Why experience Asia with Contiki?

The people make the trip

In-depth chats. Immersive encounters. Around 20 travellers per trip (30 max) means you’ll find your small circle and write a bigger story.

Stays are part of the story

Spend the night on a jungle raft in Thailand, drift across Halong Bay on a private boat, or settle into traditional guest house in Japan. Not your average hotel check-in.

Travel easy with Trip Managers

Your Trip Manager is with you from start to finish, alongside local guides who know the destination well beyond the book.

Experience our special stays

Sleep in a Buddhist guest house on sacred Mount Koya, a bamboo raft hotel floating on the River Kwai, or a traditional Junk Boat. Our Special Stays in Asia make your accomodation a part of the adventure.

Frequently asked questions about Asia

Asia’s huge. So, the best time to visit depends on where you plan on travelling. For example, between March and April is the perfect time to visit Japan if you wanna catch the cherry blossom festival, or India if you wanna see all the colourful Holi celebrations. If Southeast Asia’s more your thing, the weather is usually best between November and April. Again, it all depends on what’s happening (and when) - so get researching!
