Vietnam, Laos & Thailand

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand together form one of Southeast Asia's most iconic travel corridors, stretching from the South China Sea coast through landlocked mountain highlands to the Gulf of Thailand. Vietnam draws visitors with its dramatic karst landscapes at Ha Long Bay, vibrant street food culture in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, and a rich history shaped by ancient kingdoms and modern conflict. Laos offers a slower pace — saffron-robed monks in Luang Prabang, the mighty Mekong River, and remote jungle trekking. Thailand anchors the region with its world-class cuisine, ornate temples, legendary nightlife, and a diverse geography ranging from northern hill tribe villages to idyllic southern islands.

Vietnam, Laos & Thailand: Riversides & Railways (Self-Launched)

A self-launched 22-day overland run from Ho Chi Minh City to Bangkok following the same riversides-and-railways route as G Adventures' AVVL trip — but assembled on your own with sleeper trains, local buses, the Laos–China high-speed railway and a Mekong slow boat. You'll do it all: Nha Trang's beaches and mud baths, Hoi An's tailors and noodle cooking class, the Imperial City of Hue, Phong Nha's caves, a Ha Long Bay junk cruise, Hanoi's bia hoi corner, Vientiane, Vang Vieng's karsts, Luang Prabang's Kuang Si waterfalls, Chiang Mai's night markets and a longtail finish in Bangkok. Costs are realistic backpacker estimates in GBP and cover land transport, beds and the key paid activities — international flights are extra.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Vietnam, Laos & Thailand yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Eat the strangest thing on the menu every single day for a week and document the regret."
