But staying true to the Back-Roads ethos, the tour operator has said it will continue to emphasise and promote travel to, and exploration of, lesser-known areas.
Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam all feature across a diverse range of tours - its “most exciting progression yet” - running from five days to 13 days.
All eight tours will showcase region cuisine, ancient attractions and “one-of-a-kind” experience Back-Roads says are usually only practical for locals.
Daryl Raven, Back-Roads touring general manager, said he was thrilled to bring the operator’s Asia offering to the market, and was looking forward to forging even closer ties with the trade.
