What's this trip about?

    The world's a big place, but for those in the know, South East Asia is on the radar as the continent that has it all with thousands of ways to thrill and chill. Experience amazing contrasts such as from Thailand's capital, where Mercedes compete with tuk tuks and skyscrapers press against ramshackle shop houses, to the serenity of the postcard-perfect Mekong Delta which is all rice paddy fields, coconut palms and sugar fields being tended by farmers in conical shaped hats. Experience the unique and intriguing country that is Laos, with its isolated villages, peaceful and spiritual tribes and French colonial past. Be spellbound as you move from Angkor Wat in Cambodia's jungle to the French colonial atmosphere of Phnom Penh, learning about this fascinating country's tortuous past along the way. This is a tour that allows you to explore and experience all the thrillsand chills of Thailand, Laos and Cambodia.
