Day 62 – Da Lat Da Lat is a city inland in Vietnam, and often overlooked on the tourist trail. Luckily we have the time to go there. We booked another bus to get there, but as it was last-minute, and we got the worst seats on the worst bus journey! But we make it…
Day 60 – Mui Ne and Back to the Beach Wow, day 60!! Can’t believe it. We make our way to Mui Ne as a last minute change of plan. We feel the need for beach ⛱️.
Day 57 – Ho Chi Minh City We booked a 10.30am minibus from Can Tho to Ho Chi Minh. It was a good trip. Looking forward to seeing the sights of this famous city – previously known as Saigon.
Day 50 – Kep and it’s Crabs Off to Kep this morning. A small sea-side town famous for its crab. Booked a tuk-tuk because the distance isn’t far. Didn’t count on the state of the road however!
Day 46 – Kampot Oasis Our usual start to moving on – jump on a tuk-tuk and head to the bus or train station. Our last view of Phnom Penh and a final ride over the Tonle Sap river. Our trusty Giant Ibis takes us 4 hours South to a little bit of heaven.
Day 44 – Flashpackers! Another bus, another day! A fond farewell to Seim Reap and onto a new adventure to Cambodia’s capital – Phnom Penh. This is a long un – 6 hours. But we enjoy them. Comfy with ‘sugary’ refreshments. Chance for Pete to work and me to ‘people watch’ through the countryside.
Day 34 – Kanchanaburi Setting off for Kanachaburi today. Very excited to see the town, museums, and of course the location of the Bridge Over the River Kwai. Reasonable start to the day – loads of banana pancakes!!! – then a minibus from Bangkok station for 3 hours.
Day 28 – Phuket – Mai Khao We spotted a local ‘bus’ the day before, to Mai Khao, which is a really quiet part of Phuket in the North. So we make our way to where we ‘think‘ it starts. We are in luck. Bundled in with the locals! Also ridiculously cheap.
Day 26 – Phuket Old Town & Private Tour Our last morning on Koh Phi Phi. After a relaxing breakfast we headed for the ferry to take us to Phuket. We don’t have to wade out to this one, but one hell of a step on and off..you need to be fit!
