We plan to start in Malaysia then move to Vietnam. 10-14 days in Vietnam and onto Cambodia. From Cambodia overland to Bangkok where we finish.
We want to travel on spec booking a good hotel for the first night in both Vietnam and Cambodia (Malaysia and Thailand are no problem). We then travel light staying wherever is cheap and reasonable standard. If things get to rough we can afford a good hotel if necessary - so any hotel no problems.
We want to see the cultural side and the ancient ruins, with a few days at the beach if possible.

I have been to Cambodia and the North of Vietnam.
Vietnam is so friendly, beautiful and great value for the dollar. I love the place. I recommend you go there.
Cambodia is for a seasoned traveler. Siem Reap is amazing with the Angkor Wat ruins, but it is touristy.
Pnom Penh is a tough visit though. The war only ended about 15 years ago and the recovery has been amazing, but the shadows of the war are prevalent. The most obvious being the amputees and then the fact that you see no old people.
Check out the vehicles there. If you have had a car, truck, or SUV stolen, you just might see it drive by there.

Since visa and other exit and entry conditions might change from time to time, one needs to contact the nearby Embassy or Consulate of Vietnam for the latest updates. Normally, Vietnam offers four types of visas as per the needs of the visitors. These include; transit visa, student visa, tourist visa, and business visa. The tourist visa and business visa are varied for 1 and 3 months consecutively while the transit visa is varied for just 5 days. In the case of student visa, the duration is arranged after your arrival.
