South East Asia
For all its lush landscapes and magisterial temples, the popular image of South East Asia is often of the locals, and no wonder. Whether it’s a saffron-robed monk, conical-hatted farmer or colourful street hawker, wherever you go in the region a smile is always at the ready, the welcome always warm and genuine. That sunny demeanour makes sense the more you see of the countries here. South East Asia won in the lottery of seductive landscapes: alabaster beaches and pellucid waters studded with limestone stacks; hills and mountains carpeted with steamy jungles; rolling rivers gloriously enlivened with floating markets and surrounded by verdant rice paddies. Throw in unforgettable embellishments of the land – incomparable Angkor Wat; serene Sukhothai; sunrise over Burma’s spellbinding temple-strewn Pagan plain – and it soon becomes clear that the most difficult part of any adventure in South East Asia is choosing where to go – everywhere entices.

This was an excellent tour with a good balance of cultural and historical aspects as well as providing opportunities for shopping and for leisure experiences such as cycling and boat trips. We had a wonderful time.
Burma Unveiled

Despite the conditions under which the people live, I have never been in a country where the people seem so happy, scrupulously honest and optimistic for their future. I felt completely safe in Burma.

"This is my second trip with Peregrine (Everest Base Camp was the last) and will not be my last. In both cases, I could not fault anything and I am fairly fussy! You have a great product, based on employing high quality local guides. Well done."
