The vibrant soul of
Asia with True Travel
Asia is Earth’s Pandora’s box. From blink-and-you-miss-them bullet trains to hill tribe treks through Vietnamese jungle, and staggering diversity, it is a treasure trove of hypnotising experiences. Its beaches are also some of the best. So, whether you want to snooze, eat or explore, the only thing you need to do first is decide where to start.
Specialist Tip
For the real taste of Thailand, look beyond upscale restaurants and head to its streets and markets. Ingredients and cooking styles vary dramatically around the country, making local food stalls one of the best ways to understand each region and its distinctive flavours.
Specialist Tip
The temples of Angkor are extraordinary, but visiting early in the morning or late in the afternoon makes all the difference. An expert guide will help you navigate the complex, avoiding the busiest hours and bringing the history of the Khmer Empire vividly to life.
Specialist Tip
India rewards a thoughtful itinerary that avoids trying to see too much at once. Focus on one or two regions, build in downtime between journeys, and allow time to absorb the atmosphere of local markets, historic forts and quiet rural villages.
Specialist Tip
Indonesia is far more than just Bali. Combine the island’s culture and beaches with the dragon-inhabited islands of Komodo, the ancient temples of Java, or a private boat expedition through the marine wilderness of Raja Ampat.
Specialist Tip
Travel light when journeying through Japan. The country’s excellent luggage forwarding services mean your bags can be sent ahead between hotels, leaving you free to navigate train stations, bullet trains and sightseeing with ease.
Specialist Tip
Singapore is ideal for a stopover, but treat it as a destination in its own right. Beyond its impressive skyline, explore distinctive neighbourhoods such as Katong, Kampong Gelam and Little India to discover its rich cultural heritage and incredible food scene.
Specialist Tip
The train journey through Sri Lanka’s tea country between Kandy and Ella is legendary for good reason. Reserve a observation carriage seat in advance, sit back, and watch the mist-shrouded hills, tea plantations and waterfalls roll past.
