Travel agents can choose to join the
full 15-day Laos-Vietnam-Cambodia tour or just opt in for specific parts: four
days in Luang Prabang, eight days in Vietnam ,
or five days in Cambodia .
Prices for land arrangements start
from as little as USD 220 per person to join the Cambodia trip (twin sharing) rising
to USD1,225 to join the whole three-country itinerary (twin occupancy).
"We want agents to experience
the variety and charm of three wonderful destinations where Khiri has a
mountain of local expertise," said Willem Niemeijer, CEO of Khiri Travel.
The four-day Laos (Luang
Prabang) component starts on Saturday 28 September. The eight-day Vietnam part (Hanoi , Hoi An and HCMC) begins 1 October. The
five-day Cambodia module (Phnom Penh , Sambor Prei
Kuk, Siem Reap/Angkor) commences 8 October.
The trip is rich in local insights
and participation. Temple
visits, Buddhist ceremonies, meetings with ethnic tribes, fishing and cooking,
cyclo riding, a homestay visit, village bicycle rides, museum insights and
paddling a basket boat are just some of the highlights of the trip, which also
arranges for agents to dine on delicious local cuisines along the way.
The innovative Khiri familiarization
trip follows from the company's successful "Thai Heartland" trip
which it ran for agents in spring this year.
