I have 3 weeks in April (may also be able to start late March) to take a trip. I would like to visit at least 2-3 of the following places at least. Any recommendations?

Cambodia
Malaysia
Bhutan
Indonesia
Burma
Sri Lanka
Vietnam
Laos
Singapore
Japan

I think Thailand is too hot? Are any of these other places too hot and/or mosquitoey?

It will probably be cherry blossom time in Japan.

Bhutan at elevation would still be cool but nice.

Agree Japan in spring particularly cherry blossom time is absolutely beautiful!

great - thanks for the feedback. do you recommend spending all 3 weeks in japan or combine it with some other countries. what would make the most sense if i did add some other countries in?

bhutan, japan and northern vietnam are the only places that will not be very hot....cambodia generally is hoter than thailand for instance...

i hate the heat too, but i still go and find ways to keep out of it, like a/c cars, etc..

from the places that you list there are some natural go togethers...

indonesia/singapore/malaysia
burma/cambodia/vietnam/laos

if you have not been to thailand, it makes a lot of sense to spend some time in bkk and then use it to visit some of the others, especially laos, cambodia, myanmar (burma), malaysia and indonesia....bkk is a great hub ....

LTH,

If you want us to plan for you , you have to give us all the vital info. ie,what's your budget, where your traveling from, what kind of travel you like to do,are you a couple, how old, are you well travelled, etc.

Then we can totally massacre it for, lol!

Then we can get a better idea of where andwhat to recco.

Aloha!

Again, many thanks for the valuable feedback. It is much appreciated.

Japan is on the way to several of those places. I could spend the three weeks in Japan. One time I spent two weeks in Thailand and Cambodia (three days) and then a week in Japan. Another trip was two weeks in Japan and a week in Bali (that was in May and Bali would probably be a good choice for April).
