Vietnam & Angkor Wat by Eyewitness Guides
- Price: £14.99 Add to Basket
- The best of the photographic guides, this includes wonderful, vibrant, up-to-date photographs and graphic illustrations that are helpful to the sightseer. The practical tips on getting around and where to stay are less useful for a budget traveller.
-
Vietnam by Lonely Planet
- Price: £15.99 Add to Basket
- As to be expected from the Lonely Planet, this guide is useful for travelling logistics, budget hotel listings and clearly laid-out, but falls short of its competitors on cultural and historical information.
-
Vietnam by Rough Guides

- A good practical guide for the traveller on a budget, with well-written cultural and historical background and carefully selected recommendations that will take you off the beaten track.

Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos & Northern Thailand by Lonely Planet
- Price: £15.99 Add to Basket
- Southeast Asia is certainly Lonely Planet's speciality and this clearly laid-out guide includes thorough hotel listings and detailed travel information for the backpacker. Perhaps this succinct version is not ideal for long stays in each country.
-
Vietnam, Cambodia & Laos by Footprint Guides
- Price: £15.99 Add to Basket
- The Footprint guides are excellent with a useful mix of practical and cultural information. This is also one of the only guides to include Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos. Half the book is dedicated to Vietnam and there is a specific chapter on Angkor Wat.

Angkor Wat and Siem Reap Encounter by Lonely Planet

-
Cambodia by Lonely Planet
- Price: £14.99 Add to Basket
- Although occasionally lacking in historical and cultural detail, it is a clearly laid-out, practical guide with great hotel listings and travel logistics for the backpacker. Southeast Asia is definitely the Lonely Planet specialty.

-
Malaysia & Singapore by Eyewitness Guides
- Price: £15.99 Add to Basket
- A well-produced, vibrant guide with beautiful colour photographs and graphic illustrations. Aimed at the sightseer rather than the traveller because, while the cultural and historical background is strong, the practical information and listings are weaker.
