Tailor-made holidays to Southeast Asia

Southeast Asia is a vast region of Asia, lying east of the Indian Subcontinent and south of China. It includes the mainland area, made up of Indochina and the Malay peninsula, and a string of archipelagos to the south and east.

The region is inhabited by many different peoples and unique wildlife, and offers the traveller a wide range of experiences. Whether you want to discover cultural heritage, meet local tribes, explore rainforests, relax on a beach, sample local cuisine or cruise along a busy waterway; Southeast Asia has something for you.

Southeast Asia, and Vietnam in particular, was Audley's first ever destination, back when we were known as ‘Asian Journeys’. Our programme then expanded to cover the remaining Southeast Asian destinations.

Keeping abreast with developments is always a challenge in this part of the world, which is why our specialists travel there regularly. Recent trips have revealed the wonderful hill tribe region of Ha Giang in northern Vietnam, and the fascinating, but little-known Isan province of Thailand. From the ancient temples of Angkor in Cambodia to the orang-utan sanctuaries and local tribes in Borneo, this region offers something for everyone. Explore Indochina by boat along the mighty Mekong River and discover the charm and beauty of Laos. Immerse yourself in the rich colonial history of Malaysia or take in the stunning views of rice terraces and mountains in the Philippines. Southeast Asia also has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. InIndonesia, you can enjoy both culture and relaxation. Southeast Asia is fast developing but you can still experience places that have been left seemingly untouched by foreign influence such as the mesmerising country of Burma or the fascinating Papua New Guinea.

Our Southeast Asia specialists travel the region extensively and many have lived and worked in the countries that they specialise in. Whether you have never been to Southeast Asia before or you are a frequent visitor, our specialists can tailor make an itinerary for you with the guarantee that you will have an unforgettable trip.
