(EMAILWIRE.COM, November 05, 2009 ) Bozeman, MT— AdventureWomen, Inc., the oldest worldwide adventure travel company for active women over 30, is offering a new cultural and humanitarian adventure that takes women travelers to Vietnam with the option of an extended trip to Cambodia.
From the tribal villages of Sapa in the North, to modern Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) in the South of Vietnam, this active adventure to a previously tumultuous landscape will give visitors the opportunity to see a beautiful country at peace while lending a helping hand. Throughout this journey, visitors will call on many NGOs (non-government organizations) to meet and talk with people who are working to ease the hardships of the Vietnamese people in rural areas of the country. As a group, guests will participate in humanitarian acts like donating a water buffalo to a local farming family, so they will be better able to increase the yields in their rice fields, and donating a sampan to a young couple in the Mekong Delta, so they can get their produce to market.
Other highlights include a cyclo-tour that takes visitors through the French colonial architecture of Hanoi; taking the overnight train to Sapa to hiking and interacting with various ethnic peoples and learn about their distinctive crafts; visiting emerald-colored, terraced rice fields in the serene countryside; boating the Perfume River in Hue and the Mekong Delta; taking a walking tour of the narrow cobblestone streets of Hoi An; and visiting the Cu Chi Tunnels to learn about the “American War” (as the Vietnamese refer to it).
At the conclusion of this trip, guests will have an opportunity to continue their adventure with a 4-day/3-night optional extension to the amazing Buddhist temple complex of Angkor Wat in Cambodia, and the surrounding countryside. Dates for 2010: October 11 – 24, 2010 (Vietnam), October 24 – 27, 2010 (Cambodia Extension).
