GET IN TOUCH

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!
