Welcome to All Points East
All Points East is an independent, fully licensed, UK based travel company offering adventure tours, holidays and vacations to Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Malaysia (including Borneo), Brunei and China.
Our holidays, both scheduled tours and tailor-made itineraries, appeal to those wishing to discover the real South East Asia; singles, couples, families - old and young - anyone with a sense of adventure!
For schedules and prices check the relevant tour page and for 'last minute' holiday departures and adventure tours to Asia check out our late availability section, which has up to date tour details on all our last minute adventure holidays to Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Malaysia, Brunei and China.
In depth knowledge of the Indochina region enables us to offer original itineraries with a balance between the region's better known 'must-sees' and it’s off-the-beaten-track, 'well kept secrets'.
All Points East tours will provide a real insight into the countries you are visiting - culture, history, landscape and natural world - and allow opportunities for genuine interaction with the local people and communities.
As much as possible on our adventure trips we will stay in smaller, family-run accommodation, eat in local restaurants and use local style transport. In addition all guides and agencies used are considered friends rather than 'business contacts'. The idea being that you will visit Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, China, Brunei, and Malaysia as guests rather than as tourists.
Respect for local people, their cultures, traditions, religions and environment are essential to All Points East philosophy, and we work hard to ensure our groups have a positive impact on the places and people visited. |

ALL POINTS EAST
Welcome to our new name and welcome to our new website. After 10 years, we thought it was time for change and wanted a new identity which reflects our unique tours and our personal style.
We would like to emphasise to customers old and new, that the change is in order to enhance what we do and is not a change in the way we do things. Our management, excellent staff, and all those tour leaders you rave about, remain exactly the same and our tours will operate in a similarly highly personal and off-the-beaten-track format in which we have delivered them for the past 10 years.

NEW TOURS
Due to changes in local transport infrastructures etc and customer suggestions we have tweaked/fine-tuned many of our existing itineraries for 2010. Places change; some become just too popular whilst other remoter destinations are opened up with new roads and so-on. We have also added shorter versions of many of our most popular tours to cater to those with less time to spend. If tour lengths do not correspond to your time-frame please consult out office staff for alternatives.
No new trips have been finialized for the upcoming year, since our Borneo/Sarawak trip below, but we are looking at Bali/Lombok so if that tempts you please give the office a nudge!
"Sarawak; Land of the Hornbills." - Following on from our highly succesfull tour of Sabah we're pleased to be able to extend our Borneo coverage for 2009 with a new itinerary covering Brunei and Sarawak State. Conceived as either a 12 day tour or a 10 day add on to our Sabah tour this trip includes, amongst many highlights, a night in an Iban longhouse, a visit to the largest caves in the world at fabulous Mulu National Park and crocodile and dolphin spotting in the mangrove swamps of the Sarawak River estuary. Look out for the new web page or ask our office for details.
