Experts in tailor-made vacations to North Asia, China & Japan
Cherry blossom season in Japan
Some of the world’s oldest and largest empires originated in this part of the world, and our specialists can arrange for you to take part in one-off experiences that get to the heart of these countries’ cultures, their storied pasts and complex present. You could find yourself staying the night in a Mongolian ger camp, or riding the Trans-Siberian Railway. Learn ninja swordplay in Kyoto, or hike a remote section of the Great Wall.
North Asia and its nearby countries are also sometimes seen as austere and bureaucratic — a by-product, perhaps, of Communism (which still holds sway in some of these places). But, our specialists are eager to show you that these countries aren’t nearly so different and daunting if you take the time to travel there, and go with an open mind.
