Asia A melting pot of ancient cultures, stunning architecture, charming villages, beautiful beaches, mouthwatering cuisine and picturesque countryside - this and more can be found in Asia.

A holiday in Asia offers something for everyone. With little distance between some of the countries, exploring Asia is so easy. Major airlines such as Qantas, Singapore Airlines, Cathay Pacific, Malaysia Airlines and Virgin Australia fly out of Adelaide into multiple Asian holiday destinations; the option to fly into one city and out of another is an economical way to see as much as you can in the time you have.

Take a tour for a unique and exciting way to discover the countries of Asia. You’ll combine local transportation with mini-bus and water vessel transport; giving you the opportunity to get up close and personal with the culture, the countryside and its people. For a truly relaxing experience, unpack once as you sail down one of the many river systems in Asia on a luxury river ship. Catching local trains and buses can be a fantastic way to fully immerse yourself in the country and gives you a great opportunity to mingle with the locals. Hire a moped for the day and visit the quaint towns and scenic spots you pass by, exploring the area at your own pace.

With the advent of low-cost carriers, flying from city to city is an affordable and timesaving way to get around. Spend the weekend shopping in Singapore before catching a flight to Bali for a relaxing beach break. By the following weekend, you can be marvelling at the temples of Angkor Wat before flying to Bangkok for a sojourn in Thailand.

Test your stamina with a trek through the Himalayas, admiring the beauty of nature at its finest. Haggle in the markets in Delhi or see the awe-inspiring Great Wall of China. Drink cocktails by the pool in Koh Samui or float down the river on a tube in Laos. Activity and adventure or relaxation and rejuvenation – the choice is yours.
