This, as usual was a fast track trip. Owing to the price hikes during new year and lack of proper planning (as usual), we decided to go from India -> Malaysia -> Cambodia -> Malaysia -> Indonesia -> Malaysia -> India. We skipped visiting Malaysia as we already covered it during our New Zealand trip.
The highlights of Cambodia were:
- Phnom Peng :
- Royal Palace
- Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum (Recommended to take a guided tour of it)
- Wat Phnom
- A private boat ride in the Mekong river.
- beautiful landscape during bus ride from phnom penh to siem reap.
- Siem Reap:
- Stay in Pub street (dirt cheap beer, extremely cheap massage centers)
- Half day cycle tour to Angkor Wat
- visit to the floating village Kompong Phluk
- icecream of the french chef
The highlights of Bali were:
- Pro Surf hostel at Kuta
- Right next to Kuta beach.
- Had pool where we learned how to do summersault
- Surfing lessons provided for extremely cheap price with guarantee that we will be able to stand of the surf, if not, next class free. (we failed and went for the next free class)
- Trek to Mount Batur, an active volcano. a
