There is no better spiritual reward than leaving a place better than one finds it. In many places throughout Asia, the people and ecology are under threat, and to the right visitor this is an opportunity to do something good. Whether it’s staying in eco-friendly accommodations in Bhutan, support community-led conservation in Laos, or meeting landmine-sniffing rats in Cambodia, Asia is full of opportunities for travelers to contribute to the sustainable legacy of the continent. With Remote Lands, visitors can engage in sustainable travel and make the world a better place on their holiday. So much of travel can take, traveling responsibly is a way to give back.

Here is a small selection of the kind words our clients have said about us recently.
We would really like to thank the team at Remote Lands for organizing such a perfect holiday for our family
Thank you for putting together such an inspiring trip through Indonesia. We used two different charter boats and, for one leg of the journey, a private charter flight and all were of extremely high quality.
The guides they selected were very good and, in three cases (Seoul, Hoi An/Hue, and Angkor Wat) simply outstanding.
