You are invited to join me on an unforgettable trip to Vietnam and Cambodia!
Travel in Asia delivers exceptional art, culture and cuisine. With Ama Waterways, we will cruise elegantly along the Mekong river, transported back in time, where the rhythms of the countryside move at a slower pace and allow for a fascinating glimpse into a traditional way of life. Visit rural villages, colorful markets, ancient temples and a monastery, where you will receive a special Buddhist blessing by monks. Explore Cambodia’s history in the Royal Palace and National Museums of its beautiful capital, Phnom Penh. Witness skilled artisans who create exquisite handicrafts and fine delicacies, and be treated to authentic experiences, including rides via oxcart, tut tut and trishaw. Travel has the ability to transform us. Whether this is your first journey to Asia or you are a return visitor, traveling with like-minded people enriches our world-view. Vietnam and Cambodia bring a heightened sense of adventure!
2026 Dates:

Leading up to the trip, I will offer a schedule of educational presentations focusing on the art, religion, folklore and history of Vietnam and Cambodia, so when we arrive, you will be familiar with the culture.
