I am 100% set on going travelling in the near future to south east Asia being, Thailand, Cambodia, Vietnam and Laos primarily. I have gained much support however I am constantly being reminded of organisations that offer trips to SE Asia and other destinations.
Now from my understanding of the trips offered (especially in SE Asia) they seem to be targeted at teens and young adults with nothing but drinking in mind. Now I'm all one for having a drink but is would seem these trips just go from one party location to the other which seems a waste in such a beautiful location. With this is mind I want to go without the reassuring backing of organisation to help out. Is this a good idea? Or will I be alright given that the area is so heavily populated by tourists currently?
Thanks and if anyone has taken a trip like this with or without an organisation I would love to hear about your experience.
