Here you‘ll find everything you’ll need to know before taking a trip to the cultural and culinary heart of south-east Asia. Soak up the charming atmosphere of Luang Prabang.

What is Indochina?
Indochina refers to three countries, Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. This trio’s cultural and historical connections are centuries-old, but have more recently been rooted in French colonialism.
Can you visit all three countries on one trip?
If you have three weeks to spare, it would certainly be possible to see the highlights of all three countries. One big bonus about Indochina is that it is easy to get around, with numerous flight options should the journey by road be too difficult.
