What people love about Far East Tours
- Bangkok to Singapore: Jungle Hikes & Island Nights
I had a fantastic time on this trip. As others have mentioned, you could probably do the same trip for cheaper by yourself. However, as a first time traveller, having everything organised for you and all transport sorted was great. It removed all the stress from travelling and was worth the extra money. My tour guide Amy was outstanding. She gave everyone the freedom to either eat and hang out as a group or do our own thing. We always ate at cheap restaurants which was great as it saved money for activities. I'd recommend this for anyone travelling for the first time. After you can always travel by yourself and explore more.
- Bangkok to Singapore: Jungle Hikes & Island Nights
Absolutely loved this trip and would definitely recommend it to anybody who likes travelling to a few different places! Our tour guide took us to the best spots to eat and see things in each location and was very knowledgable. So easy to not worry about accomodation or transport. Will definitely travel with G Adventures again!
- Bangkok to Singapore: Jungle Hikes & Island Nights
The trip was everything I hoped for plus more. Half the places we went to I had never heard of before but was pleasantly surprised when we got there, and not once was there a boring time or place. Transport was good, tour guide was great and the countries were fantastic. What I liked the most about the trip was the diverse settings of each stop, with them all being unique to each other.

See all Hiking & Trekking toursOur most popular active tours across Southeast Asia run between 18 and 24 days, giving you a proper mix of cycling through villages, kayaking near Halong Bay's limestone cliffs and exploring temples on foot. Travelers really enjoy starting their mornings with surf lessons at Red Island before heading out to meet local fishing communities. The family homestays in rural Cambodia and Vietnam are consistently rated as trip highlights - you'll eat with local families and learn how they've farmed their land for generations. We've worked in some unique experiences like rides on the bamboo train in Battambang and hands-on cooking classes in Hoi An where you'll pick herbs straight from local gardens. The Mekong Delta sections are carefully mapped out with bicycle routes past fruit orchards, stops at floating markets and nights in traditional houses built on stilts. Our customers appreciate having free time to wander through Luang Prabang's night markets or take optional trips to nearby waterfalls. For those interested in wildlife, the elephant sanctuary visits near Mandalao let you walk alongside rescued elephants in their natural environment - no riding or unethical practices involved. Water activities are a big part too, from snorkeling the clear waters of Ang Thong Marine Park to exploring Bangkok's quiet canals by longtail boat. We keep groups small, usually 8-12 people, which our travelers say creates just the right balance between making new friends and getting personal attention from the guides.
See all Active toursOur bike tours through Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand run 12-21 days with gentle daily rides of 30-50km on flat ground. The Mekong Delta's back roads are perfect for cycling - you'll pass rice fields, fruit farms and pop into local workshops and homes along the way. Some routes take you around Angkor's temples and through the villages near Battambang. The support vans follow along and our local teams make sure everyone's comfortable; you just need basic fitness to join in. There's always time to stop for fresh coconuts and local treats. Our cyclists often say their favorite moments are riding across bamboo bridges and through fishing villages, where locals give them a friendly wave you'd miss in a regular tour bus.

Looking at the feedback from our travelers, Intrepid comes out really strong with their cycling tours. Their guide Is Prapassorn gets special mentions - people appreciate how she takes care of everyone and shares deep local knowledge along the way. Bravo Indochina Tours hits the mark too, particularly when it comes to taking care of the details. Their guide Toni stands out for going above and beyond what travelers expect. The whole team seems focused on making sure everything runs smoothly. Hoi An Express offers a mixed picture. While many travelers praise their knowledgeable guides and like the hotels they use, there are some wrinkles to note. A few customers ran into problems with the bus service, and some found the daily plans weren't as clear as they could be. Between these three, each has its strengths. If you're keen on cycling, Intrepid looks solid. For attentive service and careful planning, Bravo Indochina delivers well. Hoi An Express has good bones with their guides and accommodations, though you might want to double-check the transport and daily schedule details before booking.

"My rating exceeds my expectations! The trip was exceptionally good and above all, thanks to the excellent tour guide Chit Kaumg Htut. He constantly went out of his way to make sure we were all very comfortable. He is the perfect tour guide. I have experienced many, but never as excellent as Chit!

"The only thing that saved me from this trip is the guide, great attitude of the guide and always wanting to help. The itinerary is not good, the hike seems like it is for 8 year old children, 3 hours one day and 4 hours the next. I think in Ching Mai there are more things to do than what they simply propose. And please, charge 10 dollars more and include all transportation.

"The trip was well organised and covered all the highlights. As the trip starts every day, I was often travelling alone. Friends were also travelling the north-south route in Vietnam. It would have helped me to know the travel planning details 2-3 days in advance, such as when and how to fly, in order to meet up with them. Danny made the start in Hanoi easier for me and was very supportive in the event of a loss. The guides were very different, both in terms of language and knowledge. I myself have been organising and guiding tours for 12 years. I always find it important that the guide approaches the respective group with information, whether it is to talk briefly about the upcoming tour and not just answer questions. Questions presuppose that the respective customer has prepared themselves, i.e. already has some knowledge. But only a few do that. The guides did not always speak good English. At the Marble Mountains, for example, I would have appreciated a tip about the cave. Really beautiful, but with the wrong shoes an adventure that I do not want to repeat. At the end of the trip in Saigon I had a tour guide, nickname Tintin, who looked after the group wonderful, informed them directly about the tour program, had a lot of knowledge, which he passed on proactively and was easy to understand in English. That's why he deserves a mention here. In summary, a great trip with a very good organisation - which I am happy to recommend

Small Group
2,828 tours in Far EastKeeping groups small at 8-12 people really transforms these Southeast Asian journeys. Our customers often tell us how they formed real connections with their guides and fellow travelers while exploring Chiang Mai's old quarter, Luang Prabang's temples and also rural villages. You'll float down the Mekong, cool off in Laos' clear pools and cycle through countryside paths. The morning alms ceremony in Luang Prabang takes on new meaning in an intimate group, and travelers regularly praise how their guides added cultural context that made experiences like hill tribe visits near Chiang Mai come to life.
Private / Personalized
1,767 tours in Far EastPrivate tours spanning Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand run 10-14 days and put you in control. Your dedicated guide adjusts the pace to match your interests - perhaps spending extra dawn moments at Angkor Wat or taking time to wander Hoi An's historic lanes. Having private transport means stopping whenever something catches your eye, and our travelers particularly value this flexibility to shape their days. Many mention how special it felt having their guide's full attention while exploring Halong Bay's caves, biking through Hoi An's rice fields and also discovering Bangkok's lesser-known temples.

Our 10-day Southeast Asian tours blend guided experiences with plenty of personal time to wander. Starting from Vietnam or Thailand, you'll wind through Cambodia's ancient sites and Laos' peaceful riverside spots. The overnight stay on Halong Bay really sets this trip apart - imagine doing Tai Chi on deck as the sun rises over limestone islands. You'll get to cycle past rice fields in Hoi An and learn proper noodle-making techniques from local families. We position you perfectly for sunrise at Angkor's temples, where our guides know exactly which spots offer the clearest views. The boat rides through the Mekong Delta are a favorite among our guests, especially when they visit small islands, meet local families and try their hand at making traditional coconut candy.

Demographics
The 25-31 day Southeast Asian journeys hit the sweet spot for young adult travelers, mixing guided activities with plenty of independent exploration time. You'll get nights out in Bangkok's buzzing streets, lazy days on Cambodia's Koh Rong beaches and food adventures through Hanoi's Old Quarter. Our travelers often tell us they love meeting people at the hostels and backpacker spots - whether swimming in Kuang Si's blue pools or catching sunrise at Angkor Wat. The itinerary keeps things moving nicely - one day you're learning to make noodles in Hoi An and the next you're checking out massive caves in Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park.
Our 10-21 day itineraries really work for senior travelers, balancing cultural experiences with a comfortable pace. The morning alms in Luang Prabang, Mekong Delta floating markets and quiet Angkor temples away from crowds are consistently popular stops. The hotels are just right - clean, central and well-equipped. Our experienced local guides make a big difference, sharing deep historical knowledge at places like Hanoi's Temple of Literature and helping navigate local customs too. Small groups of 8-12 people mean you can have good conversations and also get to know your fellow travelers properly.
Our Southeast Asian trips running 18-25 days work really well for families wanting to dive into local culture. Kids get excited about hands-on activities like making rice paper in Mekong Delta villages and learning about elephant care near Chiang Mai. The Halong Bay overnight cruise is usually a family favorite - you can kayak through limestone caves and try catching squid right off the boat deck. Our guides know how to adjust the pace for different ages, whether you're cycling through Hoi An's rice fields or exploring the Cu Chi Tunnels outside Ho Chi Minh City. Staying with local families in rural villages gives everyone a chance to connect with local kids and share authentic home-cooked meals.
