Most Inspirational Moment
Angkor Wat and the surrounding temples were an obvious highlight, but what made the trip so special was the sheer variety of experiences. From travelling along the Mekong Delta and getting a glimpse of everyday life in local communities to exploring ancient temples and learning about Cambodia's more recent history, there was so much to take in. It was a real privilege to experience places and cultures so different from our own.
Thoughts on Group Leader
We had three leaders, one in each country, and having local people share their knowledge and experiences added so much to the holiday. Each country has its own culture, history and character, and our leaders helped bring that to life in a way that simply visiting the sights independently couldn't. They helped everything run smoothly while giving us a much better understanding of the places and people we encountered. Thank you to all three for helping make it such a memorable adventure.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Go with an open mind, embrace the differences and make the most of every opportunity to try something new. There's a lot packed into two weeks, including some longer journeys, but the variety is what makes this trip so worthwhile. Be prepared for the heat, drink plenty of water and don't be afraid to try the local food (including the spiders!). Take time to appreciate the smaller experiences along the way, not just the famous sights. And make sure you have a camera ready!
