Cox & Kings Launches New Cultural Excursions Across Asia
June 28, 2012
Each itinerary offers its own in-depth glance into ancient traditions and mythical legends with stunning backdrops ranging from lush, green rainforests to desolate, yet stunning deserts.
These new journeys follow in the Cox & Kings tradition of providing travelers with authentic, hands-on cultural experiences. Whether fashioning a blow-dart for hunting in Borneo or spending the evening in the midst of nomadic herders along Mongolian steppes, travelers have the opportunity to dive into the enriching depths of each specific region. In Cox & Kings' spirit of exploration, these experiences often traverse a path less-traveled, but never compromise on style and comfort.
A sampling of the new Asia & The Pacific journeys by Cox & Kings includes:
• Legendary Trans-Siberian Railroad (pictured): Beijing to Moscow
(16 Days, 15 Nights) – Travelers begin their journey in the midst of China's hustle and bustle, touring the great temples, squares and Great Wall that make Beijing a world-renowned destination. The journey takes a turn onto a path less-traveled as travelers depart via private train into the expanses of the Gobi desert en route to the Mongolian capital of Ulaanbaatar where local delicacies and traditional performances wait at your beck and call. The journey continues into the depths of Siberia as the window scenes change from desert into woodlands while dark bread, vodka and Russian caviar fill the souls (and stomachs) of travelers. Prices begin at U.S. $8,900 per person, based on double occupancy.
• Borneo: Summer Family Adventure
(10 Days, 9 Nights) – Explore a tropical paradise brimming with flourishing jungles, captivating legends and unique tradition, where every turn provides a completely new experience, offering hands-on encounters worlds apart from any other destination. Travelers trek the wild recesses of this tropical paradise as they traverse among the soaring lush canopies of one of the world's most ancient rainforests for a sky-high forest tour. Back on the ground, waterfalls, orangutans and pygmy elephants tickle the senses of travelers young and old. Bespoke encounters with local tribespeople in the cultural village of Mari Mari take families back in time to the days of the headhunters, offering lessons on how to make fire from bamboo and the best way to fashion a blow-dart for hunting. Pricing TBA.
• Mongolia's Legendary Gobi
(7 Days, 6 Nights) – A forlorn land and its unique and magnificent heritage await, where expansive deserts stretch into the horizon and nomadic traditions resonate through time. This journey follows the ancient path of the great Silk Road and onto a land dotted with nomadic herders, strange wildlife and peculiar rock formations. Breathtaking vistas surround each footstep while stylish “yurt” camps in the midst of the wilds welcome travelers to savor the spoils of the land. Prices begin at U.S. $4,125 per person, based on double occupancy.
