1. China.
For the off-the-beaten-trackers… 
Without wanting to state the obvious entirely, The Great Wall of China is one to add (and most definitely tick off) your bucket list of places to visit. However, not content with simply showing you around – on a Dragon Trip to The Great Wall, you’ll camp overnight next to this UNESCO World Heritage site for a truly off-the-beaten-track experience.
Hike to a secluded section of the Great Wall, where you will set up camp, hang out around a campfire, and sleep next to the Great Wall under the stars. Come morning, zip open your tent to an incredible sunrise, followed by a rustic breakfast in a small, local farm village before heading back to Beijing. Secure your spot today for as little as £60.
2. South Korea.
For the food lovers…
Aside from its unique history, natural beauty, and rich culture, South Korea’s mouth-watering cuisine is why it lands in our top 6 bucket list places to visit in Asia. From authentic Korean beef bulgogi to the famous tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes), foodies won’t know where to start on a Dragon Trip to South Korea.
Better yet, you’ll have the opportunity to take part in a cooking class*, designed to educate you more about the wonders and intricacies of Korean cuisine. Discover the local ingredients used and how to prepare some traditional Korean staples from the experts, ranging from bibimbap to kimbap. Secure your spot today for as little as £140.
*Cooking classes on some tours may incur an additional cost.
3. India.
For the stargazers…
Thar, India’s largest desert, is arguably the jewel of a Dragon Trip adventure tour. After venturing through the desert on a camel safari, settle down for the evening with dinner by the campfire and a golden sunset view. The best bit? Sleep outside and stargaze at the Milky Way and the many other beautiful constellations visible in the Indian night skies. Sandwiching this beauty together – wake to a breathtaking sunrise that, for us, is the cherry on top of the cake in making India a 2024 bucket list travel location this year. Secure your spot today for as little as £85.
4. Japan.
For the culture-shock seekers…
Nothing screams ‘cultural experience’ more than a visit to Japan’s tallest mountain, Mount Fuji, renowned for its graceful conical form and pinnacle role in Japanese culture and spiritual traditions.
Follow this with a visit to a traditional Japanese onsen in the mountain peaks of Hakone – where the waters are sulfuric and known for their healing properties – and a meditation class at Daisen-in Zen Temple with a Buddhist monk, and you’ve got cultural immersion at its finest. Secure your spot today for as little as £70.
5. Nepal.
For the hikers…
Home to some of the most impressive stretches of the Himalayas, Nepal is a must-visit for every hiker, mountain lover, and outdoor goer. On a Dragon Trip to Nepal, prepare yourself for one of the best hikes of your life with the Poon Hill Trek – a 45km circuit offering panoramic views of the Annapurna and Dhaulagiri Mountain ranges. Come the evenings of this 3-day adventure, you’ll experience the authenticity of local villages, Ghorepani and Tadapani, and enjoy a well-deserved dinner with stunning sunset views. Secure your spot today for as little as £104.
