Cruise and rail holidays in Asia
Asia’s charms are impossibly diverse. One moment you could be taking in jungle-shrouded temple cities along the waterways of Myanmar or Cambodia and the next sweeping between Japan’s skyscraping neon on a bullet train. India, too, excites with ultra-luxury rail journeys and the chance to head off the beaten track with rivers lined by tigers and floating villages.
