Review on Asian Adventure
8 Aug 2011 Explorer1273838 asked
I am 27 F traveling solo. I am flexible on my exact travel date but I am thinking of doing the Asian Adventure around the first of December. Is anyone going around that time?
Also, if anyone has already gone can you please provide me with some feedback on your review of the trip?
Thanks.

I did this tour in January (great month to go in terms of weather) 2010 and couldn’t recommend it highly enough.
There’s no sorts of tips or anything I can give you before leaving so as Ryan says it’s probably best for you to ask specific questions.

Alec, for the optionals. I would suggest doing them all. Also you can do hot air balloning in Vang Vieng.

Hi, i did the big indochina just last month and it was amazing! the first half of the trip was the asian adventure, and to be honest, that was my favourite part of the trip. here is a blog from these forums: http://contiki.co.nz/community/discussions/13977-asian-adventure-review-part-1
im sure part 2 is around somewhere as i read it before i went. also, here is a blog from the trip i went on. Its for the whole trip, so vietnam included, but the asian adventure is at the start:

optionals: do them all!!!! its so cheap, that even if you aren’t that keen on the idea of them, its not a huge loss to you anyway.- 0 people like this

Thanks guys, I was intending to do them all but I thought i’d ask just incase there was one that was a big waste of time. Cheers.

Hey guys, I’m going on this trip in February 2012 with my boyfriend. I’ve done Contiki before solo and know how the rooming in Europe goes, just wondering what it’s like in Asia? Obviously we would love to have our own room but we know that some times you just have to share. I was wondering just how often you have shared accommodations?

you will get a room of your own every night except one when you are on the overnight train from Bangkok to Chiang Mai and everyone is in the same cabin.
