Sisters in Saigon
Unveiling the Hidden Gems of Vietnam & Cambodia
November 2 – 16, 2024
Ladies, it’s time to embark on an extraordinary adventure tailored exclusively for women through the cultural gems of Vietnam and Cambodia. Picture yourself immersed in the vibrant streets of Hanoi, paying homage at the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, and indulging in a ‘Cyclo Tour’ through the lively Old Quarter. Sail on a luxurious cruise through the breathtaking Lan Ha Bay, where emerald waters cradle ancient secrets, and each limestone islet tells a story. Hoi An beckons with its lantern-lit streets and UNESCO World Heritage charm. Engage in a lantern-making workshop, shop for exquisite silk, and become part of the local tapestry with a “Farming & Fishing” tour, cycling through narrow roads and joining fishermen on the river. Journey to the historic city of Hue, where royalty meets romance. In Ho Chi Minh City, our journey through history takes us to the compelling remnants of the Vietnam War. Explore the Reunification Palace, the War Remnants Museum, and venture into the intricate network of Cu Chi Tunnels—an underground testament to the resilience and ingenuity that defined a crucial chapter in Vietnam’s past. In Cambodia our adventure continues with architectural masterpieces of the Angkor Wat Complex and the jungle-covered wonders of Ta Prohm Temple to off-the-beaten-path explorations in the countryside. Engage with locals in remote villages and share laughter and camaraderie with fellow travellers as we uncover the hidden gems through captivating Vietnam and Cambodia.
