Discover the Far East
A unique blend of cultural experiences
Far East
Comprising the exotic destinations of Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia, Cambodia, Laos, Singapore, Japan, China and Hong Kong, the Far East offers adventure aplenty and packages that suit the gap-year backpacker and high-end luxury traveller alike. The ideal escape will combine the region’s most exciting cities, most wondrous wildlife and best cultural attractions with some well-earned relaxing on tropical beaches. Escorted tours are the best way to cram everything in!
Having avoided colonisation Thailand has absorbed Western influences whilst maintaining its own rich heritage and cultural integrity. Bangkok’s temples mingle with bustling bars, traditional Thai markets and comprehensive shopping malls. Phuket offers a party atmosphere as well as a more relaxing stays at the luxurious resorts of Bang Tao Bay.
Singapore provides some of the finest shopping and culinary delights. Originally founded as a British trading colony it has become one of the world’s most affluent nations. Hong Kong is a global centre of culture and is dynamic, ravishing and awe inspiring.
The wetlands of Vietnam’s Mekong Delta offer a mystery like no other, a contrast to its rugged mountains and lush forests. Cambodia arouses the hidden discoverer in us all and is home to some of the most famous relics of ancient civilisation, while Laos offers a more relaxed environment with a slower pace of life.
A voyage to Burma (Myanmar) will scintillate the senses of all explorers in a country yet unspoilt by Western influences - gilded pagodas, natural beauty, engaging locals and endless trekking opportunities.
Japan, otherwise known as ‘Land of the Rising Sun’, is a mix of past, present and future combining ancient traditions, heart-breaking history and new world technology.
A country of contrasts, China, is one of the four oldest civilisations in the world. With tradition and innovation constantly working side by side, China gives you the full living experience. Whether you want to discover the rice fields and monastery villages or capture the true spirit of the modern world in the mega-cities, China never disappoints.
MALAYSIA HOLIDAYS
A day trip to the Sepilok Orang Utan Centre, set amidst a vast tropical rain forest, offers the opportunity to see cheeky orang-utans in their natural habitat. Striking a balance between the authentic safari experience and the traditions of Thai culture can only mean one thing: a stay at Elephant Hills, Khao Sok. The bustling nightlife of Chinatown, Singapore is an experience to behold. You can learn how to regulate your Yin and Yang before taking a ride on a rickshaw through the alleys.
VIETNAM AND CAMBODIA HOLIDAYS
Vietnam’s capital Hanoi, the ‘Paris of the Orient’, provides a charming flavour of Asia’s heritage. It has retained much of its original French colonial architecture and the tree-lined boulevards provide a stark contrast to the cramped alleyways of the old quarter. The private island resort of Song Saa in Cambodia presents visitors with an exclusive resort with virgin rain forests and tropical reefs. Angkor Wat is the best preserved monument in Cambodia, the aerial view from a hot air balloon is nothing short of spectacular!
EXCLUSIVE ESCAPES
If visiting Thailand, we can suggest an exquisite colonial- style hotel set in delightful tropical gardens. If visiting Malaysia, we can recommend a resort that is nothing short of a sanctuary of luxury and well being. If visiting Cambodia, then let Flitch Travel book you into a haven of sustainable luxury in the warm sapphire waters of the Gulf of Thailand.

Amelia at Flitch Travel carefully listened to our requirements for our bespoke four-week holiday to South Africa. She obtained quotes from various specialist suppliers for comparison, which enabled us to select a package that met our needs perfectly. We have just returned from our once-in-a-lifetime trip and couldn’t be happier with all the arrangements made for us. We had an amazing time.

Amie & Amelia have been outstanding!
I usually handle our holiday bookings, but I must say I have enjoyed taking a back seat this time. Ladies, this is definitely the first of many more!
Roll on October....I'll be back!

Flitch travel booked our honeymoon 3 years ago which was amazing and no other holiday lived up to it... until now. Shandrani beachcomber hotel, Mauritius was incredible. We were looked after so thoroughly. All the staff were incredibly welcoming, couldn’t do enough for you. Thank you so much for booking such a wonderful holiday, can’t wait to go back!
Claire Katie Eastaugh
Very friendly and understanding. We had a detailed set of requirements which Flitch managed in a way that made us feel that an individual plan was being made.
Sharon
A big thank you to Rebecca of Flitch Travel, I went in not really knowing where to go for my family holiday, I gave her my requirements, she ran through the pro’s and con’s of various options and I opted for Turkey. Now returned from an amazing time my family and I had at the Resort we chose, I look forward to dealing with her again for my next holiday experience.
