READ MORE   SACRED MT KAILASH

Sacrosanct to four religions and one of the most revered natural wonders in all of Asia, Mt Kailash so sacred, it’s said, that it has never been climbed. Embark on a thrilling three-day kora, or spiritual circumambulation, around the base of Mt Kailash, covering nearly 33 miles while staying in simple but comfortable private camps. This is one of the most extreme devotional pilgrimages in the world.

Suggested Itinerary: Trekking in Tibet: Mt. Kailash and Lake Mansarovar

PAMIR HIGHWAY ROAD TRIP

Under the bright stars of the empty skies, explore Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan on the ultimate adventure on Central Asia's most scenic drive. With sheer cliffs and white-knuckle turns on the rugged border with Afghanistan, the Pamir Highway will take you from Tajikistan's capital city of Dushanbe to Kyrgyzstan's Bishkek through the spectacular Pamir Mountains on a journey of discovery.

PNG: THE WAR UNDER THE OCEAN

Japanese Zeroes, 15-ton 97 Chi-Ha tanks, and forgotten WWII shipwrecks dot the clear, mysterious waters around Papua New Guinea, making it one of the world's most exciting diving destinations. PNG is one of the least visited and most under-the-radar destinations in Asia — unique in culture, landscape, and wildlife from its Southeast Asian neighbors. Meet the Asaro Mudmen and the Baining fire dancers at a sing-sing on a journey through the hundreds of unique traditions and languages of Asia's most fascinating tribal haven.

At the mercy of the unforgiving wilds of Gunung Mulu National Park in Sarawak, Malaysia, travelers undertake a rewarding quest through equatorial rainforest to otherworldly karst formations and caves, along the way admiring the Orangutans, Proboscis Monkeys, Birds of Paradise and other exotic wildlife that have made Borneo a world famous nature destination.
