EXPLORE ASIA

Asia

From neon-lit cities to temple towns and island beaches, Asia packs more variety into a single trip than almost anywhere. Start with a country below.

Why visit Asia

Asia rewards both first-time travelers and people on their tenth trip. You can wander Kyoto’s old streets in the morning, eat your way through a Bangkok night market, and be on a beach in Bali a few days later. The distances are real, so most people pick one or two countries per trip rather than trying to see everything at once.

Each country below links to its own guide, where we cover the cities worth your time, when to go, and how to move between them. Use these pages to shape a route that matches how you like to travel.

Frequently asked questions

 

When is the best time to visit Asia?
It depends on the region. East Asia such as Japan and Korea is pleasant in spring and autumn. Southeast Asia such as Thailand, Vietnam and Indonesia is driest from roughly November to March. Check each country guide for specifics.
How many countries can I visit in one trip?
For a two to three week trip, one or two neighboring countries is comfortable. Combining far-apart places like Japan and Bali in ten days means spending much of that time in transit.
Do I need a visa to travel in Asia?
Rules vary by country and passport. Many places offer visa-free entry or visa-on-arrival for short stays, while others require applying in advance. Always confirm with the official source before you book.
