real travel made simple

Travelling to Asia can

be a once-in-a-lifetime

experience, and Hong

Kong and Thailand’s

joint 2Cultures onetrip

initiative means these

two incredibly rich and

diverse destinations

are ready and waiting

to welcome tourists.

I

n our humble opinion, a holiday in Asia

should be on every Canadian’s list of

dream trips to take. The opportunity

to immerse oneself in another culture,

with all the tradition, food and sights it has

to offer, is one of the chief reasons to travel,

after all, and Hong Kong and Thailand—two

of Asia’s top tourist destinations—provide

that experience in spades. From incredible

luxury shops and world-class street food to

unforgettable historic sights and bustling

city centres, Hong Kong and Thailand both

excel at offering a well-rounded vacation

that will have you yearning for a repeat

performance. Here, we scratch the surface

and offer five highlights of these two

unbeatable ports of call.
