Escorted tour specialist Newmarket Holidays has launched a new tour to South East Asia that is exclusively for solo travellers. The 14-day long-haul adventure, The Heritage of Vietnam & Cambodia, is the sixth tour to be included in the operator's Exclusively Solos range, all of which feature a 10% discount for bookings made by 20 October 2023. 

The Heritage of Vietnam & Cambodia is a guided group trip that starts in captivating Hanoi, with guests exploring historic highlights that include the revered Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum, the serene Temple of Literature and the sobering Củ Chi tunnel complex, and taking part in activities that include starlit squid fishing, a sunrise tai chi session and cooking classes.

On day eight, the tour crosses to Cambodia to visit the capital Phnom Penh, the Mekong River and attractions that include remarkable Angkor Wat, the world's largest religious monument, and the enchanting vine-clad 'lost city' of Angkor Thom. To conclude the expedition, guests visit Kok Sangke to experience the community's traditions and skills.

Prices start from £4,135 per person, including accommodation, selected breakfasts, lunches and dinners, tours, transfers and return flights from Heathrow. There's also a wide range of optional activities that can be added to the experience. Departures from September 2024 to November 2025.

To celebrate the launch, Newmarket Holidays has introduced a 10% saving on all six Exclusively Solo tours booked by 20 October. As well as Vietnam and Cambodia, the wide range of options includes island-hopping off the Dalmatian Coast, the breathtaking landscapes of the Scottish Highlands, the cultural highlights of Sicily, the epic wilderness of Kenya and India's remarkable Golden Triangle.

Richard Forde, Head of Trade Sales says: "Heritage of Vietnam & Cambodia promises new learnings, flavours and experiences. The tour has been specially crafted so that guests engage with local communities, sample regional delicacies and delve into each country's enthralling past - it's a really exciting addition to our solo travel range.

"The popularity of independent travel continue to grow, so we're helping agents capitalise with a great discount on a range of tours that have thoughtfully balanced itineraries and the security of well-matched groups for travellers to share experiences of a lifetime with.”

As well as six tours that are exclusively for solo travellers, Newmarket Holidays has also removed single supplements from more than 20 classic tours in the UK, Europe and worldwide.
