Festivals
So much in Asia depends on the calendar. In February in Beijing, more than 20 million people all set off fireworks to celebrate Chinese New Year. In Nagaland in India, tribes from all over the region meet to compete, dance, and celebrate. In Thailand, spectators look on as celebrants perform bizarre rituals at the Nine Emperor Gods Festival.
With an intimate and unique knowledge of Asian culture, Remote Lands knows the importance of experiencing culture the right way. Whether you want an up-close view of the Sing-Sing festival in the Asaro Valley of Papua New Guinea or a quiet walk through the Sapporo Snow Festival in Japan, Remote Lands can give travelers the best possible experience on their celebrations throughout Asia.

One of the most important events on the national calendar, the Sultan’s birthday on July 15th is annually celebrated throughout the country with events and festivities. At the Istana Nurul Iman Palace, the Sultan delivers a royal address, followed by an inauguration ceremony. His Majesty meets with his subjects at gatherings in four districts, expressing their gratitude to the King for his services. The day ends with a banquet and fireworks behind the palace, but festivities continue for two weeks with further parades and fireworks.

What Others Say
Here is a small selection of the kind words our clients have said about us recently.
Couple from Madrid
Our private jet was a very important part of our trip. Most of the legs were less than 30 minutes, compared to six to 10 hours if we traveled by road. Overall, we had a fantastic trip to a new country for us. Remote Lands never fails!
Couple from Nevada - Aman Private Jet Expedition, Spring 2017: Marcela Vanhara
It wasn't our first trip with Remote Lands but again they proved they are the best! Everything ran smoothly from start to finish.
