Thailand, Laos & Vietnam – Unexplored the far north
A superb voyage through some of South East Asia’s most remote but spectacular regions; beginning in Thailand’s Golden Triangle travel by road and by river through the dramatic mountains and jungles of Northern Lao and Vietnam, inhabited by myriad traditional hill-tribe peoples, to the old French Hill station of Sapa and on by train to our final destination, Hanoi.
