Signature Small Group Tours in Asia

Explore

An itinerary curated by an expert is really the only way to see Asia, particularly one that’s got added special Signature experiences, carefully chosen by Riviera Travel.

So what does a Signature tour to Asia entail? It’s all of the highlights of the countries we visit, but with extra inclusions to take your holiday up a level. Maybe India is calling your name, with the chance to see Tigers in Ranthambore, led by an expert naturalist? Or perhaps you prefer your wildlife a little fluffier, and you’d rather see very cute, very elusive pandas in Chengdu? Or if it’s culture you prefer, you can’t beat a high tea at the acclaimed Grand Hotel in Nuwara Eliya, Sri Lanka; or a visit to a Khmer temple for a traditional blessing from a Buddhist monk, on our Vietnam and Cambodia tour. 

If that wasn’t tantalising enough, Signature Tours also have an average group size 22 people, so you’ve got a more intimate experience as you explore and you can get to know your guide and fellow travellers better. 

Rajasthan, the Taj Mahal and Amritsar’s Golden Temple

Signature experience: Relax aboard a private boat for a sunset cruise across the shimmering waters of Lake Pichola and dine on classic Rajasthani cuisine in the elegant surroundings of an historic palace hotel.

Customer review: “The whole trip was fabulous, every day was a school day, we learnt so much about the places we were visiting as well as India - so much more to a holiday than sightseeing.”
