투어비 결제....

작년에 가려고 했던 투어...
5월에 출발 결정..(이놈의 환율...)
오늘 결제했당.~ 흐흐~

항공은 아시아나 마일리지로 했고...
local payment랑 밥값만 준비하면 되는군...
우잉~ 그 비용도 만만치는 않겠당...
출발전까지 환율이 내려가야할텐데.. 끙~

itinerary

 

Day 1 Bangkok

Thailand's cosmopolitan capital pulses with energy. Tap into the buzz at one of the city's many markets and shopping centres or by taking a tuk-tuk through the crowded streets. Otherwise, drop by the Ratchadamnoen Stadium for an electrifying Thai boxing match.

Days 2-4 Siem Reap/ Angkor Wat

The road to Cambodia leads to the former kingdom of the Khmers. Experience the extravagant beauty of the Angkor temples from dawn to dusk and learn the symbolism behind the exquisite bas-reliefs from a knowledgeable guide. These beautifully crumbling structures are sure to amaze.

Days 5-6 Phnom Penh

Recall the chilling events of Cambodia's past at S-21, the notorious Khmer concentration camp, and Choeung Ek, the site of the infamous Killing Fields. The Silver Pagoda and Royal Palace reveal a lighter side of history and the Russian Market is a good place to pick up a traditional krama.

Day 7 Chau Doc

Feel the wind whip past while travelling down the mighty Mekong in a speedboat and crossing into Vietnam along the way. Witness the floating houses of Chau Doc, watch fishermen ply their trade and maybe even explore the cave pagoda at Sam Mountain, where the best views of the region are to be had.

Days 8-9 Ho Chi Minh City

It's back to frenetic streets, overflowing markets and boisterous street vendors' calls in lively Ho Chi Minh City. Hunt for bargains in the bustling Ben Thanh Market or discover the French presence that lingers in the form of colonial buildings, great coffee and freshly baked baguettes all over the city.
