bonjour,
Je pars au Cambodge tout juillet et apres avoir lu pas mal de mises en garde sur le pbl des mines au Cambodge, j'aimerai avoir l'avis de "connaisseurs"...Je compte aller de Siam Reap à PP, puis descendre jusqu'à Sianoukhville....Et forcémment, je vais me ballader dans la nature....alors est-ce dangereux? comment circuler dans le pays en évitant les mines? suis-je ridicule d'avoir peur?
Merci pour vos réponses...
minimaliste?Tout de meme.
Personellement c'est vrai que je n'en ai jamais vu pendant mon voyage au Cambodge, mais je me souviens quand je bossais chez handicap international a Lyon, avoir vu des photos accroches au mur avec des mines dans les jardins de maisons, et avoir entendu des expat envoyes sur le terrain que c'etait quand meme incroyablement infeste. Mais bon en restant dans les circuits touristiques c'est sur que ton bus ne vas pas sauter sur une mine entre PP et Sihanookville 😉
Qu'on le veuille ou non, les mines anti personnelles demeurent un problème majeur au Cambodge, sinon comment expliquer que 840 personnes en 2007, ait été tuées ou mutilées par ces engins ? (la moitié sont des enfants. Lire le rapport de l'UNICEF).
Il ne faut pas compter sur l'érosion de ces engins pour qu'elle deviennent inopérantes. Je vous recommande de visionner le documentaire très édifiant : "Les joints de mines sont plus étanches ques les chambres à air de nos vélos".
Le problème réside dans la difficulté d'accès de certaines zones infestées, dans le manque de moyens aussi ainsi que le danger que cela représente. Le pire est l'action de l'eau. Kampuchea signifie"Pays de l'eau" et, selon les saisons, le courant de l'eau déplace les mines pour les déposer là où le terrain a été déminé, donc sécurisé, en principe.
Si vous voulez vous promener, restez sur les routes, les pistes ou chemins parfaitement dégagés, sans végétation. Ne vous aventurez pas dans les sous-bois ou forêts même sur des petits sentiers tracés par le passage de personnes. Ne marchez pas dans les ruisseaux ! En respectant ces principes, vous ne risquez rien.
Contrairement à ce que j'ai lu dans une réponse, les mines, et c'est bien là le drame, ne sont pas seulement dans les terrains balisés ou à proximité des pancartes à tête de mort.
Bien sur ta question n'est pas idiote, Et si dans les endroits touristiques il n'y a plus de danger réel, il faut rester prudent dés que l'on en sort....Par exemple entre KC et stung teng, j'ai vu des demineurs dans des champs de bord de route ...la conclusion est aisée!
La responsabilité serait trop grande de dresser une carte des zones plus particulièrement concernées, mais tu trouveras des éléments de réponses dans des messages précédents...Sur tes projets: pas de problème...
Mines : le nombre d’accidents diminue toujours au Cambodge 23-05-2008 Le Cambodia Mine/UXO victim information system (CMVIS) a rendu son rapport mensuel sur les accidents dus aux mines antipersonnel et autres engins explosifs. En avril 2008, 14 explosions ont été recensées, dans six provinces du royaume. Elles ont causé la mort de cinq personnes. 19 autres ont été blessées. Parmi elles, quatre victimes ont dû être amputées.
Le bilan du CMVIS met en avant une diminution du nombre de cas. Par rapport à avril 2007, l’organisme recense une baisse de 25 %. Au total, entre 2005 et 2007, leur nombre a diminué de plus de la moitié, passant de 875 à 352.
La plupart des explosions au mois d’avril 2008 ont été enregistrées dans les alentours de Païlin, à l’ouest du royaume. Mais sur la période comprise entre janvier 2007 et avril 2008, c’est la province de Battambang qui a été la plus touchée avec 120 explosions recensées.
En majorité, rappelle le CMVIS, les victimes sont des hommes (54% des cas), suivis par les garçons de moins de 18 ans (32%). La plupart des engins (mine antipersonnel, engins explosifs de circonstance ou résidus explosifs de guerre) se sont déclenchés alors que les victimes les manipulaient.
Outre le recensement des victimes, le personnel du CMVIS fait de la prévention. En avril 2008, il rappelle que 705 personnes ont reçu une sensibilisation aux risques liés aux mines.
Au Cambodge, il resterait 460 km2 de terrains contaminés « si on élimine les zones inhabitées ou qui se trouvent en pleine jungle », explique, en citant une étude de 2004, Hugo Hotte qui travaille pour Handicap International Belgique, coorganisateur avec la Croix-Rouge cambodgienne du projet du CMVIS. Il rappelle de plus « qu’il n’existe pas de consensus sur un chiffre exact au sein de la communauté d'action contre les mines ».
😉C'est pas une blague, je t'assure!! J'ai une "poelle a frire" que j'ai trimbalé sur notre plage durant tout un été........bilan, des centaines de capsules de bouteilles!! Si, tu veux, elle est a toi!
Balade toi bien!
Et forcémment, je vais me ballader dans la nature....alors est-ce dangereux? comment circuler dans le pays en évitant les mines? suis-je ridicule d'avoir peur?
Merci pour vos réponses...
NON pas ridicule du tout ..
tu peux te ballader n'importe ou SI tu restes sur les chemins ou les routes mais ne va pas tenter l'aventure hors sentier battu..meme pour aller faire tes besoins..
Je suis tout a fait d'accord. Je n'ai pas peur de grand chose, et me suis retrouve dans des situations pas tres sympas, y compris au Nigeria ou j'etais du mauvais cote d'une Kalachnikov tenue par un soldat bourre de chanvre jusqu'au trognon, qvec personne d'autre autour; j'ai eu chaud!. Il est vrai que beaucoup de terrain a ete demine, mais il est difficile de se sortir de la tete que..., tant il est vrai que l'"on ne prete qu'aux riches"; on ne sait jamais, et une mine, ca fait des ravages! J'ai passe 7 jours a me ballader a pied et en bicyclette dans les temples d'Angkor; un jour, j'etais un peu fatigue et je me suis dit, "je vais me trouver un petit coin a l'ombre loin de la foule et dormir un peu"; j'ai commence a m'enfoncer a pied dans la foret, et puis cette histoire de saloperie de mines m' a saute a la tete, et, bien que je sois un risque-tout croyant en son etoile, j'ai fait demi-tour. Le risque toujours present n'en vaut pas la chandelle, donc, a mon avis, il, vaut mieux ne pas s'ecarter des chemins visiblement frequentes par les locaux
Avec un trajet SR-PP-Sihanoukville en tout cas pas de risque.
J'ai effectivement entendu sauter une mine, en prenant mon petit dej de soupe de nouilles après une nuit au Prasat Preah Vihear en 2006... Les habitants sont partis voir ce que c'était, homme ou bête, mais je suis moi-même repartie avant leur retour, donc je n'ai pas le fin mot. Mais même en se balladant dans ces coins surminés du nord, le voyageur a bien peu de chance de se retrouver sur des sentiers non-déminés. Je n'ai jamais eu peur pour moi, même dans les coins les plus paumés. Ce sont les habitants de ces campagnes, leurs enfants, leurs animaux qui sautent dessus chaque jour. Pas les voyageurs...
we have flights with Swiss and Lufthansa for January; our flights are still in our booking file. But after reading that the Cambodian ambassador in Paris…
Hi there, We re heading to Southeast Asia for several months as a family with two teens (10 and 13). The first country we re visiting is Cambodia. I m having…

Hi, I’ve read that these two volcanoes are super popular and that there are *tons* of people for sunrise, especially in July. I’m looking for firsthand accounts from anyone who’s done it later, around 9–10 a.m.
Thanks for your help!

I’m heading to Cambodia at the end of December 2026 – January 2027 for 3-4 weeks. Since I’ve already visited Cambodia twice, my itinerary is a bit different this time—I’d love to explore Botum Sakor Park, Chi Pat, the Tatai region, and the Cardamom Mountains. I’m traveling solo. If you have any tips on transportation, excursions, treks, sights, or accommodations in the area, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks for your feedback!
Has anyone traveled with the Laos travel agency ADV ?
I’m planning a trip to Laos and have received several quotes. Among them, this agency’s seem very reasonable, and so far, the interactions have been positive.
I’ve found a few positive reviews online, but I’d love to hear from travelers who’ve actually booked with them: how’s the organization, guide quality, accommodations, on-the-ground responsiveness, etc.
Thanks for sharing your experiences!
First stop on our discovery of the peninsula: Amphawa. It’s our first night in Thailand (we arrived at Suvarnabhumi at 8:50 AM).
Our initial plan was to explore the area before heading further south. The Mae Klong Railway Market is tempting... but what else is there to do????
We’ll be there on a Wednesday, and from what I’ve read on the forum, some say there’s absolutely nothing to do during the week—no floating market, barely any shops open, no restaurants, etc.
Others, though, say the place is actually more charming without the weekend crowds.
Could you share your thoughts? Missing the floating market is one thing, but if it’s really a ghost town on Wednesdays, I might just drop our bags somewhere else.
Amphawa seemed like a good first stop, just 1.5 hours from the airport, but I’d still like to settle somewhere a bit lively for our first evening.
We’ll be there at the end of October.
Thanks!
Hi,
I wanted to visit the plantations in the morning with GetYourGuide or by just showing up.
How much time should I really plan for?
I’d like to catch either the 3 PM or 5 PM bus back to KL.
Thanks
Hi,
I wanted to get some info about the cable car and the bridge—I see lots of different options...
How much time should we allow for these two activities? If we arrive around 4 PM, will we have enough time to visit without rushing?
Thanks
Hi there,
I didn’t plan to return to Thailand this year, but my health conditions mean it’ll be the best place for me to stay between two trips to India. The tourism setup there is so well-organized that it’s the most "comfortable" country for a short visit. Thailand feels too sanitized for my taste, and there’s too much religion, Buddha, and the King, but it’s still the best option given how my health has been evolving. I’d considered two weeks in ThaTon for hiking, but I got too sick from the burn-offs during my trips to the mountains around Chiang Rai. So I’m not sure where to go this year. Definitely not the sea, touristy spots, or the mountains with burn-offs...
Hi,
On September 1st, we're heading to Kalimantan for six weeks, probably from Pontianak to the Derawan Islands.
I've scoured this site, which is usually my go-to 😉, and others like VoyageForum, but recent info is pretty scarce.
I'd love any tips on places you've visited—our itinerary is still a work in progress.
We're two couples traveling with backpacks, using buses, boats, guesthouses, and homestays.
Thanks in advance!
Hi fellow travelers,
First trip to Vietnam.
We’ll be arriving in Ho Chi Minh City during Tet.
Is it complicated to find accommodation and get around during this period?
Any tips would be welcome.
Thanks for your replies.
Hi! I’d like to split my trip into two parts: 15 days in Phuket and 15 days in Krabi. Do you know if I can rent a car and drop it off in Krabi when I fly back to France?
Thanks for your feedback!
Have a great Sunday!

Hello,
After 1 night in Khao Sok, I’d like to find a 2 Days 1 Night package on the lake.
After reading a lot, I decided to "break the bank" and treat ourselves to a private tour—mainly to avoid the crowds.
But after contacting several operators, they offer "private tours" that are very expensive (around 700 €), yet in the details, the boats can only leave from the pier at 10 AM like everyone else. (I was hoping to leave much earlier.) The morning program is the same for everyone too (private or not). They drop us off at noon at our floating hotel (I’d chosen Phupha Waree). Free afternoon (swimming or kayaking in front of the hotel). We head back by boat for a 1-hour sunset ride. And the next morning, we leave the hotel at 8 AM to be at the pier by 9:30 AM at the latest—end of the trip.
So basically, we’re paying a lot for a private tour just to do the same thing as everyone else at the same time.
Or maybe I just had bad luck in my search.
I contacted Panida Ladi, who’s very popular on forums. We’d agreed on a private tour that matched my request (departure from the pier at 8 AM, very personalized itinerary). We settled on the itinerary and price, she asked for a Wise transfer for a 30% deposit, confirmed receipt of the deposit. Then 30 minutes later, she messaged me to say she was canceling everything because it was impossible to do the requested tour—and promised a quick refund of my deposit.
So here’s my question: Who’s done a *real* private tour on this lake? Who can recommend a reliable agency? Is it even really possible to do a private tour here?
I’m searching for a real gem for my 3rd stay in Koh Lanta: a lovely, high-quality hotel right by an easily accessible beach in a lively spot.
If you know of anything that fits what I’m looking for and want to share, don’t hesitate!
Hi, is anyone there in Flores right now? According to some websites, everything is closed and the situation is tough. But our guide says it's fine. Who should we believe? We're supposed to leave on September 2nd. Thanks to anyone in Flores at the moment!
Hi dear community,
I'm planning to visit Cambodia this winter, right after Christmas, for my first solo trip and my first trip to Asia. For two weeks (yes, I know it's short, but I really can't do more...). I have two main desires: Siem Reap and the countryside, the villages, the Mekong...
What do you think of this itinerary? Arrival in Siem Reap, departure from Phnom Penh.
SR: 5 days (1 day for arrival, 3 for the temples, 1 for the lake and its villages)
Kratie (stop on the way to Mondolkiri): 3 days (1 day of travel, 2 days there)
Mondolkiri/Sen Monorom: 4 days (1 day of travel, 1 day there, 2 days of treks)
PP: 3 days (1 day of travel, 2 days of sightseeing)
I think I need to cut one day somewhere if I travel from Saturday to Saturday or Sunday to Sunday. In Kratie, maybe? Or in PP? And I'll miss the boat trip that everyone recommends (SR-Battambang), but I don't see where to fit it in. Unless I do a PP-PP loop starting in the east, skip Kratie or just stay one night, then SR, then PP.
In my timing, Mondolkiri seems closer than Ratanakiri, which also tempted me a lot! Will it be too complicated alone? I'm thinking of using local guides or a small local agency for a nature and village getaway.
I've read that Siem Reap is very crowded between Christmas and New Year's. I could also do the circuit in the opposite direction. But I thought it would be easier to get familiar with the country by arriving in a touristy area—I might be wrong...
Thanks for your advice and opinions!
Hi everyone.
I’m planning my trip, and based on all the posts I’ve read, this country is amazing.
Of course, I’ve got a ton of questions for you.
Here’s a possible itinerary: Vientiane - Vang Vieng - Phonsavan - Sam Neua - Nong Khiaw + villages - Phongsali - Luang Namtha and the area - Udomxai - Huay Xai - Luang Prabang and back to Vientiane.
What do you think?
We’re planning to prioritize local transport—is it possible to do this loop?
We’d also love to go kayaking, but I’m not sure if the season’s right or where the best spot is.
For trekking—I read that Phongsali is the most authentic spot to visit villages and see wildlife. Do you know of a reliable agency and a guesthouse with reasonable prices?
Is it worth taking a slow boat for a stretch on the Mekong, and if so, which route?
For accommodations, is it better to book through Booking.com and Agoda or look when we arrive?
Are mosquitoes bad in Laos, and should we take malaria prophylaxis?
What’s the average daily budget (accommodation, food, visits)?
Is renting scooters a good option for exploring towns, and if so, which ones?
From what I’ve read, it’s best to carry cash—euros or dollars? Is it risky to walk around with that much cash?
I’ve still got tons of questions. Thanks to anyone who can help, and I’m open to all tips, info, etc.
Thanks again
Hi there,
I’m planning a family trip (my wife and I, both 47, and our two sons, aged 5 and 12) to Malaysia for the last week of June and the first two weeks of July 2027.
We used to love road trips as a couple, then as a trio, but since our second child arrived, we’ve taken a break with "camping village" style trips.
Now feels like the right time to get back to our old habits, while adjusting the pace for the kids.
We’re craving Asia. We’ve been lucky enough to visit Thailand, Indonesia (Bali and Lombok), and Sri Lanka before.
Friends have raved about Malaysia, so we’re definitely tempted.
For those who know and love Malaysia, what would be a good itinerary starting from Kuala Lumpur, with a maximum of 3-4 stops? We’d like a mix of culture, nature, and relaxation (just to clarify, we’re not big beach fans). All of this without rushing, of course.
Hello,
We’re a family of four with two teens aged 16 and 18. We’re heading to Thailand this summer. We’ll arrive in Bangkok and plan to take a flight to Luang Prabang.
I’ve seen there are some great visits and excursions to do (temples, markets, waterfalls) and maybe even venture a bit north to places like Nong Khiaw, Muang Xay, Muang Ngoy, or Oudom Xay.
But I’ve also heard about the Bokeo region with the Gibbon Experience.
Since we won’t be able to do everything, I’d love to hear about your experiences, impressions, and advice on the two options I’m considering, especially since we’ll be meeting family in Chiang Mai, Thailand, afterward.
Option 1: A loop from Luang Prabang heading slightly north, then a flight from Luang Prabang to Chiang Mai.
Option 2: A few days in Luang Prabang, exploring within a few dozen kilometers around, then heading to Bokeo province for the 2-day/1-night Gibbon Experience. For this option, I saw on Rome2Rio that it’s possible to book a ferry trip on the Mekong from Luang Prabang to Huay Xay—they mention about 8 hours. But is that realistic? What type of boat is it?
Then, to get to Chiang Mai, there aren’t many options—bus or minivan—but how does crossing the border work?
Finally, for those of you who’ve been to Laos in August, what was the weather like?
We’ve already visited Thailand, Vietnam, and Cambodia during the same period over the past four years and weren’t really bothered by bad weather.
I’m starting a discussion about guides in the Mekong Delta because we’ve just finished our trip in this region and had a hard time finding a French-speaking guide. We had Thanh—she speaks French really well and travels all over the delta region, including Ho Chi Minh City. She’s super friendly and flexible. I recommend her wholeheartedly. If it can help someone...
Feel free to contact us for her number.
Hi everyone,
I couldn’t find any recent info on Kuching.
Can anyone recommend a hotel or guesthouse for under 100 RM that’s nice and affordable? No dorms, please.
Also, does it rain a lot in November, and is it still worth visiting Semenggoh or Bako?
We’ll be arriving in Phnom Penh this coming January and we’re thinking of starting our trip with a stop in Kampong Cham, then Kratie.
After Kratie, we’re considering heading toward Siem Reap with a stop in Kampong Thom.
That said, I’m not really sure how long the Kratie–Kampong Thom journey might take or how complicated it is.
Does this stop on the way to Siem Reap seem like a good idea to you?
If we don’t visit the Sambor Prei Kuk site, are there still any walks or sights worth checking out in Kampong Thom?
Silly question—backpack or hard-shell suitcase for the Sepilok, Kinabatangan, Tioman, KL trip?
I’m struggling to fit all my son’s and my stuff into the 70L backpack... and I’m thinking a suitcase would be easier, but I’m not sure if it’ll work for getting around.
After a stay on Koh Phayam this coming November, I’d like to spend 2 or 3 days on Koh Phra Thong before heading further south.
Do you think it’s doable to leave Koh Phayam early enough to catch the 10 AM boat from Khura Buri to Koh Phra Thong? The next one isn’t until 4 PM, which would cost me a whole day.
I’m planning a trip to Indonesia, specifically Sulawesi and Java, in September for 10 days.
I don’t know this part of the world at all—any advice is welcome!
I’ll be traveling solo and would also love tips on meeting other travelers or locals.
Hello everyone,
Not long ago, I used to travel as a couple, but my husband has since passed away, and I’ve decided to set off again. The trip I took to Cambodia in January 2025 did me a world of good.
I’m now considering Thailand, a destination we never included in our plans because even 15 years ago, people said it was too touristy. Still, I’m thinking about the itinerary below, but I don’t feel up to arranging buses, trains, or guides on my own while I’m there. I’m looking for one or more drivers and have been in touch with an agency, but their offers are just copy-paste group tours that I don’t want.
So, if you have any contacts, experiences, or advice, I’d be so grateful if you’d share them with me. Here’s my rough plan:
Arrival in Bangkok
Ayutthaya (2 nights)
Kanchanaburi (2 or 3 nights)
Sangkhlaburi/Sai Yok (3 nights)
Sukhothai (2 nights)
Lampang (I’ve planned 3 nights, but that might be a bit much—it depends on what time I arrive in the city)
Chiang Mai
Chiang Dao
Pai
Chiang Rai
I was thinking about the Mae Hong Son loop—thoughts?
What do you think about staying overnight at the Golden Triangle?
When I look online, of course, I can find agencies that organize tours to national parks, etc.
I’m retired but in great physical shape. I’d rather go hiking than sit in hot springs with crowds of tourists who’ve all arranged meet-ups. I don’t want to spend a day at an elephant camp, and I don’t want to visit Karen villages.
I’d love to hear your advice.
Thank you all,
Hi everyone,
Could you share your thoughts on my 3-week itinerary?
We’re a small group (family + friends) of 12 people, planning to leave around January 21, 2027.

4 nights in Chiang Mai
3 nights on Koh Samui
3 nights on Koh Phangan
4 nights in Krabi
4 nights in Phuket
I’m also open to any great tips you might have...
Thanks, everyone! Alain.
Hi there,
We’re planning a 3-week family trip next summer with our three kids, who’ll be 8, 8, and 7 years old.
After some research, we’re leaning toward Malaysia to combine nature/forests and paradise beaches. The idea is to introduce our kids to the country’s culture, nature, and wildlife.
We want a great trip but without splurging on luxury options like high-end lodges and resorts. We’re looking for comfort with a touch of authenticity—basically, a good middle ground.
I’ve started putting together an itinerary and would love your expert advice and tips to help us build this amazing trip with our little ones.

1 day with a driver for the Temples (Pura Gunung Kawi, Tirta Empul Spring, Pura Mengening, Goa Gajah...)
- 2 nights in Sidemen (1 day for Pura Kehen + Batur Caldera + Pura Besakih and 1 day to relax in the rice terraces)
- 3 nights on Gili Meno (Rest and beaches) from Padangbai
- 2 nights in Amed (1 day from Padangbai with the Abang rice terrace and Tirta Gangga baths, and the next day a boat tour in Amed)
- 4 nights in Pemuteran (1 day for transfer and rest, 1 day to visit Kawah Ijen, and 2 days of snorkeling at Menjangan Island)
- 2 nights in Munduk (1 day with the Dayang rice terrace and the 3-waterfall hike, 1 day at Pura Ulun Danu Bratan)
- 2 nights in Jatiluwih (1 day in the rice terraces, and on the last day, we’ll stop by Pura Taman Ayun in Mengwi and Pura Tanah Lot before catching our red-eye flight).
Accommodations in homestays or hotels.
Transportation to be arranged on-site with the lodgings (?)
Boat to Gili Meno to book in advance (?)
Kawah Ijen excursion to plan ahead (?)—check with the homestay (?)
Thanks for your thoughts/comments to help us explore this destination...
