Is it possible to end the trip in Siam Reip and fly back to Bangkok?

Just to clarify, this trip officially ends in Ho Chi Minh City. You will be visiting Siem Reap on Day 4 of the itinerary, but the tour continues beyond that point. When you mention ending the trip in Siem Reap and flying back to Bangkok, do you mean that you're considering leaving the tour early at that stage?

Is there an option for upgrade in hotel accomodations? If so, what are the options? I was looking for a four star or five star option.

This trip follows our Original style, which includes mostly 2 to 3-star hotels. Facilities are basic, and while rooms have private bathrooms and are usually air-conditioned or fan-cooled. Upgrades to 4 or 5 star hotels are not possible on this trip. We use this style to give you a more local and authentic experience, focusing on culture rather than luxury.

Could you please confirm if this is a guaranteed departure for July 30, 2024? Additionally, could you clarify the ending city?

Our 30JUL2024 departure is a confirmed departure. However, it is no longer open for sale as it is too close to travel. Our ending point will be Ho Chi Minh City on Day 8. We are pleased to offer a complimentary hold on the trip for 48 hours, after which a deposit of 400 is required to confirm your space.

how wheelchair friendly are the bathrooms during the tour? I am planning to travel in August.

There are some long travel days by private and public transport (up to 10 hours on the road) on the border crossing days. These are relatively comfortable vehicles with air conditioning, designated seats and luggage compartments.

Does it actually include a homestay?

Most of the accommodation on this trip is in hotels (mostly 2 to 3-star). Facilities are often basic, with some properties not having a continuous supply of hot water on occasion. All rooms are either fan cooled or with air conditioning and twin share with private facilities unless stated otherwise in the daily itinerary. Double beds are not widely available in South East Asia.

Is the December 25 start date available for 2

Currently there are 7 spaces available for the trip Cambodia Express departing on 25 December 2023

I wondered if there are any more tours, or tours similar to this being offered in early August?

Our Cambodian Traveller tour has 10 departures in August. Tours leave roughly every 3 days and cost from 760GBP.

Do I need to pay an extra accommodation fee for one person?

This price is based on a twin share accommodation. So you would share a room with another person on this tour. In case you want a private room we would add a single supplement to your booking. For this tour single supplement is available for an extra cost.

What is the average age on this tour?

The general age range is 25-49. However Intrepid's appeal is diverse, which is why its all about your shared attitude, not age.

How do I get the Vietnam Visa since the group enters the country by bus and doesn't arrive to the airport?

You will need to contact your local Vietnamese Embassy to arrange the visa in advance. For most passports it is required to have a Visa in advance and you cannot purchase on arrival at the border. This will depend on your passport though, so please contact your local Vietnamese embassy to confirm.

As a die-hard independent traveler, I was skeptical about joining an organized group tour -- but Intrepid's Cambodia Express delivered way more than I expected and made a convert out of me. I loved our guide and the group, and the itinerary was a perfect balance between scheduled sites and free time. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!Show more

Reply from: Intrepid Travel
Thanks so much for the kind words, Joel! We know joining a group tour can be a big shift for die-hard independent travellers, so we're thrilled to hear that our Cambodia Express trip made a convert out of you. There's something pretty special about exploring a place like Cambodia with a great crew by your side, so we're so glad you connected with your guide and fellow travellers and found that shared experience added to the journey. It’s also great to hear the itinerary struck the right balance between planned activities and time to explore on your own (we know how important it is to have that flexibility, especially for newly converted independent travellers!). Thank you again for your lovely review, we hope to welcome you on another Intrepid adventure in future!
