Some trips are vacations... This trip is a Journey of a Lifetime!
Join Fun Happenings Travel Group as we discover two of Southeast Asia's most captivating countries on an unforgettable 17-night luxury adventure through Cambodia and Vietnam.
From the awe-inspiring temples of Angkor Wat to the lantern-lit streets of Hoi An, from authentic countryside villages to an intimate luxury Mekong River yacht cruise, this journey is filled with extraordinary experiences that few travelers ever have the opportunity to experience.
As with all Fun Happenings tours... Every detail has been thoughtfully taken care of, so you can simply relax, immerse yourself in the culture, and create memories that will last a lifetime.
Our adventure begins in Siem Reap, Cambodia, home to the legendary Angkor Wat—the largest religious monument on Earth and one of the New Seven Wonders of the World! Historians and archeologists compare Angkor Wat to Petra in Jordan, The Pyramids of Giza or the Taj Mahal in India. Yes, it is that extraordinary!
In Siem Reap, we will experience breathtaking ancient temples, enjoy a spectacular welcome dinner featuring traditional Khmer cuisine and cultural performances, then venture beyond the tourist areas on an unforgettable tuk-tuk food safari through the countryside. As the sun sets over a local village, we will share a home-cooked meal with Cambodian families and sample incredible local cuisine at several culinary hidden gems.
Next comes the highlight of our journey—our exclusive 7-night private charter aboard an intimate luxury Mekong River yacht. Cruising one of the world's most fascinating rivers, we will explore floating villages, riverside markets, ancient traditions, silk-weaving communities, Buddhist monasteries, and peaceful landscapes that larger cruise ships simply cannot reach. This is authentic Southeast Asia at its finest.
We then spend five unforgettable nights in Magical Hoi An, widely regarded as Vietnam's most beautiful and charming town. We will wander the lantern-lined streets, we learn the secrets of Vietnamese cooking in a cooking class, glide through coconut palm waterways in traditional bamboo basket boats, stroll the UNESCO-listed Ancient Town, experience the spectacular Hoi An Memories live performance, and visit the iconic Golden Bridge, where the giant stone hands lift a golden walkway high above the mountains. And, you will also have the opportunity to make your own Vietnamese lantern to bring home with you.
In the end of this extraordinary tour, we celebrate the Lunar New Year in Hanoi, one of Asia's most exciting and vibrant cities. We explore the city's hidden neighborhoods aboard a vintage Vietnam War Jeep while sampling incredible local cuisine, wander the charming streets of the Old Quarter, enjoy a dazzling Lunar New Year fireworks show over the city skyline, and celebrate together with a memorable rooftop farewell dinner.
This journey perfectly combines luxury, culture, adventure, incredible food, breathtaking scenery, and unforgettable experiences into one seamless itinerary unlike anything Fun Happenings has offered.
Because our private Mekong River yacht has only 24 cabins, availability is extremely limited. Once those cabins are reserved, this journey is sold out!
If Vietnam and Cambodia have ever been on your travel bucket list... This is certainly the Trip of a Lifetime to Join! Come discover why so many travelers fall in love with Southeast Asia—and why this will become one of the most unforgettable journeys of your life!
