Indochina series group, 15 days

A series is the same programme sold many times. What the tour operator buys from us is not one trip but a season: a set of departure dates, hotel rooms held for each date, boat cabins blocked, a coach plan and a pool of guides who know the programme. The group on each date changes; the operation should not.

That shapes every choice in the itinerary below. There is a second Hanoi night after the boat so that a weather cancellation on the bay never collides with a flight. Hoi An gets three nights because a free day there absorbs delays from the Hue road. Siem Reap has three nights so that a late-arriving regional flight costs the group an evening, not a temple day.

Allotment terms — how many rooms are held per date, and when unsold rooms are released back to the hotel — are agreed in the agency contract for each season. So is the free-place policy for the tour leader. Neither is set on this page.

Group flights

Group fares for Hanoi–Hue, Da Nang–Saigon and Saigon–Siem Reap come with their own name-change and deposit rules, set by the airline, not by us. We show them as a separate block so that you can see when the fare moves without the land rate moving.

Single rooms

Series groups often run at a higher single-room ratio than FIT. We quote a supplement per room; the number of single rooms the allotment can absorb per date is part of the season agreement.

Guide continuity

Each city has its own local guide. On request we quote a national guide who travels with the group from Hanoi to Saigon; that adds the guide's flights and hotel nights but gives the group one person who knows them by name. The Cambodian sector always uses a Cambodian guide.

Tet and peak weeks

Lunar New Year 2027 falls in early February. Hotel minimum stays, gala dinners at Christmas and New Year, and limited guide availability make those departures a separate price, not a supplement.
