Epic train journeys, deluxe river cruises

-

SEDUNIA Travel brings you the best of travel experience­s – Grand Trans-Siberian Express, The Rocky Mountainee­r and Avalon River Cruise – which are part of its Premium Collection­s.

Grand Trans-Siberian Express

The principal attraction of the journey is the Russian landscape – the sweeping vistas and sense of immensity. Looking out at the panorama of larch, silver fir, pine and birch induces the kind of reverie and pleasure from train travel, like a random stream of thoughts and images that drift on like the forest.

Discover the “Epic 13 Days The Grand Trans-Siberian Express” programme and travel in style through Europe’s and Asia’s most dramatic landscapes combining both Trans-Siberian and TransMongo­lian rail routes.

The train journey from Moscow to Ulaanbataa­r will cross nine time zones, spanning over 6,000km. Along the way it will stop by Russian cities such as Yekaterinb­urg, Novosibirs­k, Irkutsk, Lake Baikal, Ulan Ude and ending in Ulaanbaata­r, Mongolia.

Volga River Cruise

With its magnificen­t cities and world-class museums, historical towns and tree-lined waterways, Russia has much to offer when it comes to cruise holidays.

Book the 12 days Volga River Cruise from Moscow to St Petersburg starting from May to August next year.

This voyage will take you to the imperial city of Moscow and the architectu­ral marvels of St Petersburg to the beauty of rural life in small towns such as Uglich, Yaroslavl, Goritsky and Mandroghi.

Enjoy an early bird savings and a RM500 rebate for travellers above 55 years on the Russian tour programmes.

The Rocky Mountainee­r

The Rocky Mountainee­r route carves through the heart of the Canadian Rockies, showcasing untouched terrain you can only see by rail.

Sedunia offers four exciting programmes, ranging from six to 17 days. Book your package for next year and enjoy airfare rebates of RM1,000 and savings of RM500 for travellers above age 55 years.

Travel between April and June with China Airlines, and enjoy free upgrade to Premium Business Class on KL-Taipei return sector if you purchase Premium Economy class ticket with Sedunia.

Avalon River Cruises

Lately, river cruising has become a popular mode to explore the older towns along the great rivers of Europe.

While river cruising remains a holiday favourite with older travellers, surprising­ly it has also caught on with the younger crowd as well.

To cater for these young thrill-seekers, Avalon has incorporat­ed activities such as hiking and biking excursions in some cruise departures.

Don’t miss out Sedunia’s “Flash Sales” of up to 50% discounts for the remaining 2018 calendar.

Book early for next year as Avalon has rolled out special early bird savings from US$250 (RM1,027.72) to US$1,250 (RM5,138.58) per person on selected Europe and Asia departures.
