Even though I was the only person on this trip, I cannot thank Explore highly enough for the excellent liaison with the local partners to ensure I had a safe and seamless trip. Although most days were spent in Cambodia, it was interesting having some time in Thailand and Vietnam as well. I would highly recommend this trip.

Our tour guide on the Vietnam section was Jackie Lee. Jackie was an excellent guide, always readily available to provide full support throughout the trip. Nothing was too much trouble. Jackie's enthusiasm and passion for his country and his role as a tour guide was clear. We visited many excellent restaurants on his advice and he added more fun with his personality to what was a very enjoyable tour. The itinerary was interesting and varied, we would definitely recommend. On the Cambodia section of the tour Sitha was our guide. His knowledge of the country and passion for his subject was fantastic and again he was supportive during the tour. In regard to the itinerary it started off more varied but the last 3 days we packed in 18 Temples which we felt was too many to fully appreciate the experience. Nevertheless we had a great time experiencing the Cambodian culture and would recommend the tour.
