This Impressive South East Asia holiday will take you Thailand, Laos and Cambodia in under three weeks. After a short stop in Bangkok you’ll set off on a journey through Laos, beginning in Vientiane, with its French colonial influences. Then, you’ll head to Luang Prabang, voted by many travellers as ‘most’ fun destination in South East Asia. Experience life among the elephants as a mahout and enjoy a trek through the rice paddies with spectacular views across the mountain valleys. Across the border in Cambodia, you'll travel down the mighty Mekong River to the historic capital Phnom Penh, where you'll spend a couple of days before continuing on by boat to Siem Reap, home to jaw-dropping Angkor Wat. The trip ends back in Bangkok, but if you fancy spoiling yourself with a couple of days on the white tropical beaches at the end of your Thailand, Laos and Cambodia itinerary, you can extend the trip with a short stay on the island of Ko Chang.

You’ll spend a couple of days experiencing authentic rural life during a homestay with a Thai family in the Isaan province. Join the villagers in their daily routine and live life like a local- this is bound to be a highlight of your South East Asia holiday.

Leaving the city behind you’ll travel by boat to one of the seven Wonders of the World; the temples of Angkor Wat.
