Contiki has announced its latest trip launch in Asia, including "Borneo Adventure," "Philippines Island Hopping East," "China Adventure" and "Eternal India Express."
The brand's very first trip to the Malaysian part of Borneo is well-suited for wildlife lovers, as travelers will have the chance to see unique wildlife—orangutans, pygmy elephants, sun bears, proboscis monkeys and more—only found in this part of the planet. The nine-day trip visits the famous Bako National Park and spends a day on the Selingan Turtle Island where travelers can witness the rare sight of turtles laying eggs on the beach. The trip also includes a cruise over the Kinabatangan River for even more wildlife watching.
More young travelers now want to visit destinations where they can see wildlife in their natural habitat, and where they are taken care of ethically. In a recent survey conducted by Contiki, 27 percent of travelers aged 18 to 35 said that they actively seek out sustainable travel experiences from sustainable brands. By visiting sanctuaries for endangered animals like orangutans and sun bears, the trip also contributes to the advancement of U.N. Sustainability Goal Number 15: Life on Land.
After its launch in early 2024, Contiki’s "Philippines Island Hopping" has already locked a high number of bookings. Taking this demand into consideration, the brand has now announced another trip that visits four new islands in the eastern part of the Philippines. Additionally, travelers who want to cover both the eastern and western parts of the Philippines, can now choose to book the 22-day "Ultimate Philippines Island Hopping" trip for the full experience. Kicking off in Cebu City, travelers will have the chance to see dolphins in the wild, and even witness a sardine run (a rare mass migration that happens in very few places in the world) on a snorkeling adventure. Travelers will also get to dine on an authentic Filipino eight-course meal in Bohol. The trip includes flights and boat transfers between islands.
Contiki has reintroduced its previously popular trip, "China Adventure." The 12-day trip is a great option for travelers who find it difficult to navigate the country due to language barriers and its vast size, and hence prefer a planned group tour. Travelers will get the chance to tour Beijing with a local guide, see Xi’An’s terracotta warriors, sample street eats, visit a panda sanctuary, of course, see the Great Wall of China.
Contiki’s new trip, "Eternal India Express" is a great option for travelers who want to tick off India’s hotspots on a budget, and in just over a week. The trip visits Delhi, Agra, Udaipur, Jaipur and Ranthambore. Travelers will get entry tickets to the Taj Mahal, go on a tiger safari in Ranthambore, and even tour Old Delhi’s streets on a tuk tuk.
