Vietnam & Cambodia

Explore the best of Vietnam and Cambodia independently — from Hanoi's buzzing Old Quarter and the karst seascapes of Ha Long Bay, to Hoi An's lantern-lit streets, the Mekong Delta, and Cambodia's beaches and temples. This self-launched route mirrors the popular Gap360 group tour, swapping the group guide and inflated tour markup for local transport, self-bookable activities, and backpacker-friendly stays. You'll hit every highlight at a fraction of the price, with the freedom to go at your own pace.
