Far East

CHINA
Ancient, vast, evolving and exciting, home to the world’s oldest civilisation, China is a country of contrast. Its cultural monuments are unsurpassed: The Great Wall of China dating back 2500 years and built to keep out the marauding hordes, the Forbidden City of the Chinese Emperors, Tiananmen Square in Beijing, the largest square in the world and the Terracotta Warriors of Xi’an are amongst the countless wonders.
JAPAN
Japan has lured untold numbers of adventurers since Marco Polo first introduced it to the world back in the 13th century as “Zipangu – the Land of gold.” Japan offers great cultural variety, colourful and inspiring natural attractions beautifully interwoven by four distinct seasonal changes, not to mention the hospitality of its people.
NORTH KOREA
The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) is almost completely unexploited by commercial tourism and rarely visited by foreigners. There is a wealth of unspoiled natural wilderness and the cultural background of the world’s only Stalinist state makes any trip here out of the ordinary.
SOUTH KOREA
With their own unique language, alphabet and culture, the Korean people have inhabited their peninsula for over 5000 years. Since the Second World War and Korean War, Korea has literally risen from the ashes and reinvented itself as a modern and vibrant nation. However, alongside the skyscrapers and superhighways you will find a more ancient and traditional Korea still waiting to be discovered.
