A land of mystery, splendid beauty and intriguing contrasts between ultra modern and the ageless. Asia evokes images of saffron-robed Buddhist monks, golden temples and idyllic islands. The cultures, customs, sights and sounds. On Thailand holidays, you’ll find chic designer beach hotels, sumptuous spa resorts and luxurious villas.

Myanmar, Cambodia and Vietnam holidays are less travelled and visitors are welcomed with open arms. Retrace history at the gigantic temple of Angkor Wat in Cambodia, with its grand towers shaped like lotus buds. In Laos, rice fields are hidden behind Vientiane’s tree-lined avenues, and laid-back Luang Prabang has streets filled with temples and French mansions.

Further east, we can take you through Japan, visiting Tokyo, Hiroshima and Kyoto, riding a Bullet Train. The Terracotta Army, Great Wall and Yangtze River – see them all during a China tour and, in Hong Kong, ride up to Victoria Peak for views over the city skyline and harbour.

Singapore is the place for shopping, with over 200 malls, and you can enjoy the famous afternoon tea or even a Singapore Sling at Raffles Hotel to toast your new purchases.

Malaysia is fascinating, from neck craning skyscrapers in Kuala Lumpur to charming orang-utans in Borneo. Or head to Indonesia and the beautiful beaches and a thriving art scene in Bali.
