9before arriving in Siem Reap where we will have a
free day to explore this vibrant city and the
awe-inspiring Angkor Wat temple complex, a UNESCO
World Heritage Site.

to Nakong Ratchasima before heading to Mae Sot

No visit to Northern Thailand would be complete
without a stop in Chiang Mai where we spend the

12We cross into Laos and return to
the Mekong River as we pause in the nations
capital Vientiane, before moving on to Luang
Prabang and then continuing along minor roads to
the very north of the country where we pass back
into Vietnam. The terrain will look very
different from that which we experienced at the
start as we head ever more north following part
of the Ho Chi Minh Trail.

13We tackle a spectacular 200-kilometre mountain
loop that includes Vietnams highest road, the
Tram Ton Pass, from our base in the market town
of Sa Pa with its iconic rice paddies. Then for
the next few days we blaze a trail through
spectacular and remote scenery before winding our
way down to Halong Bay, another World Heritage
Site.
