How much time is spent on the various bus trips? Is the overnight train sit up or sleeping berth? If berths we would want a cabin for 2. Could the train be replaced with a flight?

The tour includes several overland travel days, with bus journeys ranging from around 3 to 8 hours depending on the day. There are also two overnight trains (Ninh Binh → Hue and Quy Nhon → Ho Chi Minh City), each with soft-sleeper berths. Cabins are shared 4-berth compartments, and unfortunately private 2-berth cabins cannot be booked. The overnight trains are part of the set itinerary, so replacing them with flights isn't possible through the tour.

Does this tour have guaranteed departure?

Yes, the 15JAN-05FEB 2023 departure of Epic Vietnam to Cambodia is guaranteed, as there are already six people confirmed on this departure.

I booked and paid for an Intrepid tour for two of Vietnam. The tour was Feb 2020 and the Covid pandemic was just starting to blossom. The writing was on the wall with Covid but they would not cancel the trip and despite numerous attempts by myself and my agent they would not even consider any kind of compensation, even “in kind” credit for the future. I cancelled and took a full loss. There was never ever even a response from them. Not long thereafter they stopped tour, but not until they had to. The are rude, self serving and inconsiderate of your safety. Intrepid is all about Intrepid, not about you the client.Show more
