Vietnam’s Sights & Sounds
Hanoi – Halong – Hue – Danang – Hoi An – Saigon
Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, has traditionally shown two faces to its visitors. The chaotic yet organized bustle of everyday life and a more bubbly, exciting side that is revealed only to those who venture out after nightfall. Delve deep into Hanoian nights with a privately-guided tour once the sun has set. Taste the local street foods traditionally served on miniature plastic chairs, crouch with locals to listen to the songs so beloved by the Karaoke crowds and smell the scents of a city that never sleeps.
Past & Present Thailand
Bangkok – Kanchanaburi – Ayutthaya – Sukhothai – Lampang – Chiang Mai – Chiang Rai
Discover the rich history of Thailand through its diverse cuisine and ancient kingdoms. Beginning in Bangkok, you will be introduced to the mix of dishes highlighting the confluence of Chinese and Indian cultures. Head north toward Kanchanaburi, Ayutthaya, and Sukhothai and experience life from these kingdoms in former Siam.
Wake Up & Smell the Lao Coffee
