Hi Mark and Ian-
Have you considered Laos? No beaches, but lots of wonderful country to explore and lovely people. We traveled to Luang Prabang, Phonsavan, for the ancient Plain of Jars , and Vang Vieng, where we did some fun cave explorations.
Happy travels!

Here's a link to save you scrolling down. https://www.lonelyplanet.com/thorntree/forums/asia-thailand/thailand/business-as-usual-pai-chiang-mai-c37fb4ee-5c8b-425d-bc46-dc52111645d4#post_23272105

I don't know why you want to lose your time in the south of Cambodia, there are beautiful beaches only 200km from HCM , and the most of interrest are around the Tonle Sap , and coming from HCM , you can easily join Phnom Penh and turn around the Lake and stop in Kompong Chnang, Kompong Luong (Krakor ) , Battambang, Siem Reap, Kompong Thom , Kompong Cham, and Phnom Penh again, but from Kompong Cham you can go back in Vietnam again by the east , to join Traepeng Plong and the vietnamese border to Xa Mat. Very easy.

I don't know what about the moto , but I hope you have good informations to pass the borders with your engine, because if it's easy for a asian people , I don't know what about a foreigner..... CH

Why are you going there to start with? Do you not have a guidebook? What have you read about it? What are your interest? Have you Googled "Top 10 Things to do in Luang Prabang?"

I do not see the reason to have a beach stay in Nha Trang and/or Muine, and then another one in Con Dao or Phu Quoc. I would go all the way up to PHONG NHA for its fabulous grottoes (fly Saigon-Dong Hoi + bu DH-Phong Nha ; stya at the charming Carambola river hotel - A-frame bungalows on river), then down Hue (3 days), then CAR with driver one superb day Hue-Lang Co Lagoon-Pass of the Clouds-Danang Cham Museum-Marble Mountain-Hoi An, 5-6 days HA (An Bong Beach + Cham Island not on week-end), then fly Danang-Saigon, 2 days Saigon, 1 day beautiful excursion Cao Dai temple of Thay Ninh + Cu Chi Tunnels, then 3 days Mekong delta Saigon-Cai Be-An Binh Island (stay at the excellent Nogoc Phuong Homestay)-Vinh long-Can Tho (night at the Thanh Thuy Hotel on Hai Ba Trung St)-morning Cai Rang Floating Market + bus Can Tho-RACH GIA (night) and then speed boat RG-Phu Quoc ; ,return Saigon by plane

Chiang mai has a few exchange places for Kyat, the best is SK exchange near the iron bridge. Just walk down Loi Kroh road until you're close to the bridge, it is on google map.

Grand total of 5 flights into Chiang Mai yesterday all from Bangkok which included 2 Bangkok Airways who have stated they are grounding their fleet on the 7th so swiftly coming to a halt.

And just been announced that anyone arriving in Chiang Mai from Bangkok or points south has to go into 14 day isolation in your own home if you have or at a location those that rule will decide on if you don't.

Be safe folks
