Remote Lands Announces Extraordinary Golf Journeys To Asia

New York, NY (PRWEB) August 6, 2007

Remote Lands, Inc., America’s only provider of luxury bespoke travel and private jet journeys focused exclusively on Asia, is pleased to announce tailor-made golf journeys to Asia. Travelers can play Asia’s most exciting courses while enjoying insider connections that only Remote Lands offers. Private access to the region’s finest courses, as well as the opportunity to learn and play with highly-regarded local golf professionals, is just part of Remote Lands’ golf journeys. The company matches clients’ preferred destinations and desired level of play to the perfect courses and hotels, resorts or private villas, to create an unforgettable experience. While golf will be the focus of the journey, Remote Lands also provides unparalleled access to a wealth of cultural and culinary experiences in each destination to give travelers the opportunity to immerse themselves in the local surroundings. Remote Lands’ bespoke Asian golf journeys begin at approximately $ 1,500 per person per day, non-inclusive of international airfare, private jet charters, helicopters, and personal staff including chefs, trainers, instructors, and other professionals.

Golf experiences can be planned throughout Asia, including trips to China, Indonesia, India and Malaysia. Other noteworthy golf destinations include Vietnam, Burma, the Philippines, as well as Bhutan, location of the world’s highest golf course. The Royal Thimpu Golf Club is the host of the Yak Open tournament which awards yak parts as prizes. Remote Lands can arrange for their clients to play golf at Bali’s top-rated golf club, the Nirwana Bali Golf Club, or at the Handara Kosaido Country Club, where the course is located inside an extinct volcano. Golfers may play rounds at the largest golf club in the world, Mission Hills Golf Club in Shenzhen, China. Mission Hills boasts 12 championship courses, each designed by noted golf professionals including Jack Nicklaus, Greg Norman and Nick Faldo, and offers 216 holes in all. Players may also schedule a tee time at the Bangpoo Country Club, just outside Bangkok, Thailand for a round of golf on the Arnold Palmer-designed course.

These include a private dinner with a Balinese Prince and his family in their royal palace, including a performance by Balinese singers and dancers.

Another option in Bali is witnessing fascinating Kecak fire dance performances (on hot coals, where the entranced dancer feels no pain) and a Sanghyang dance traditionally performed as an exorcism to promote peace and health within a village. In Thailand, golfers can spend an afternoon participating in the ordination ceremony of a young monk, followed by a dinner hosted by members of the Thai Royal Family in their home. Private cooking lessons in the homes of Vietnamese fishermen or attending a family celebration such as a wedding or religious ceremony are a few of the options available in Vietnam. Dinner with a prominent Bhutanese family can cap off a day of play on the world’s highest golf course.

Remote Lands actively promotes socially responsible tourism and donates five percent of its profits directly to local charities in Asian countries for sustainable development tourism projects. The company’s aim is to protect and enhance the geographical character of a place — its environment, culture, aesthetics, heritage and the well-being of its residents — and to help foster a sense of national identity and pride.

Remote Lands Introduces Families to Asian Cultural Vacations

New York, NY (PRWEB) June 7, 2007

Remote Lands, Inc., America’s only provider of luxury bespoke travel exclusively to Asia, is now offering families the opportunity to experience Asia in an entirely new way, with extraordinary cultural journeys. The company works closely with the parents and the children in order to get to know their own particular interests and desires, and then arranges one-of-a-kind tailor-made vacations for them. Remote Lands organizes insider access to remote communities, cultural events, ceremonies and much more, providing family holidays that are unique, profound, and unlike anything most Americans have ever experienced. Travelers are introduced to the traditions and customs of Asian families, as they are welcomed into private homes, schools and businesses. They witness first-hand everyday Asian life, work, educational and social activities, with the kids taking part in sports and games, while the parents learn about the adults’ livelihoods and household duties. This cultural immersion provides families with an inside view of the world’s largest and most diverse continent, and a much deeper understanding of Asian people.

Remote Lands’ bespoke Asian journeys begin at about $ 1,000 per person per day, depending on the destination, plus international airfare, and go up from there depending on private jet charters, helicopters, VIP audiences, and personal staff including chefs, trainers, concierges and other professionals. Possible itinerary highlights include:


Laos Elephant Camp: Ten miles outside of Luang Prabang, Laos, is an Elephant Camp where elephants who are freed from the brutal working of logging timber are brought to live out their days in a happy, safe, loving environment. Participants assist mahout handlers in bathing and feeding the magnificent animals, including the camp’s recently-rescued three-year-old baby elephant. Parents and children have the opportunity to ride the elephants through the jungle, passing the picturesque Tad Sae waterfall before joining the animals for a refreshing swim in the Nam Khan River.

Balinese Kite Making: Families are invited to the palace of the Prince of Bali, where they join him in building and flying traditional Balinese kites. A picnic is arranged on the lawns of the palace, where families participate in a kite-blessing ceremony, followed by a visit to the nearby beach to test their kites in the warm sea breeze.

Bhutan Remote Village Visit: Families are invited to one of Asia’s most remote farming villages, where they are welcomed by a traditional Chipdrel procession. The Bhutanese children host their American guests, guiding them through the village and introducing them to their school activities, games and sports. Adults chat with their Asian counterparts, who demonstrate their cooking techniques and their other household duties. The visit culminates in a traditional, home-cooked lunch of red rice, momo dumplings, cheese with chilis and curried yak.

Bhutan Buddhist Wedding Vow Renewal: The entire family takes part in a traditional Bhutanese marriage ceremony, where the parents renew their wedding vows in an old village farmhouse or a Buddhist monastery. The ceremony includes the monks performing sacred blessings, playing traditional music, and serving symbolic libations and food such as rice and fruit. This lively yet highly spiritual event involves all members of the family and is an extremely memorable experience.

Bali Orphanage Visit: Families visit the Franciscan Orphanage at Tuka Dalung in Bali, where American children are paired with Indonesian children for a first-hand learning experience inside the orphanage walls. The Balinese children demonstrate their culture and involve their American counterparts in their daily customs, with traditional music, sports and games. A lunch of “nasi goring” fried rice, “bakso” beef soup, vegetables and chicken satay is served in the dining room.

Borneo Orangutans: Visit the Sepilok Orangutan Sanctuary in Sarawak in northern Malaysia, and the nearby Probiscis Monkey Sanctuary, where orphaned and abandoned baby orangutans are raised before being re-integrated into the wild. In both places the family can see the animals up close and personal, but still in a natural habitat.
