The French called their Asian colonies Indochina, but today we call them Laos, Cambodia, and Vietnam. With a rich, diverse cultural inheritance from India, Thailand, and China, ancient imperial histories, a mixture of Hindu and Buddhist religions, and the romantic remnants of French colonial architecture—Indochina is the perfect setting for a new OAT adventure.
On this in-depth 19-day journey, we delve into the distant past. You’ll explore the UNESCO World Heritage Sites of Luang Prabang and Angkor Wat ... discover the Lost Kingdoms of the Khmer, the Lao, and the Vietnamese ... tour some of the region’s most impressive temples and palaces. Along the way, you’ll meet local residents in their villages and schools; uncover traditional crafts like silk weaving and paper making; taste the ginger and fish sauces of regional cuisines; and discover some of Southeast Asia’s most remote locales. It’s an adventure like no other. Join us!
