    Why This Is the Perfect Route for Solo Travelers

    New friends, same journey – Legend Travel Group magicNew friends, same journey – Legend Travel Group magic (Source: Internet)

    Traveling alone from Vietnam to Cambodia (or vice-versa) is one of the most rewarding solo adventures in Southeast Asia. You’ll cruise the mighty Mekong, explore the temples of Angkor at sunrise, wander Hanoi’s old quarter, and float through Halong Bay – all while making instant friends on small-group tours designed especially for solo travelers.

    Legend Travel Group has perfected this route: every departure is guaranteed for solo joiners, you’ll share rooms with same-gender travelers (no single supplement on most dates), and our famous “deposit only 10% – pay the balance 30 days before departurepolicy keeps everything stress-free.

    • Greet with a smile and “xin chào” (Vietnam) or “sua sdei” (Cambodia)

    • Remove shoes before entering homes or certain temple buildings

    • Ask before photographing monks or locals

    • Tipping $1–$2 per day to guides is appreciated but never expected
