Explorient launches new and exciting tours to Malaysia

STAMFORD, Conn. - Feb. 28, 2014 - PRLog -- Stamford, Conn.: Explorient Travel Services, Inc., a leading tour operator that develops and delivers high-end tours and vacation packages throughout the Asia and the Pacific Rim, will be launching a new and exciting array of tour products to Malaysia. In partnership with Malaysia Tourism Promotion Board’s “Visit Malaysia Year” campaign, Explorient plans to heavily promote this Southeast Asia destination in 2014 by creating and marketing a variety of travel packages that highlight Malaysia’s key tourism assets.

Consistent with Explorient’s tour offerings throughout Asia, these Malaysia packages will be private tours featuring a mixture of luxury, eco-adventure and family-oriented itineraries that can cater to a variety of interests. For example, the newly launched “Malaysia Family Spectacular’ encapsulates much of what Malaysia is all about – deep rooted heritage, unspoiled nature, and amazing wildlife featuring visits to Malacca, Sepilok Orang-utan Sanctuary, Turtle Island to observe and release hatching baby turtles, and Kota Kinabalu’s beautiful beaches. Other new Malaysia products worth noting are the “Malaysia Romance” package that features luxury over-the-water bungalows at Pangkor Laut, the “Longhouse Safari” that offers a glimpse into the Iban Tribal culture and timeless traditions, and the 7-night “Ultimate Borneo Adventure” that ventures deep into the world’s oldest rainforest that boasts rare species of wildlife and fauna. Like all of Explorient’s private tours, custom and tailor-made itineraries are also available upon request to suit each individual’s interests and requirements.

To date, at least in America, Malaysia usually isn’t at the top of the list for those considering traveling to Asia. Malaysia’s “Borneo” is perhaps the only well known destination that comes to mind for the typical vacation planner. But unbeknownst to most, Malaysia boasts some of the most diverse and exotic travel experiences on our planet. “Malaysia is such an amazing country - unfortunately, most of us here in North America don’t know much about it. Malaysia has just about everything to offer to the visitor – beautiful beaches, exotic culture, unspoiled nature, fantastic wildlife, amazing food…you name it. Malaysia has it. It is our goal to open the curtains and let America see what this wonderful place has to offer. We’re committed to see to it that it happens.”, said Donald Yu, Founder and President of Explorient.

Given the current political situation in Thailand, travelers interested in visiting Southeast Asia have begun seeking alternative destinations. While Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos have quickly risen as the Thailand alternative from a cultural standpoint, Malaysia is very safe and possesses some very unique travel experiences as well as Southeast Asia’s best beaches for those looking to inject some R & R into their trip.  “I firmly believe there is a huge upside in Malaysia travel. Combining Malaysia Tourism Promotion Board’s massive marketing engine for creating overall destination awareness with Explorient’s long standing track record of delivering unique and high quality tour products, we hope to finally put Malaysia on the map as a world class travel destination for North Americans.”, said Kervin Yu, Vice President Sales & Marketing.

For the remainder of 2014 and through 2015, Explorient plans to aggressively expand their Malaysia product portfolio to help stimulate demand. Please refer to the company’s Malaysia page for a complete listing of Malaysia tour packages: http://www.explorient.com/malaysia.
