They were repeatedly tortured and coerced into naming family members and close associates, who were in turn arrested, brought to S21, tortured and eventually killed. In 1979, the prison was uncovered by the invading Vietnamese army who toppled the Khmer Rouge and its leader, Pol Pot. In 1980, the prison was reopened by the government of the People's Republic of Kampuchea as a historical museum. The Killing Fields is the name given to numerous burial sites in Cambodia where huge numbers of people were killed and buried by the infamous Khmer Rouge regime between 1975 and 1979. Over 20,000 mass grave sites have been found across Cambodia, estimates place the number of dead between 2 and 4 million. Many of these deaths were a result of the Khmer Rouge policies that resulted in the disease and starvation of much of its population.

Today you will be picked up from your hotel in the Hanoi Old Quarter between 8:00 - 8:30 am depending on the location of your hotel. Please be ready and waiting in the lobby from 8:00 am. Take a scenic 3.5-hour bus ride through rural Vietnam en route to Halong Bay arriving at the marina at around noon. Take a quick ferry to your Party Cruise to get settled into your cabin and then have a traditional Vietnamese lunch on board as you set sail into the calm waters and stunning scenery of Halong Bay. Pass by several unique islets in the form of different animals and objects; Duck Islet, Swan Islet, Fighting Cocks Islet, Incense Burner Islet and Stone Dog Islet. After lunch, go for a 2-hour kayaking trip through a tunnel to get off the beaten path and discover Halong Bay's Frog Pond. The rest of the afternoon is yours to enjoy. Jump off the boat into emerald waters, go for a swim, and try out the "water trampoline," the outdoor jacuzzi, or some volleyball until dinner is served around 7 pm. Eat your fill because the next item on the agenda is partying with a live DJ until the sun comes up!
