Asia travel with Topdeck

Maybe you’ve done the Europe-thing and want to delve deeper into a new and exotic destination. Maybe you’re obsessed with Japan’s one-of-a-kind culture; mesmerised by Bali’s island paradise or totally intrigued by Cambodia and went ‘sh*t, that looks good’. The point is, our Asia trips give you more free time to do what YOU want to do. More opportunities to head off the tourist trail with a local Trip Leader. More awesome inclusions to immerse yourself in unique cultures and ancient traditions. More getting lost in the moment. Just, more.

Japan been your #1 for a while? This is your chance. From Tokyo to Kyoto, our Japan trips feat. jam-packed days of stuffing your face, exploring the ultra-modern and uncovering ancient traditions – not to mention all the weird, whacky and totally wonderful in between (Robot Restaurant, anyone?).

Bali = idyllic. Southeast Asia’s all-star is more than picture-perfect beaches and fruity cocktails (although, there’s plenty of both). From summit sunrises from magnificent Mount Batur, to sunsets over Gili Island paradise – our Bali Island Hopper is the gold standard of Asia holidays.

Itching to explore Cambodia and Vietnam? From the French colonial buildings of Hanoi to the picture-perfect beaches of Koh Rong – these are two of the most slap-you-in-the-face-unbelievable Southeast Asian countries you’ll ever experience. Trust us.

Things to do in Asia

 A woman on a boat in Halong Bay

An unforgettable Halong Bay cruise

Glittering emerald waters. Towering limestone cliffs. Tiny islands topped with tropical forests. Hidden caves waiting to be explored. There’s a reason they call Halong Bay the ‘jewel in Vietnam’s crown’. Venture from Hanoi to Halong Bay on day three of our Vietnam & Cambodia Explorer trip, and prepare for an overnight junk boat cruise to remember. We’re talking: plenty of swim stops in bluer-than-blue water, free time to kayak between hidden grottos and sandy beaches, soaking in our very own outdoor jacuzzi, saluting the sun with yoga on the upper deck and dancing into the sunset with a bunch of people just as stoked to be here as you are. This isn’t your standard Halong Bay cruise. This is your once-in-a-lifetime memory-maker.

Vietnam & Cambodia: Noodles & Night Markets
A group out eating at a traditional Japanese restaurant

Explore Tokyo in-depth

Fascinating culture. Delicious food. And plenty of weird, whacky and wonderful top sights. There’s no better place to kick start your once-in-a-lifetime Japanese adventure than Tokyo. From exploring the mesmerising Sensō-ji Temple and quirky Akihabara district on an included city tour with your expert Trip Leader; to walking the famous Shibuya Crossing and visiting the incredible Meiji Shrine – you won’t be short of things to do in Tokyo. Mingle with the locals over sake. Put your tastebuds to the test along Omoide Yokocho (aka Piss Alley, don’t ask). Catch a show at the futuristic Robot Restaurant. Fan girl/boy over Mickey Mouse at Tokyo Disneyland. And gaze upon the snow-capped peaks and gleaming lakes of Mount Fuji. Whatever your thing, we’ve got Tokyo covered. Trust us.

Japan: Sushi & Shrines

Real passion

On the road or at home, we L-O-V-E what we do. No lie – we put our first, our last, our EVERYTHING into creating trips that’ll set your soul on fire. Itineraries with room to leave the tourist trail behind. More time to immerse yourself in the new and exotic. The BEST bases for your explorations. And don’t get us started on the amazing AF activities we’ve dug up for you. Think: desert camp stays, the A-list sites (done differently), underwater discoveries and lesser-known gems. And if you need some local tips, we’ve got your back. From Japan to Bali, each and every Asia trip is supercharged by local Trip Leaders who don’t just lead; who inspire. Who are ready to make your world come alive, and were born to do it.

Japan

Day trips to the magnificent Mount Fuji. Overnight stays in a traditional ryokan. Stretching those waistbands in Osaka. Visiting historic Hiroshima. Getting starkers at a local onsen in Takayama. And exploring more awe-inspiring Shinto temples than you can poke a chopstick at. Japan is waiting.

Vietnam

Relax aboard a traditional junk boat in Halong Bay. Sip on egg coffee amongst the French colonial buildings of Hanoi. Soak up the lantern-filled magic of Hoi An. Then: explore the bubbling pot of energy that is Ho Chi Minh City. Vietnam = unforgettable.

Cambodia

It's temple time. From the sprawling ancient stone temples of Ankor Wat to the history-filled streets of Phnom Penh, not to mention the postcard-perfect beaches of Koh Rong - it's time to embrace it all on an unforgettable trip through Cambodia.
