Ideally, 10 to 14 days gives you enough time to explore Vietnam from north to south without rushing. But even a shorter trip of 7 days can be very rewarding if well planned. We can tailor the itinerary to fit your time and interests.

Ideally, 7 to 10 days is perfect to experience Cambodia’s top destinations without rushing. If you're short on time, even 4 to 5 days is enough to see Angkor Wat and get a taste of local culture. For a deeper and more relaxed journey, 2 weeks allows you to explore the temples, countryside, riverside towns, and coastlines.

The best months to visit Cambodia are from November to February, during the dry season. The weather is cooler and more comfortable for sightseeing, especially around Angkor Wat. This is also a great time to explore rural areas and enjoy boat rides in Tonlé Sap or along the Mekong.

For a well-rounded trip, 7 to 10 days is ideal. This allows you to explore two or three regions at a relaxed pace. If you’re short on time, even 4-5 days can cover Luang Prabang and its surroundings. But for a more in-depth experience, especially if you enjoy nature, local life, and slow travel, 2 weeks is perfect.

Both countries are beautiful and worth visiting, but they offer very different experiences:

• Vietnam is ideal if you're looking for variety. It offers dynamic cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, stunning natural landscapes like Ha Long Bay and the Mekong Delta, rich history, vibrant street food culture, and a wide range of activities from mountains to beaches.
• Laos is better suited for travelers who prefer a slower, more peaceful pace. It’s known for its natural beauty, Buddhist culture, friendly locals, and charming towns like Luang Prabang and Vang Vieng. It’s perfect for those seeking authenticity, tranquility, and outdoor adventures.

In short:

• Choose Vietnam for diversity, energy, and variety.
• Choose Laos for relaxation, nature, and cultural depth.
