Accommodation

Relax at the end of each day in our expertly curated, handpicked accommodation on this Premium adventure. Each has been chosen for its location, comfort, style, and unique characteristics. The hotels typically used can be found on the day-to-day itinerary. Below are just some of the notable accommodations on this trip. Bangkok: U Sathorn Bangkok Hotel (night 1) The U Sathorn is a peaceful oasis in bustling Bangkok. The rooms (decorated with a contemporary take on the French colonial style) are set around a central courtyard, in the middle of which is the pool. There’s also the J’aime restaurant, founded by chef Jean-Michel Lorain, owner of the Michelin-starred La Côte Saint Jacques in Burgundy. It has an upside-down design concept (with a piano on the ceiling!) and an innovative fine-dining menu. Siem Reap: Lynnaya Urban River Resort & Spa (nights 5-7) Relax at this intimate riverside resort, which sits in the heart of Siem Reap. For ultimate peace, there’s the Nirvana Spa, which offers a traditional Khmer massage, plus tropical gardens and a freshwater pool. The Palate restaurant serves modern Cambodian cuisine made from fresh, local ingredients, and has a sky bar for cocktails with a river view. Cai Be: Mekong Riverside Boutique Resort & Spa (night 11) Unwind while enjoying Mekong Delta hospitality at this riverside boutique resort. Find ultimate relaxation with a treatment or two at the Oasis Spa or with a dip in the outdoor pool. There’s also the Mekong Medley restaurant, which serves local and international cuisines, plus two bars: one by the pool, the other at the restaurant (where you can enjoy your drink on the balcony for views over the Mekong). Ho Chi Minh City: The Odys Boutique Hotel (nights 12-13) In the heart of Ho Chi Minh City, and close to the main attractions, The Odys is well placed for exploring. The rooms are tastefully designed, combining both Vietnamese and European aesthetics, and you can enjoy a massage or treatment at the Nu Spa. The Sky Lounge, a rooftop bar with panoramic views of Ho Chi Minh City, is the ideal spot to toast our adventure together. Worth knowing The accommodation shown has been booked and agreed in advance; however, we may need to make changes to a property of similar or higher standard after you have booked. We endeavour to inform you of any changes in advance, which could, on rare occasions, be at late notice. It is possible to book additional nights before or after the tour, subject to availability – please enquire for details and prices.

Travel Insurance
We strongly recommend purchasing travel insurance alongside your travel package to safeguard against unforeseen circumstances such as medical expenses, trip cancellations, and other contingencies. It offers you peace of mind and ensures you are prepared for unexpected events that may occur before or during your journey
Visa requirements
Visa requirements vary depending on your country of origin and your country of destination. It is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with the relevant requirements. For a handy tool that can help you quickly find the requirements, please visit this link .
Meals Included
All breakfasts, five lunches and six dinners are included. The food on this trip is a real highlight for many. Southeast Asian cuisine is known for its abundance of freshly prepared dishes with strong aromatic flavours. There is a focus on herbs and citrus to ensure each dish packs a punch; chilli does feature highly too but is easily avoided. Typically, most dishes come with rice and many are often served in a banana leaf with a variety of dips and herbs served separately. The three countries visited ensure a different culinary experience every time you cross the border: ensure you try freshly made pad Thai noodles from the street stalls of Bangkok; the fish amok curry in Cambodia for a creamy coconut-based fragrant curry; and banh xeo (huge sizzling pancakes) in Vietnam. Western food is available almost everywhere except in the Mekong Delta region. Vegetarians are well catered for but please inform us before departure of any special dietary requests. Please note, the availability of certain specialised products for restricted diets (eg gluten-free or dairy-free) is minimal or non-existent and we strongly recommend you bring these specialised dietary items from home. You may find it beneficial to bring energy bars or gels with you from home to use during a ride. However, on Premium Adventure cycling departures, an included snack kitty is provided usually consisting of fresh fruit, nuts, biscuits and local snacks along with drinks and electrolyte powders.
