Carbon Neutral Trip

We've spent decades wandering these two countries for one simple reason: here, every step reveals a captivating story. We start by strolling through Cambodia’s jungle-cloaked temples, then hop to Vietnam’s energetic markets, take in Hoi An's colourful lanes, then cross beneath the majestic Hải Vân Pass en route to Hue’s Imperial City. And we finish aboard a Perfume River cruise, where our local friends have cooked up something special.

Historic Sites
Witness ancient landscapes and architectural marvels—from the jungle floors of Cambodia to the walls near Angkor Wat.

Insider Access
The people of Vietnam remain as warm, friendly, and just as eager to share their culture as they were when we first set foot in the country over two decades ago.

Authentic Food
Learn local culinary secrets at a hands-on cooking class, then savor the delicious creations you've made.

The Vietnamese like to eat fast, walk slow and laugh at everything.

I travel for people. To learn, love and listen. My mentor—the fabulous Vietnamese guide, father, husband, philanthropist and friend, Anh—once said to me, "The Vietnamese like to eat fast, walk slow and laugh at everything.’ This simple phrase says much and has many layers behind it.
