This is the account of our trip to Cambodia and Vietnam in Oct/Nov of 2018. We spent 5 days in Siem Reap, 3 of those visiting temples and the other 2 cruising around town. Then 7 days on a barge from Siem Reap to Ho Chi Minh City via various waterways. Then 3 days in Ho Chi Minh City. Followed by 3 days in Hanoi with 2 days in Halong Bay in the middle (for a total of 5).
The map below gives has a rough outline of our path.
