Customize your trip

With our True Choice Program, you can choose to stay longer before or after your trip on your own, or combine two adventures to maximize your value. Here are more ways to create the OAT adventure that’s right for you:

  • Choose our standard air routing, or work with us to select the airline and routing you prefer
  • Make your own international flight arrangements directly with the airline, applying frequent flyer miles if available
  • Stay overnight in a connecting city before or after your trip
  • Request to arrive a few days early to get a fresh start on your adventure
  • Choose to “break away” before or after your trip, spending additional days or weeks on your own
  • Extend your adventure with our optional pre- and post-trip extensions
  • Combine your choice of OAT adventures to maximize your value
  • Upgrade to business or premium economy class

The air options listed above will involve an additional fee of $100 per person for confirmed requests (as well as incremental airfare costs based on your specific choice). This service fee will be waived for Inner Circle/Sir Edmund Hillary Club members.

Or, when you make your reservation, you can choose our standard air routing, for which approximate travel times are shown below.

Laos 2011

Before your Inside Vietnam adventure, discover another Indochinese gem in Laos, once known as the “land of a million elephants.” We begin in Vientiane—built as the country’s capital in the twelfth century—now a slow-paced, friendly city that boasts ancient treasures like Wat Sisaket, with its 6,840 statues of the Buddha. Then we continue to charming Luang Prabang. Set in spectacularly lush scenery, the city is famous for the more than 30 active temples and hundreds of architectural treasures that have earned it a place on the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. You’ll notice the many 19th-century French colonial villas mixed in with the more traditional Lao-style homes as we mingle with locals, participate in an alms-giving ceremony with Buddhist monks, and savor another side of Southeast Asia.

Single Supplement: FREE.

Please note: Availability and price may vary by departure date. Please call for details.

4 nights from only $995

Single Supplement: FREE.

Please note: This extension only available on select departures. Ask your Adventure Specialist for details.
