Essence of the Orient
Experience the exotic appeal of Bangkok, majestic lure of Bali, and the cultural intensity of
Singapore, where the beauty of the landscapes match the warmth of the people.
This journey takes you to lands where the beauty of the dramatic
landscapes match the warmth of the people; where rich traditions
endure, religion prevails, and the arts thrive; and where visitors are
welcomed with the smiles of Asia, indeed.
Begin in Bangkok – Thailand’s capital known for its ornate shrines,
vibrant street life and legendary nightlife. There’s no doubt that your
senses will be assaulted in this city that blends modern civilization
and historic treasures so well. The temples, despite being in the centre
of a thriving 21st century metropolis, are some of the finest in all
of Asia. Discover the exotic Bangkok, marvel at the opulence of the
Grand Palace, visit Wat Pho and other tranquil temples, cruise the
Chao Phraya River, immerse ourselves in the beauty of ancient Siam
in Ayutthaya, visit the infamous bridge that spans the River Kwai,
and learn about the encounter with endangered Asian elephants.
For centuries, Bali has captivated the imagination of artists, writers,
and travellers with its landscapes of emerald terraced rice fields backdropped
by the sacred volcano of Mt. Batur. Admire Bali’s breathtaking
scenery, volcanoes, jungles and white-sand beaches. Begin with
a few nights in Ubud. Observe daily life on the Island of the Gods
and visit a few of its most beautiful temples. Experience the beauty
of the Jatiluwih rice field terraces, a UNESCO World Heritage cultural
landscape. Participate in cultural workshops and enjoy stunning
views of iconic volcanoes.
Visit the Mother Temple of Prura Besakih and Sea Temple of Tanah
Lot and take in the traditional markets in Ubud before concluding
with a three-night stay at a beach resort in Seminyak.
Unique is the word that best describes Singapore,
a country/city of delightful contrasts and balances
of its old Chinese quarter and colourful Hindu temples
with modern skyscrapers. Visit its lively sights,
including Merlion Park and Marina Bay. Walk
through popular neighbourhoods of Chinatown, Little
India and Clarke Quay. Explore the Botanic Garden,
have the famous Singapore Sling at Long Bar,
and savour local delicacies at Lau Pa Sat Market.
Brimming with unbridled energy and bursting with
exciting events, Singapore offers countless unique,
memorable experiences waiting to be discovered.
