Cambodia
Trips to the temples at Angkor and a cruise on the Mekong Delta are musts for any bespoke itinerary
South East Asia
From the temples of Angkor in Cambodia to the orangutans of the Borneo’s lowland rainforest, a holiday in South East Asia opens the gate into a region of great historical, biological and anthropological interest, a region of undiscovered ruins and unnamed species which 21st-century historians and naturalists are only now starting to explore.
Because we’ve explored these incredible destinations ourselves, we can recommend the sites, flavours, and activities that will allow you to experience the essence of a place at a pace that suits you. And with our highly qualified guides, you’ll be looked after every step of the way.
Watch the sun rise over Angkor Wat, pay a visit to a traditional Toraja village in Indonesia, observe orangutan in the rainforest canopies, stroll along the gentle, warm sands of a Thai beach and dine like a king. We will ensure your holiday leaves you loving South East Asia as much as we do.

It was my passion for languages that first encouraged me to leave the UK behind and grab my rucksack. Since then, it’s been a mixture of intriguing cultures, jaw-dropping landscapes and the wonder of seeing animals in their natural habitat that sees me continuously extending my travel wish list.

Being from a family with Army connections I can from an early age remember travelling. From camping in Europe and then later being sent to boarding school when we lived in Germany at the age of eight, complete with shorts, long socks, a cap and my suitcase. In appearance not too dissimilar to the children evacuated to the countryside during the blitz.
