Asia Heats Up for Spring Travel

BOULDER, CO--(Marketwired - Mar 3, 2015) - While Asia is an idyllic travel destination any time of year, springtime in Asia offers a certain magic that is unmatched by any other season. Warm climate, blooming landscapes, and a feeling of renewal makes a trip to Asia rejuvenating and exciting. Whether you are planning a spring-break trip with your kids, starting the season with a luxurious getaway or seeking a unique and immersive culture experience, Asia has it all in spades. Asia Transpacific Journeys, a luxury tour operator based out of Boulder, Colorado, has built a reputation on extremely personalized and unique voyages for their travelers. From organizing air travel, to arranging a dinner atop lush mountains, no request is too big or too small.

This spring, Asia Transpacific Journeys is turning its attention to Southeast Asia, due to the exotic landscapes and rich culture that shines through the spring season. Indonesia, in particular, is a favorite for Asia Transpacific Journeys' spring travelers. The island of Bali is a must-see -- a paradise imbued with spiritual potency and home to some of Southeast Asia's most remarkable artists and artisans. Imagine touring mysterious temples and quaint villages, visiting artists' studios, or relaxing in peaceful villas with private pools, endless amenities, and unbeatable rice terrace views. Or, perhaps, one might be keen on a sea voyage. Asia Transpacific Journeys will happily arrange for a deluxe private charter, staffed with a full crew and personal chef. Stop at your whim at small islands that each sport unique landscapes and cultures -- perhaps a gently smoldering volcano, a sleepy native harbor bustling with traditional fishing craft or a peaceful bay with beautiful snorkeling.

Given that spring travel is popular with families away on spring break with their children, Indonesia likewise makes for a captivating and family-friendly destination. Being a complex amalgam of languages, religions, and customs, Indonesia is a rich repository of fascinating cultures. This makes Indonesia not only a vacation, but a learning experience more compelling and informational than any class or textbook. Interested in wildlife? Visit Camp Leakey on Kalimantan (Indonesian Borneo) to see wild orangutans, among humans' closest relatives. Or, perhaps, you long to give your children some worldly perspective. Asia Transpacific Journeys can arrange for your family to drop by a local school with a donation of school supplies. Your children can interact with students their own age, swapping language lessons, teaching each other new skills, or doing what kids do best -- playing.

Japan, like Indonesia, is a magical springtime destination. During its sakura (cherry blossom) season, from mid-March through early May, you will find the country blanketed with pink flowers. Nothing says Japan in springtime more than visiting Lake Kawaguchi at the foot of Mt. Fuji for stunning views of the mountain and the cherry blossoms. Cape Ubuyagasaki on the eastern shore of the lake is particularly famous for its spectacular blooming trees and unbeatable views. Through sakura season, Japan is rife with celebrations and festivals in honor of the blossoming trees, which represent renewal and rebirth.

From the foothills of Mount Yoshino to the island of Bali, Asia Transpacific Journeys' primary passion is providing travelers with fulfilling and memorable journeys to rare and exotic locations.
