This is also what you will find on this journey. Laos shows us its relaxed and calm side as we start the journey in Vientiane, Laos’s sleepy capital. Champasak, the Bolaven Plateau and Laos’ Mekong river life also offer a tranquil start to our journey. Once we enter Cambodia, however, our adventure begins in earnest.

North-East Cambodia is a world unto itself, its wild and mountainous landscapes a home for ethnic minorities and an abundance of natural attractions.

In Central Cambodia you will experience local life and schools of Khmer and Muslim communities. Explore Siem Reap and the iconic Angkor temples, before continuing to up-and-coming Battambang, reminiscent of Siem Reap before the advent of mass tourism, filled with graceful Indochinese architecture and home to a thriving contemporary art scene.

From here we take you onto an adventure drive through the Cardamom Mountains, part of a vast tropical forest that is home to elusive wildlife.

Finally experience the rhythm of rural life and landscapes of dazzling rice paddies and swaying sugar palms on the way to Cambodia’s gorgeous south coast, the shore fringed with tropical islands and fishing villages.The vast majority of visitors to Laos and Cambodia focus on a mere handful of sights. This journey will take you to little-visited parts of the region, as you discover the mysteries of Indochina.
