What is a family?

A family is defined as a minimum of two people, with one aged 5–18 and one over 18. Travel Indochina does not accept bookings for children without an adult or vice versa. Normally, there is a maximum of three children per adult, or three adults per child.

The child price applies for children under 12. Children aged 12-17 must pay the adult price.

Triple-share is possible.

Travel Indochina's commitment to responsible travel…

"At Travel Indochina, we believe travel should be an exchange – of knowledge and perspectives, of cultures and of wealth."
Travel Indochina's genuine appreciation of Asia's culture, cuisine, her beautiful natural environments and, of course, her people is at the heart of its approach to responsible travel.

Travel Indochina's small group approach means you will meet local people and experience their culture first hand. You will mostly eat in small-scale local establishments, and include homestay and ecolodge experiences, opening the way for cross-cultural exchanges.

With six offices across Asia, Travel Indochina is well-positioned to influence local suppliers to behave responsibly. Travel Indochina's Asian offices are staffed predominantly by locals, and the company uses both local guides and western tour leaders. This combination allows for more informed perspectives and insights into local culture.

Travel Indochina recognises that it works in a developing part of the world. As such political and social factors sometimes impede its responsible travel aspirations. Travel Indochina aspires to realistic, short or medium term incremental change where practical.

How To Be A Responsible Traveller

Learn the language.

You will shop smarter and gain a better insight into the culture. Ask your tour leader or local guide for some handy phrases.

Bargain, but banter.

Bargaining is a cultural norm in much of Asia - it's a fair deal if you are happy with the price you paid, and the seller is happy with the price received!

Go green.

Take short showers, limit your use of plastic bags, and don't be tempted to dine on endangered species.

Care for culture.

In Asia you will need patience - you will never get anywhere by losing your cool. Try to understand the concept of 'face'.

Snap with sensitivity.

A camera can be a fun ice breaker, but try to be discreet. Ask permission before taking a photo, and respect the wishes of people who do not want their photo taken.

Offer only alms.

Giving money, presents or candy to children can create inequality within communities and encourage begging. Gifts like text books and pencils can be given to schools or clinics instead.
