This is a cultural journey that will guide you through some of
the most commercial and least explored destinations in the
Far East.
Start in an intoxicating city where top-notch hotels and 'bling
bling' shops mix with fascinating heritage and sparkling
reservoirs and then take a passage to a different world. A world
where the colours are more vivid, the culture is richer and
the history more compelling.
Welcome to Vietnam and Cambodia, the latest Asian dragons
to awake from their slumber. Enjoy sunrises over ancient temples,
with golden Buddhas drawing pilgrims from across the globe,
friendly locals who invite you in for tea and sublime
beaches, relatively untouched.
