Asia Holidays

Majestic, mysterious, ancient: our Asia tours are your gateway to a magical continent. Choose from a fabulous range of holidays and cruises to Asia: from the dazzling Taj Mahal in India, awesome symbol of enduring love, to China’s Great Wall, spanning over 45,000 km of wild scenic views.

Inspired by Asia holidays? How about a cruise down China’s mighty Yangtze River, taking in the spectacular Three Gorges? Our Asia holidays also visit Thailand’s River Kwai, where long-tailed boats glide beneath the famous bridge. Then there’s Halong Bay in Vietnam, with its emerald waters and dramatic pinnacled islands and Laos with its herds of wild elephants, exquisite handicrafts and centuries-old monasteries. Or choose Japan, a country where tradition co-exists with modernity and futuristic architecture towers next to ancient temples and pagodas.

Alternatively, pick one of the Asia tours that explore the Himalayas in Nepal, where snowy peaks, sacred lakes, ancient temples and remote villages transport you to another world. Or pick one of our Asia tours to India, country of contrasts, colour and delicious food. And for sheer bliss, try our Asian holidays in Sri Lanka and the Maldives – breathtakingly beautiful islands surrounded by crystal-clear lagoons and miles of turquoise ocean.
