Humor me for a moment. Imagine you and a couple of your friends have been saving up for the holiday of your lives. It does not just have to be a group of friends, your whole family can do. You have been saving up the best you could, and are ready to take on this holiday with a bang! Within the budget, of course! We cannot forget about the budget, what with the standards of living these days. Sometimes you just need to rewind. Oh, where were we again? Oh, yes, your budgeted vacation. Okay. Now comes the shocker. Imagine you and your group of crazy friends, or your family in tow, can live it up in style and still come back home without a massive dent in your bank account. Where is this place, you ask, where you can experience a heaven on earth? In Vietnam and Cambodia of course! Come on, do we really have to sit down and choose when you can enjoy a customized tour to Vietnam and Cambodia? I am talking about a customized holiday to Vietnam and Cambodia during a family tour to Vietnam and Cambodia.
During your Vietnam and Cambodia tour or family tour to Vietnam and Cambodia, you can visit exotic places, dance on the streets eating the tastiest local dishes, bask in the powdery beaches as you stare into the turquoise water. Done with relaxing and want to kick in some adrenaline to take it all the way? Entertain yourself and paraglide across the beach, take a hike through the jungles and find lost temples. Get in touch with your spiritual side and go on a pilgrimage, and discover the new meaning of life. These are just a few examples I could conjure up in my mind on a heartbeat. What follows are detailed examples of the best sites to visit, in both Vietnam and Cambodia.
CAMBODIA
This is a South-Eastern Asian country filled with plains housing endless rice paddies, numerous mountains with thick jungles, and sandy beaches off the Gulf of Thailand. The country went through a hellish struggle in the 1970’s during the reign of the Khmer Empire. The people of a Cambodia have, since then, picked themselves up and shaken the dust from their clothes. They have become the most genuine, hardworking people that you see today, who welcome visitors with open arms and always have a smile on their faces. Below are the must-see sights in Cambodia.
ANGKOR WAT
This destination is also known as the ‘city temple’, and within it stands the largest temple in all of Cambodia. It is no secret that Angkor Wat is Cambodia’s national symbol, and much rightfully so when you witness the magnificence and sheer beauty of it all. The Angkor Wat was built in the first half of the 12th Century during the turf between Thailand and Cambodia. In all its sheer glory and vastness, Angkor Wat attracts hundreds of visitors each year. This year during you customized tour to Cambodia, you and your group of family and friends can experience this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
KOH KIER
This was, once upon a time, the capital of the Khmer Empire, and is decorated with hundreds of sculptures and elaborate buildings that will put the Vatican City to shame…to some extent. Within Koh Kier, you will find a giant Garuda, which is a half man half bird mythical creature. Let’s hope for some peaceful nights to come after your children lay their eyes on this mythical creature. Also in Koh Kier exists a Prasat Thom, which is a really tall pyramid temple rising above the treetops in the jungle. Koh Kier still has much to offer seeing as the town is so remote. This is a blessing in disguise as your group of friends and you get to backpack through the jungle and discover other lost temples on your own. This is definitely something you did not think about putting in your bucket-list.
VIETNAM
Vietnam is a beautiful South-East Asian country that is geographically shaped like a letter ‘S’. It boasts magnificent mountains in the north, including lush jungles. Towards the south lies the great sandy beaches and pristine blue waters of the South China Sea and the Gulf of Thailand. Vietnam is a must-visit country during your customized holiday to Vietnam.

NHA TRANG
Nha Trang is one of the world’s most beautiful and popular seaside resort city. This goes a long way with Nha Trang being located at the scenic bay that stretches off the coast of South of Vietnam.
