Why buy this?
We think this ticket is an absolute gem - you just get so much travel for your money. Start off in the mysterious Far East as you overland between Beijing and Hong Kong before hopping through South East Asia and Australasia. And then as an extra treat, you've got South Africa to explore and a wildlife-rich overland section to Kenya to enjoy. This is just an example of a ticket including Far Eastern destinations... we've got loads more to show you. Just ask!
