I had a 4-week
Indochina trip in May-June 2007.
(Melbourne – Bangkok – Thailand – Laos -
Vietnam - Cambodia -Thailand – Bangkok - Melbourne)
After 6 nights in Thailand on my IntrepidTravel tour we
crossed the Mekong River from Chiang Khong in Thailand into Laos.
After 7 nights in Laos we entered Vietnam.
We spent 11 nights in Vietnam and 5 nights in Cambodia before returning to Bangkok.
Of the 4 countries on this trip the Lao people were
the friendliest.
