It’s always a good time to go travelling in Thailand and Vietnam. Most months of the year you will experience sunshine and possibly some rain. It’s usually quite hot and humid, but it can occasionally get cold, especially in the north of Vietnam between November and February, so it’s always best to bring a couple of warm layers with your summer clothing.
This trip features a more premium standard of accommodation of approx. 4 star standard. While also including some slightly more rugged and authentic experiences such as floating bungalows, treehouses in the jungle, local homestays and an overnight train.
Vietnam is a large country, and we experience a lot of it! So expect some longer travel days, with some loud motorbike traffic in the main centres. In Thailand, you will be on a variety of private and public transport including one overnight sleeper train in a multi-share cabin. This is a great way to experience the real Thailand.
Delicious vegetarian cuisine is plentiful in Vietnam and Thailand, however strict gluten free and vegan can be harder as egg and fish sauce are common ingredients. But we will do our best to provide suitable options. A wide variety of Western meals is not common, however the authentic local food is outstanding!
This tour also includes a good amount of walking, a hill tribe trek and cycling day tour, so an average level of fitness is recommended.

What if I'm travelling solo?
If you're struggling to convince your friends to join you on an adventure, you're not alone!

The majority of our group members are solo travellers, so joining one of our group tours is a great way to meet people and make friends. Before your trip starts we'll put you in touch with the rest of your group so you can start chatting and get to know each other. And after the trip a lot of people continue travelling with the new friends they've made!
