Hi All,
its another topic on "advice for my RTW trip" again....but this will be my last of the noob questions.
Right, so we've planned out our trip, we've found a good rtw ticket for a decent price and its time to put some dates down and stick to them. Not having been to alot of these countries before, I'm not sure about how long to stay there. I have made a list of things to do in each country (priorities) but I don't want to grossly misjudge how long travelling around takes or rush through a country because I didn't plan it very well.
So here is my itinerary, any advice and observations would be more than welcome:
London - Leave 9th November 2010
Las Vegas - overland to LA (grand canyon, maybe san francisco) - 4 weeks
Rarotonga, Cook Islands (not sure how expensive it is in the cook islands) - 9 days
Auckland - overland to Christchurch (bungee, trekking, rafting, sky dive etc) - 5 Weeks
Sydney - overland to Brisbane (we'll do Uluru and see the Great Barrier Reef) - 5 Weeks
Ho Chi Minh City - Overland to Bangkok - from Vietnam, we are going into Laos then into North Thailand through to Bangkok. From here we will fly to New Delhi, go to Agra, see the Taj Mahal and then take the train to Amritsar and take another train into Pakistan, where I will meet up with some family...then we will take the same route back into India and fly back to Bangkok (or we could fly out from Pakistan into Bangkok, but this is quite a bit more expensive as this part of the trip we are doing independantly of our rtw ticket)
From Bangkok we will go to Cambodia to see Angkor Watt, and then enter thailand going to Pattaya making our way into phuket and then into Malaysia. From Malaysia we will go overland into Singapore
We have given ourselves 6 months in Asia.
Singapore to Jo'burg.
Jo'burg - overland into Nairobi (through Botswana, Zambia, Tanzania and then into Nairobi) - 2 months
I'm worried the africa part of the trip might be too little time to sit back and enjoy.
Sorry for the long long post, but any advice would be very much appreciated.
Thanks 😊
