Spotlight: Southeast Asia

The procession of marigold-hued robed monks at sunrise for an alms-giving ceremony … the exchange of dragon fruit and durian in a bustling floating market … the heat from a lemongrass-laced coconut soup balanced with a green papaya salad. Welcome to Southeast Asia.

You can sail Vietnam’s Halong Bay via traditional Junk through emerald water and towering limestone cliffs, sleep under a canopy of stars in northern Thailand’s lush tropical jungle, and explore natural wonders from tiered rice terraces to pristine white sand beaches.
 
Southeast Asia is full of extreme contrasts, from bustling Bangkok’s golden temples and Saigon’s French colonial architecture to Siem Reap’s ancient temple complexes and Hue’s pagodas and mausoleums. Explore the perfectly symmetrical Angkor Wat temple, Ta Prohm intertwined with jungle, and the hundreds of carved faces on the façade of Bayon temple.
 
Let TS show you the classic sites and take you off the beaten path to locales yet to be discovered in this special region.
