How to tune Southeast Asia for low season
I am trying to avoid high tourist season in the following countries: Thailand, Laos, Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar
I am arriving to the region (haven't picked an entry point yet) in mid-June (the coincide with start of the wet season).
I know summer holidays means tourists, so I would appreciate your help to ORDER these specific countries in the most logical way to avoid the peak period in each country. I don't mind the rain, it is the tourists, I wish to avoid (and the higher prices associated with them). I have lots of time, for example 1 month in each country.
I am only going to specific pockets in each country.
And I am flying everywhere, not a fan of overland trips.
So fly in, spend 1 month in a loop, then fly out.
Here is a mock order, I would like to re-arrange it.
* THAILAND (Chiang Mai and Pai) mid June-mid July
* LAOS (Luang Prabang and North) mid July-mid Aug
* VIETNAM (Hanoi and North) mid Aug-mid Sept
* CAMBODIA (Siem Reap and Battambang) mid Sep-mid Oct
* MYANMAR (Mandalay and North) mid Oct-mid Nov
* I may skip Myanmar and/or Cambodia and spend the last couple months in either South/Central Vietnam, Southern Laos or Deep South Thailand. Again, dependant on flight connections, and low season crowds.
So again, I am ok to go in wet season, and the whole point is to avoid peak tourist season, that is why I ended the trip in mid November, as the dry, peak season starts around that time in mainland Southeast Asia. Thanks!
