Multi Country Tours, South East Asia Overview

A tour of Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam and Myanmar, starting and ending in Bangkok.

This trip makes a circuit of South East Asia, visiting Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam and Myanmar, starting and ending in Bangkok.

Join Earthbound Expeditions on this tour of the highlights of Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam and Myanmar. It combines World Heritage Sites, natural landmarks, small villages and some of the best shopping in the world in one trip, along with the local food and drink.

You see the natural beauty of Ha Long Bay and the Mekong Delta (Vietnam), the mountains of Laos, the floating farms and villages of Inle Lake (Myanmar) and long stretches of beach. You visit the ancient temple sites of Angkor Wat (the largest temple in the world) and Bagan (with over 3,100 temples and stupas in one place).

You have time to relax in Luang Prabang (Laos), where you can watch the monks collecting alms, and in Hoi An (Vietnam), where we recommend trying the local coffee and tea. You visit many temples decorated in gold, shop at the night markets in Luang Prabang (Laos) and Siem Reap (Cambodia), and experience modern Asia in Saigon, Hanoi and Bangkok.

If you plan to shop a lot, bring an extra suitcase for the garment district of Bangkok and the shopping districts of Hanoi and Saigon.

At every stop you can enjoy the local cuisine and plenty of fresh fruit. We especially recommend Chon coffee in Vietnam and the local teas across South East Asia.

After a long day of touring, you can book a spa treatment. South East Asia is known for its massage and Ayurvedic spa treatments.

This trip offers a broad introduction to the region in a single journey.

A Journey to the Pinnacle of Spirituality.

June 2026, Tripadvisor

Our Kailash Manasarovar Yatra with Earthbound Expeditions was an unforgettable and deeply spiritual experience. The entire trip was organized with great care and professionalism, making a challenging pilgrimage feel smooth and well supported. One aspect we particularly appreciated was the food. As we requested no onion and no garlic meals, the team went out of their way to accommodate our dietary preferences throughout the journey. The food was wholesome, delicious, and thoughtfully prepared, which was especially important during the demanding days at high altitude. The support staff were exceptional. They were attentive, kind, and always ready to help with any request, no matter how small. Their genuine concern for the comfort and well-being of every pilgrim made us feel cared for throughout the journey. From daily logistics to individual needs, the team handled everything efficiently and with a smile. The guides and staff also ensured that everyone was supported during the high-altitude portions of the trip, providing encouragement and assistance whenever needed. Their dedication allowed us to focus on the spiritual significance of the yatra and fully immerse ourselves in the experience. We are sincerely grateful to Earthbound Expeditions for making this sacred pilgrimage so memorable. We highly recommend them to anyone planning a Kailash Manasarovar Yatra and looking for a reliable, caring, and well organized team.

Best & safest guides to Mt. Kailash - Earthbound Expeditions

June 2026, Tripadvisor

A high altitude spiritual & transformational journey to Kailash Manasarovar Parikrama involves serious preparation, acclamatization to altitudes, proper safety gear, experienced guides, great & nutritious food, careful travel execution etc. Team Earthbound Expeditions, led by Sri. Rajan Simkhada excelled at this by carefully curating a travel plan that included adequate acclamatization and visits to several holy places. The staff took personal attention to each and every one of our team to ensure people were healthy, well fed, cared for and equipped to do one of the most difficult, but, spiritually enriching Yatra to Kailash & Manasarovar. The personal care taken by the staff felt like they were all Shiva Ganas, protecting us throughout our journey. There are no superlatives to explain the high quality of service. A lot of gratitude and thanks to Earthbound for making our trip the most memorable one, yet. If you are drawn to make a Kailash Manasarovar Yatra, there is NO ONE BETTER than Earthbound Expeditions!
