  1. Marc Scherrer says:

    Hallo, Ich wollte eine Anfrage stellen, leider wird die aber irgendwie blockiert. Ich bin momentan in Thailand und kann meine Anreise relativ flexibel planen. Ich würde gerne ab dem 26. Februar eine Mekong Tour machen, entweder Flussaufwärts ab Saigon nach Phnom Phen oder umgekehrt.
    Spätestes Abreisedatum wäre allerdings der 4. März am Abend.

    Vielen Dank für die Hilfe!
