You may have been to Paris, Lyon or Bordeaux but have you ever thought about the countryside of France?  Provence, one of my favorite parts of France, is waiting for you!  You can rent an apartment in the historic walled city of Avignon and enjoy all the little shops and fabulous restaurants right outside your door. Or travel to the countryside to Les Baux-de-Provence, a charming hilltop town.  Make sure you get tickets to Carrieres des Lumieres, an unforgettable display of art.  Or make it a Sunday drive about a 45-minute drive from Avignon to the Sunday market in L'Isle-sur-la-Sorgues along the river.  Make a reservation at the Michelin restaurant for lunch!  Take one day to travel to Aix-en-Provence to their Saturday Farmer's Market for an unforgettable sight.  But there's plenty to do in and around Avignon, like a hike around the Pont du Gard, a visit to Chateauneuf de Pape winery and the historical Palais de Papes (Palace of the Popes).

I can help you plan your stay a give you a self-guided tour of this perfect region in the South of France.

Temple in Angkor Wat

Good Morning Cambodia! 

Cambodia, located in Southeast Asia, is a country rich in history, culture, and natural beauty. It is best known for Angkor Wat, the largest religious monument in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built in the 12th century by the Khmer Empire, Angkor Wat and the surrounding temple complex in Siem Reap attract millions of visitors every year.Beyond Angkor Wat, Cambodia offers a diverse range of attractions. Phnom Penh, the capital city, blends French colonial architecture with bustling markets and important historical sites like the Royal Palace, the Silver Pagoda, and the Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum, which offers a sobering look into the Khmer Rouge era.For beach lovers, Sihanoukville and the nearby islands, such as Koh Rong and Koh Rong Samloem, boast white sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters, making them ideal for relaxation and water activities.Nature enthusiasts can explore Tonlé Sap Lake, the largest freshwater lake in Southeast Asia, or venture into the Cardamom Mountains, home to lush rainforests and diverse wildlife.Cambodia's cuisine is another highlight, with dishes like amok (a coconut fish curry), kuy teav (noodle soup), and lok lak (stir-fried beef) offering a taste of the country’s culinary traditions.Despite its tragic history under the Khmer Rouge regime, Cambodia has emerged as a vibrant and welcoming destination with resilient people, stunning landscapes, and a deep cultural heritage. It is a must-visit for those looking to experience a mix of history, adventure, and tropical beauty.

AmaWaterways can take you there on a land and Mekong River cruise.  Several years ago I traveled to Southeast Asia on AMA starting in Hanoi and Halong Bay.  We then traveled to Siem Reap Cambodia and visited the ancient Hindu temple of Angkor Wat.  Venturing down to Phnom Penh we boarded our river boat and sailed for 7 days down the Mekong visiting floating markets, Buddhist temples and rice paddy fields.  Our last stop was Ho Chi Minh City which surprisingly similar to the bright lights and congestion of New York City.

If you've never been to Southeast Asia, I would highly recommend cruising down the Mekong with AMA.  Let's plan this trip for you!
