Northern Laos especially presents many great trekking opportunities. Not only is the terrain very mountainous and largely swathed in forest, it is also home to a dazzling array of highly colourful minority tribal people who still pursue the traditional slash and burn (swidden) farming methods, unchanged for a thousand years.

In a country that still has little infrastructure except in the main collecting points of Siem Reap, Phnom Penh and Sihanoukville, there can be no better way to explore the Jungle Temples than by taking your own accommodation along with you... in style!

Mountain bikes are the perfect way to discover the wild spirit of untamed North Thailand, a region of jungle filled valleys, mountain-top temples, meandering rivers, and cultural encounters.

A deluxe, live on board cruise across South East Asia's largest freshwater lake, the Tonle Sap, is an ideal way to explore hidden parts of Cambodia at a deliciously relaxed pace while travelling between the must-see destinations of Angkor Wat and Phnom Penh.
