Our story began in 1998 with China Highlights, then expanded through Asia Highlights in 2015. In 2025, we brought everything together under one name: Highlights Travel. Today, we continue that legacy, crafting private, tailor-made trips across China, Japan, Southeast and South Asia.
We believe travel isn't just about seeing new places — it's about meaningful encounters, shared stories, and a deeper sense of connection. Our expert travel designers work one-on-one with every traveler, while trusted local hosts unlock personal, authentic experiences.
With over 10,000 reviews and a 98.8% 5-star rating on platforms like TripAdvisor and Trustpilot, our travelers return with more than memories — they return with insight, inspiration, and often, lifelong connections.
Our current journeys on this site focus on Southeast and South Asia, where vibrant cultures and meaningful moments await. Interested in China or Japan? Discover more curated journeys at China Highlights and Japan Highlights — part of the Highlights Travel family.
