Hoi An World Heritage Site of the My Son complex that contains many Hindu relics; a walk through the underground tunnels of Cu Chi near Ho Chi Minh City, where 10, 000 people lived during the war; or just glancing upon the 400-year-old Japanese Covered Bridge along the Thu Bon River. We head into Cambodia to see many attractions of antiquity, including Angkor Wat, one of the most famous religious structures in the world. Everything you have experienced during this tour will finally begin to soak in as you wrap everything up with a wander through a busy market in Cambodia’s capital, Phnom Penh.
