Vietnam and Cambodia are the most natural two-country combination in Indochina: Vietnam gives you a fast-changing timeline from imperial cities to modern street life, while Cambodia slows everything down with Angkor’s sacred scale and Mekong riverside culture. Our Vietnam Cambodia Tours for 2026/2027 are built around smooth logistics between the two countries, realistic travel days, and guided context so you understand what you are seeing, not just “tick boxes.”
When Is the Best Time to Travel to Vietnam and Cambodia?
For overall comfort, the most reliable window is typically November to February, when conditions are generally cooler and drier across much of Vietnam and Cambodia, making multi-day touring easier. That said, a good itinerary still depends on your priorities:
- If you want clearer hiking conditions in the north (Sapa, rice terrace areas), cooler months are usually more comfortable for walking.
- If you prefer greener scenery and fewer crowds, the “shoulder” periods around the main dry season can be a smart trade-off, as long as you accept occasional rain and build a flexible schedule.

What Experiences Can You Expect on a Vietnam Cambodia Itinerary?
A well-designed Vietnam Cambodia tour is built around three layers: iconic landmarks, everyday local life, and travel rhythm that stays comfortable. In practical terms, that usually means:
- Heritage highlights that are worth the travel time
- Halong Bay, famous for limestone karsts rising from the Gulf of Tonkin.
- Hoi An Ancient Town, a well-preserved trading port cityscape.
- Angkor Wat, one of Southeast Asia’s most important archaeological sites, spread across a vast park area.
- River culture and “real life” moments
- Mekong Delta days that focus on water-based life and markets in southern Vietnam.
- Phnom Penh riverside energy and French-influenced urban layers (best understood with a strong guide rather than rushing through).
- A pace that doesn’t exhaust you
- Logical sequencing (Northern to Southern Vietnam, then Cambodia).
- Buffer time for heat, walking effort, and travel days, especially around Angkor temple touring.
