TOUR EAST HOLIDAYS INTRODUCES FIRST LUXURY COLLECTION PROGRAM TO VIETNAM, LAOS AND CAMBODIA

TORONTO - Luxury travel is better than ever, thanks to Tour East Holidays.

North America's leader in 5-star vacations to Asia and beyond today announced its first offering in its new Luxury Collection Program - a 19-day Best of Indochina extravaganza that features the best of everything.

The 19-day Best of Indochina tour includes stops in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos and features stays at the best hotels and resorts in each of those exciting destinations.

This is white glove treatment at its best.

In Vietnam, you'll experience the excitement of its capital Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City (formerly Saigon) and stay at 5-star luxury properties (the InterContinental in Hanoi and the Park Hyatt in Saigon).

You'll also be treated to dinners and lunches at some of the finest restaurants and enjoy regional delicacies that have become favorites the world over.

In Hanoi, you'll tour the city's beautiful Lake District, it's French quarter and Old City, where ancient life is still played out daily on narrow streets that have changed little over the centuries.

In colonial Saigon, where French history and architecture still have great influence, you'll tour local museums and its beautiful Opera House, and venture outside to visit the infamous Cu Chi tunnels, which played such a major role in the Vietnam War with the United States of America and earlier France.

While also in Vietnam, you'll travel by luxury coach from Hanoi to Halong Bay and take a 5-star, 2-night cruise aboard the beautiful Bhaya Cruise around the UNESCO World Heritage Site whose thousands of magical islands have lured people there for centuries.

The ancient trading town of Hoi An is also on your Vietnam agenda and a stay at the brand new 5-star Nam Hai Hotel on world famous China Beach, not far from the 400-year-old town's city centre, where you can purchase made-to-measure suits and dresses that are handmade for you in a matter of hours.

While in Laos, you'll visit the historic city of Luang Prabang and stay at the super luxurious La Résidence Phou Vao - an Orient Express Resort where you can learn how to cook local delicacies under the guidance of experienced chefs. Then tour the ancient town filled with historic temples and where thousands of monks still reside today. Enjoy a boat tour on the Mekong River and visit ancient caves and local villages where life has changed little over the centuries.

Cambodia and the magnificent temples of Siem Reap await, as does the 5-star luxury of the historic Raffles Hotel, where you'll be treated royally. While in Siem Reap, you'll visit Angkor Wat and all the other fabulous stone icons that make this city one of the most fabled in history.

Your luxury trip ends with a one-night stay in Bangkok before heading home with memories that will last a lifetime.

Tour East Holidays' Luxury Collection Programs offer the most 5-star trappings in the industry but are priced so everyone can enjoy how the other half lives.

This 19-day Best of Indochina extravaganza departs November 3, 2008 and returns November 21, 2008 costing $6,800 per person from New York ($6,750 from Los Angeles or San Francisco and $7,050 from Chicago) and includes airfare, 5-star accommodation throughout, all meals at fine dining establishments in each stop, all gratuities, 5-star cruise on Halong Bay, English-speaking tour guides, tour director from point of departure, sightseeing, and much, much more.
