Vietnam and Cambodia are tropical countries, meaning it can often be very hot and humid. It’s also not uncommon to experience heavy rains in certain seasons.

As the Camp Vietnam and Cambodia Combo has a very active itinerary, we suggest bringing a pair of sturdy shoes and a few changes of all-weather clothes that will be suitable in humid climates.

We will be sending a full packing list to everyone a couple of months before departure with a much more detailed list of what we think are the essentials.
