All Experience Travel Group (ETG) Classic Holidays are designed to immerse you in the most magical parts of Asia.

Forget skimming the surface or staying in could-be-anywhere hotels. With us, you’ll delve deeper than the standard tour or so-called ‘tailor-made’ trip – soaking up unique cultural insights, exploring scenic spots far from the crowds, interacting with different communities, and staying in characterful hotels.

ETG’s Classic Holidays are made for curious travellers looking to balance discovery with downtime and those celebrating milestones.

With our insider knowledge and long-standing local connections, we unlock exclusive experiences across Asia that most travellers can only dream of.

And best of all? We take the planning faff off your plate and free you from decision fatigue.

Explore Our Classic Sample Itineraries

Our thoughtfully designed itineraries ensure you experience the real highlights of your destination, while weaving in unusual moments to make your holiday special. Maybe you’ll see Sigiriya in all her glory and explore her quiet surroundings most travellers miss, spot creatures big and small in the jungle, wander through incense-filled temples, or sleep in a riverside lodge.

As ever, our Travel Team will shape any sample itinerary into your bespoke package.

The ultimate family holiday with teenagers!

It is so hard to describe as it was all so wonderful, from the elephants strolling past our Tree Top accommodation, watching turtle hatch and lay eggs, learning all about tea, culture and history to staying the most incredible places - all so different, some completely open and in the nature, others on old tea plantation with incredible views or small boutique hotels overlooking the crashing waves.....from incredible hikes, cycle rides, white water rafting, climbing ancient rocks, swimming in lakes and water falls, canyoning, to wandering around markets, temples or just reading a book in the hammock in the heat of the day. Foods was outstanding - all places had amazing cooks, local produce and local food - and just delicious and so much variety - never eaten so healthily on holiday ! and catered for my vegetarian daughter. So friendly where ever we went, the best driver who looked after us so well for 18 days and just wonderful, wonderful memories. Thank you to everyone who just made our dreams come true - from and a Mum with 19 year twins..we had the most precious fun family time together.

Sri Lanka Family Trip

We had 2 wonderful weeks in Sri Lanka with a 6 and 9 year old. The whole trip was exceptional and was just a very special and memorable trip full of experiences that we feel very grateful to have been a part of. ETG really made it so easy - it was our first long haul trip with the kids and I was worried about it but I should have because it was amazing and we were so well looked after. Loved every second, wish we could do it all over again!

A fabulous, varied wildlife experience in Sri Lanka

We stayed in beautiful unique places and had so many fabulous experiences from many monkey and elephant encounters, seeing leopards on safari, zip wires in the tea country and learning to surf in the south.

Sublime travel around Rajasthan

A fabulous trip arranged through Experience Travel. 16 nights across Jodhphur, Rohat, Udaipur and Mumbai. Everything was perfect from the pick ups and transfers, the hotels and myriad activities and visits.

Sri Lanka with Experience Travel Company

We loved Sri Lanka, the friendly people, beautiful scenery and so much wildlife. We travelled as a family and the boys loved spotting elephants, monkeys, crocodiles, water and land monitors and so many birds and lizards! It was the perfect mix of activity and culture with some relaxation. A real adventure!

Outstanding private tour of Sri Lanka for solo parent and toddler

A 3 week private tour around Sri Lanka for solo parent and 2.5yo toddler. Every detail was so well planned and considered that all we needed to do was turn up and enjoy - and enjoy we most certainly did! The itinerary had been specifically crafted to consider the toddler but also ensure enough culture and parent focused items. A brilliant balance. Good communication with the local team in advance about items such as car seats, meaning a smooth arrival process when we landed.
