Xi’an
During our trip around China, we spent three days in Xi'an. Thanks to our wonderful guide, Susan, who took us to visit the most beautiful places, explaining additional details about the dynasties. We especially enjoyed the Terracotta Warriors, where we had the chance to create one at a local workshop. Susan was very attentive; she tried to find a restaurant where everyone was happy with the food and found a pizza for our little son. She even made a gift for our daughter—a beautiful hairpin. Very positive experience! More

Chengdu and surrounding area tours
Our guide Helen was the complete package. She guided us every step with deep knowledge and energy. But, that's not all. She bought us snacks for the optional kungfu show. She helped us check into every hotel and inspected our room to ensure it was perfect. She translated at every need. She even bought a bamboo stick to help us ward off some aggressive monkeys. We had 4 lovely days with Helen and our excellent driver, Mr. Wu. Highly recommended! More

Like a dream come true, but better
The experience itself was above and beyond what was described. The driver and vehicle was spotless and on time, the lantern festival and seats were like something from a wonderful dream. The lesson to make kratong and the dinner after were perfect. This whole experience has been a dream come true and I cannot recommend it enough. More

Excellent Siem Reap tour guide
He shared his vast knowledge about the Angkor temples, the Cambodian culture, the Khmer people, and the Khmer spirituality, in both historical and modern times. I appreciated how he connected Cambodia with other countries in Southeast Asia, as I had visited these countries prior to Sam's excellent tour. More

Everything worked very well
Everything worked very well, for the second time I used Asia Highlights' service, and I'm already planning the third time, I have to praise the attention given by Sharon and Amir, who went beyond the professional service, during the trip, my wife Teresa had to carrying out a surgical procedure in India, and Sharon and Amir were tireless so that we could have peace of mind during that urgent moment. We would like to express our gratitude to these two professionals, and see you soon. More

Our guide Chhong was amazing
Our guide Chhong was more than knowledgeable about the many temples of Siemens Reap, he was passionate about them. My wife and him talked on and on about the myths, stories and Gods that adored the many temples. He knew so much about Cambodian history that it a pleasure to have him accompany us. His driver Jack knew how to pick us up at secret locations to shorten the walking (it was still a lot these temples are huge). We had a marvelous time and I’m definitely going to return as there are still so many things for Chhong to show us. More

Itinerary Details
The itinerary below is only a typical sample and you may alter any aspect of it. Tell us your needs and our travel advisors will tailor-make it to meet your requirements.
Meals provided: lunch
First, we would leave Cappadocia and head east, through Kayseri, where you could see a well-preserved staging post on the ancient Silk Road called Seljuk Caravanserai.
Also en route are Pinarbasi, a small town famous for its spring water; Tekir, where photographers love to take pictures of the stunning valley scenery; and Kahramanmaraş, hometown of the well-known Turkish ice-cream.
Finally, you would arrive at Kahta, where you could check in and freshen up at your hotel, then take a bus to the base of the footpath, climb Mount Nemrut, and enjoy its glorious sunset.
Mount Nemrut, located in the east of Turkey and rising to 2,150 meters (7,050 feet) of altitude, has the highest open-air museum in the world. You would see a number of huge statues erected around what is assumed to be the royal tomb of King Antiochus I of the 1st century BC.
Meals provided: breakfast and lunch
Get up early if you would like to witness a spectacular sunrise. Enjoy a stroll, nothing too strenuous, and wonder how the giant stone carvings could be formed on the top of the mountain. Have impressive photos taken there, which you could treasure with your memories.
Then, head back to your hotel, have a late breakfast, and pack for your journey back to Cappadocia.
A visit to the ruins of Arsameia, once the capital of the Commagene civilization almost 2,500 years ago, as well as the ancient Roman Cendere Bridge, which is still used today, would be arranged on the way.
Your historical journey would end in Cappadocia in the evening of the day. We hope this trip will allow you to make enviable and indelible memories.
