Thailand
Thailand is a foodie paradise! Some of the world’s best foods hail from Thailand, where visitors can get their fill of local favorites including: Som Tum, Tom Yum Goong, Pad Kra Prao and of course the ever present Pad Thai. Once full, travelers can take in the views from a river taxi on the Chao Phraya River or browse night markets in energetic Bangkok, visit temples in ancient Chiang Mai or lounge on the beach in Phuket or Krabi where there’s never a shortage of sun.
Indonesia
Indonesia is an archipelago of over 17,000 islands. The varied landscape and activities make this country a hit for any traveler. Bali’s beaches, coral reef and volcanic mountains are a paradise for honeymooners and it is home to some of the world’s most intimate luxury resorts. Komodo is a divers paradise with diverse aquatic life, and of course the chance to spot the island’s indigenous Komodo Dragon. For those wishing to get away from it all, the tiny island of Lombok is a gem due to its quiet, pristine beaches and excellent surfing.
Japan
Japanese culture is a juxtaposition of the ultramodern and the ancient. In Tokyo, travelers can visit the Imperial Palace or Senso-Ji Temple which are tucked within the urban landscape and experience world class cuisine which is much more than just sushi. A trip to the ancient capital of Kyoto is a breeze on the Shinkasen (or bullet train). Spring in Japan brings a chance to see the cherry blossom blooms which cover the country, while in the winter, skiers are spoiled with some of the world’s best powder (and a hot bowl of ramen).
