In another weekly installment of Pemika’s adventures around Bangkok, she heads for cocktails on top of the world…
By: Nicole Long, Laos Country Director Most travelers appreciate a dip in the pool after a day of sightseeing. We have had guests in the past arrive to one of the quaint hotels located in the old town of Luang Prabang and were surprised to find there were not any pool facilities. The reason there are no pools located in the town center is because it is protected by UNESCO as a world heritage site […] View full post » By: Nicole Long- Laos Country Director Where: L’Estranger , Book and Tea Kingkitsarath Road.

The reason why is because Andrea was putting together an itinerary for someone and she said she wanted a “really nice hotel” and I asked her why she wasn’t including Journeys Within? I think sometimes we feel like we’re including the hotel just […] View full post » By: April Cole- US Director of Operations and Tours The Sokha Beach Resort is the best hotel option in Sihanoukville. I’ve heard a lot of great things about this hotel, but I personally didn’t love it. I didn’t hate it, but I didn’t love it. Let me explain: Sokha Beach Resort in Sihanoukville is a great location for people who want to end their Cambodia trip on the beach. It’s one of the only places […] View full post » By: April Cole- US Director of Operations and Tours My family and I recently took a little escape to the newly opened Song Saa Private Island Resort off the coast of Sihanoukville, Cambodia. To say we had a wonderful time would certainly be an understatement. Song Saa far exceeded our standards and expectations. Reflecting on our stay, I wanted to piece together how the luxury resort managed to exceed my high expectations. Being in the […] View full post » By: Andrea Ross Since opening in 2005, the Hotel de la Paix has been our go-to option for our more luxury-oriented travelers and for those looking for just a little treat. Located downtown in Siem Reap it offered not just luxurious accommodation, but a true sense of community and a wonderful trendy and modern feel…a pioneer in seeing Cambodia’s potential!

Located in the Banyan Tree Bangkok hotel, Vertigo and Moon-Bar is among the favourites in the city’s rooftop bar scene. Whether it is the helicopter park, the cosmo-chic feel or the open-air grill and bar that takes the cake — or in this case take the cocktail — Vertigo is one of the hot spots to take […] 
Long has Bangkok been hailed the land of the mouthwatering street foods. Backpackers and foodies alike wander the city’s labyrinth in search of the best cheap eats that the many street stalls have to offer.
