The long tour is a great choice to explore the regions of Vietnam and Cambodia. It's surprising that each destination I visited has its own unique characteristics. I experienced various types of transportation during the tour journey, such as long buses, motorbikes, trains, and planes.
Hanoi is a capital city that blends the old vibe with the chaotic pace of urban life. Halong Bay is a peaceful and relaxing coastal wonder. The mountainous region of Sapa offers vast forests and a rich cultural color of ethnic minorities. Hue is a calm and gentle ancient capital. My Son’s relics showcase ancient Champa architecture. The night tour in Ho Chi Minh City was super exciting. The Mekong Delta, a water-rich region, weaves lives with boats. The Cu Chi Tunnels showed an underground network of fighting tunnels that the Vietnamese people dug and expanded for many years.
From Saigon, a coach journey to Cambodia is an alternative to flying. The journey by coach is quite long but manageable with regular rest stops. The visit to the capital city of Phnom Penh includes many important historical sites and landmarks that emerged only a few decades ago. The former capital of the ancient Angkor Empire, Siem Reap, is also bustling, with countless temple relics preserving the grandeur of that era.
