Find HotelsIf you need to shorten the journey, focus on the core highlights: Japan, South Korea, China, Southeast Asia (Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia), and India. Dropping the Pacific detour (Sydney) and condensing multi‑day stays into 1‑2 days each can shave off 3–4 weeks. To extend the trip, consider adding Sri Lanka’s tea country, the Maldives for a beach retreat, or the Himalayan trek in Nepal for an adventurous finale.
