Vietnam, Sri Lanka, Laos, and Australia play the starring role in Exodus Adventure Travels’ newest 2026 tour range, handpicked for their cultural depth, natural beauty, and growing popularity with responsible travelers. The four destinations symbolize a compelling convergence with international traveling trends favoring the use of small group exploration, cultural immersion, and low-impact traveling. From the cultural heritage and cuisine of Vietnam to Sri Lanka’s wildlife reserves and tea highlands, Laos’s sacred landscapes and river expeditions, and Australia’s seascapes and Indigenous encounters – each trip has been carefully considered to provide life altering experiences. With sustainability, authenticity, and local community at the tour’s core, Exodus is responding to the demand for more profound and meaningful traveling in Asia and Oceania in 2026.
July 10, 2025 – Exodus Adventure Travels has unveiled its 2026 Asia trips, launching a specially selected range of immersive travel experiences throughout Laos, Vietnam, and Sri Lanka. These new trips center on small-group, culture-intensive trips that reflect the trend across Asia towards responsible, authentic tourism.
With long-time expertise in responsible and active travel, the tour operator is furthering its footprint throughout significant Asian destinations. Its 2026 tour compilation mirrors the trend in traveler behavior toward slower, more thoughtful travel—particularly in post-pandemic environments where authenticity, local interaction, and flexible pacing are foremost concerns.
Laos: Immersion in Culture from Vientiane to Luang Prabang
In Laos, the new comfort-paced journey traces a serene path from the capital of Vientiane to the heritage city of Luang Prabang. Along the way, travelers will participate in hands-on cultural experiences, such as artisan craft workshops, temple explorations, and river cruises along the Mekong. The tour has been designed to appeal to mid-market and premium travelers who value immersive cultural exchanges over fast-paced sightseeing.
It caters to the growing trend of slow travel in Southeast Asia, which encourages preservation and accessibility of culture for travelers who want to deeply interact with local communities and customs.
Vietnam: A Wealth of Cultural Marvels, Outdoors Excursions, and Flavors that have a Story to It
The Vietnam itinerary is designed to capture the country’s diverse charm—from its historic towns and rural landscapes to its bustling cities and renowned cuisine. Travelers can expect a comprehensive north-to-south experience, including:
- Guided cycling trips in the countryside
- Excursions to historically and architecturally relevant sites, such as UNESCO-honoured Hoi An
- Culinary excursions to sample authentic regional dishes
- A one-night cruise in Halong Bay
This blend of soft adventure, history, and culinary travel speaks to the travel interests of travelers in regional markets (e.g., South Korea and Japan) and long-haul markets (e.g., Europe and Australia) alike.
Sri Lanka: Wildlife, Wellness, and Scenic Exploration
Sri Lanka’s itinerary includes a perfect mix of natural marvels, cultural treasures, and beach relaxation, including highlights such as:
- Sacred city of Kandy
- Tea plantations in the central highlands
- Yala National Park wildlife safaris
- Coastal relaxation along Sri Lanka’s pristine shores
A trip that caters to all ages, it’s highly attractive to travelers who are looking at multi-theme vacations that incorporate discovery, spa, and time spent connected to nature. Scenic variety and year-round suitability make Sri Lanka highly appealing to repeat travelers and newcomers alike.
A Regional Strategy Founded on Responsible Travel
Under this initiative, Exodus Adventure Travels aims to grow cautiously in Asia while encouraging low-impact, high-value tourism. Small groups are used for each tour, which are guided by local specialists, always maintaining authenticity and quality service delivery. This helps improve guest satisfaction and encourages community-based tourism paradigms that yield revenue and conserve culture.
The company’s alignment with sustainability goals, including its global B Corp certification, makes it a strategic fit for regional stakeholders, tourism boards, and destination management companies aiming to grow responsibly.
Meeting the Needs of Tour Operators and Travel Consultants
2026 Asia collection holds great potential for travel advisors and tour operators who are looking for:
- Reliable tour inventory with high guest satisfaction
- Well-structured, experience-rich itineraries
- Partnerships with an established, globally respected travel brand
- Entry to new markets beyond the circuits of mass tourism
By targeting more secondary cities and off-the-beaten-path areas, the company is contributing to responsible tourism growth and delivering travelers unique and novel experiences.
A New Chapter in Experiential Travel Across Asia
With its 2026 Asia tours, Exodus Adventure Travels reconfirms its dedication to providing thoughtful, transformative travel that rises above mass tourism. The new trips are designed to fulfill the contemporary traveler’s longing for authenticity, bonding, and sustainability—all while revealing Vietnam, Laos, and Sri Lanka’s rich culture and natural treasures.
