Picture Postcard Sightseeing !
To fit in as much as we can of the Far East within the time available, we have carefully structured our sightseeing tours as panoramic or orientation tours or visits.

Orientation city tour
Here, you get off the coach and see the sights at close quarters, without going in.

Visit
A visit to a place means that you will enter the site or monument and spend some time in the place.

Tour Manager

Professional Guides
There's no substitute for a little local flavour, so we employ local guides who give the necessary perspective to specific cities and places of historic interest. They complement your Tour Manager.

Since most of your travel will be by road, we have carefully chosen an air conditioned coach for your comfort. We request you to assist us in keeping the coach neat and clean, so that all of you can be comfortable during your holiday.
