Allow yourself to be carried away, travel with ease, and marvel as each new door seems to open effortlessly before you. One after another, we invite you into remarkable worlds, each with its own atmosphere, culture and emotion. Welcome aboard.
For 18 days, you will journey across Asia through ancient civilizations, dramatic landscapes and moments suspended in time. You will discover legendary cities, fascinating cultures and extraordinary scenery. Along the way, rare encounters, memorable evenings and countless emotions will shape the journey.
The tone is set from the very first day in Istanbul, where East and West meet. Ottoman palaces, domed mosques and spice-scented streets create a city of remarkable depth and character. From there, the journey continues into Central Asia and Samarkand, one of the great jewels of the Silk Road. Here, blue-tiled domes rise against the colours of the desert, while centuries of history seem to echo through every street and courtyard.
Then the journey gains altitude. In Kathmandu, Nepal’s spiritual heritage unfolds among temples, lively markets and distant Himalayan peaks. From there, you reach one of Asia’s most secluded kingdoms: Paro, in Bhutan. The “Kingdom of Happiness” opens a quieter chapter of the journey, among hillside monasteries, sacred forests and enduring traditions.
The journey then continues to Luang Prabang, in Laos, where the pace of travel seems to slow. Temples, historic residences and the banks of the Mekong create an atmosphere of remarkable serenity. You will discover the Royal Palace, Visoun Temple and Xieng Thong Temple before following the river towards the Pak Ou Caves. At daybreak, in the quiet streets of the old town, the traditional Alms Giving Ceremony continues a centuries-old Buddhist ritual. A stop shaped by spirituality, simplicity and a profound sense of place.
Singapore welcomes you next with its striking balance of contemporary architecture and tropical greenery. A city of contrasts and cultures, it surprises at every turn and offers yet another perspective on Asia.
And just when you think you have seen it all, the Maldives offer a final change of rhythm. Turquoise lagoons, soft white sand and an endless horizon create a setting made for slowing down. Three days between sea and sky bring the journey to a gentle close, allowing you to savour its final moments.
From one destination to the next, you will reunite with your crew and return to the comfort of your own seat as the sky takes on a distinctly elegant character. Champagne, canapés, menus specially created for each flight by our Chef, fine wines, the French Art of Living and welcoming spaces to share the journey: your private jet reflects the signature of Safrans du Monde, a French house devoted to the art of travel. I look forward to welcoming you on board very soon.

Samarkand – The Pearl of Central Asia! Samarkand, the "Blue City," flourishes at the heart of the Silk Road and stands as a testament to a rich and captivating cultural heritage. A true symbol of tolerance and harmony, it blends Persian, Arab, and Turkic influences. You’ll explore the Registan, a monumental complex of colorful mosaics where scholars once gathered in its vast courtyard; the awe-inspiring mausoleum of Tamerlane, featuring a precious green jade cenotaph; and the grand Bibi Khanym Mosque, at the foot of which lies a bustling bazaar overflowing with fragrant spices, dried fruits, and exquisite Uzbek craftsmanship.
April 22nd: Istanbul - Samarkand
We bid farewell to Istanbul with a hint of longing. But already, a new promise appears on the horizon: Samarkand, the legendary city of the Silk Road, opens its doors to you, nestled between turquoise minarets, shimmering domes, and millennia-old tales.
In Première Safrans, you have the privilege of discovering the Gur-e-Amir mausoleum during a private, serene visit when the crowds have dispersed and the light softens. Beneath the starry dome, the stones still whisper the story of Tamerlane. Time seems to slow down, absorbed by the surrounding serenity and splendor.
Then comes the moment to return to your hotel, your heart still touched by this first encounter with the Uzbek soul.
April 23rd: Samarkand
Samarkand reveals its wonders throughout the day. The Registan, a complex of madrasahs adorned with dazzling mosaics, recalls the era when students and scholars filled its vast courtyard with life. Tamerlane’s mausoleum houses a deep green jade cenotaph, steeped in mystery and grandeur. Nearby, the Bibi Khanym Mosque towers over the city, while at its feet stretches the great bazaar, where the scents of spices, sun-ripened fruits, and handcrafted treasures mingle.
As the day winds down, you return to your hotel and savor a dinner flavored with local specialties, still enchanted by the lingering charm of this legendary city.

Nepal – A Dream Suspended Between Sky and Mountains! Nepal is a land suspended between earth and sky, where snow-capped peaks embrace the heavens and Mount Everest—the king of summits—dares bold souls to conquer it. In Kathmandu, the spiritual heart of the country, ancient temples and golden stupas invite reflection and serenity. Sacred and secular, ancient and modern coexist in harmony on this land of mystery. You’ll stroll through Bhaktapur, a true open-air museum where the warmth of its people adds to the enchantment. Just a few kilometers away lies Bhadgaon, a peaceful haven of carved wooden temples and red-brick homes—a truly unforgettable scene.
April 24th: Samarkand - Kathmandu
Uzbekistan gives way to the striking landscapes of Nepal, land of towering peaks and deep-rooted traditions. At Boudhanath, the deep sounds of ritual instruments open a moment suspended outside the world. Within the intimacy of a monastery, silence becomes a language, marked by the monks’ gestures and swirling incense. Facing the pristine stupa, one of the country’s most sacred, the moment touches the essential: a delicate balance between emotion, beauty, and tranquility.
April 25th: Kathmandu
As a Première Safrans traveler, a magical experience awaits you: a helicopter flight soaring close to the roof of the world, offering a rare privilege to approach the Himalayas like few have. An unforgettable encounter with one of the planet’s most impressive giants.
Today, you stroll through a true open-air museum, the city of Bhaktapur, where the hospitality of its people adds to the place’s magic.

SAMARKAND - KATHMANDU

Bhutan – The Kingdom of Happiness Nestled in the majestic folds of the Himalayas, Bhutan opens its doors to you. Here, the happiness of its people is valued more than productivity—this is where the concept of Gross National Happiness was born. A rare medieval kingdom brimming with authenticity, Bhutan will leave a deep impression. You'll visit the Tiger’s Nest, a spectacular cliffside Buddhist monastery that seems to defy gravity. Wander the peaceful streets of Thimphu, the capital with no traffic lights, and admire the colossal Buddha Dordenma statue surrounded by 125,000 golden statues of Shakyamuni, the founder of Buddhism. If you're lucky, you might even spot the takin, Bhutan's national animal.
April 26th: Kathmandu - Paro
At the edge of the Himalayas, a preserved kingdom welcomes you. Bhutan, land of high peaks and peaceful hearts, gradually reveals its mysteries. In the former watchtower turned museum, the Ta Dzong, treasures of art and history tell of the deep roots of this land. Further on, the walls of Rinpung Dzong still echo with monastic chants, their frescoes vibrant with sacred colors. Then, you stroll among the stalls of the Ka Ja Throm market. Life flows to the rhythm of smiles and spicy scents in the shadow of royal residences.
As evening falls, a Bhutanese guest introduces you to the philosophy of Gross National Happiness, this unique worldview where balance, nature, and harmony lie at the heart of life.
April 27th: Paro
Set off for a memorable day in Thimphu, the capital nestled in Himalayan valleys. You behold the imposing statue of Buddha Dordenma, a symbol of peace and wisdom, before raising prayer flags in a moment of reflection, your eyes turning to the tranquil panoramas of Kuenselphodrang Nature Park.
At lunchtime, a gourmet break invites you to savor an authentic Bhutanese meal, where the flavors of the land blend with the gentleness of tradition. Then, you immerse yourself in the living history of the National Memorial Chorten, a true spiritual pillar where every moment seems suspended in time.
April 28th: Paro
Your day begins with a spiritual immersion at the Taktshang monastery, or “Tiger’s Nest,” perched between sky and earth, a sacred place filled with peace and mystery. In the afternoon, head to the Sangchen Choekhor Buddhist Institute to experience a traditional blessing ceremony, marked by the symbolic lighting of butter lamps, an offering of light and wisdom.
As evening comes, dive into Bhutanese elegance by donning a traditional costume, then let yourself be carried away by a vibrant cultural show, where music and dance tell the kingdom’s story. The day ends on a refined note with a dinner at the hotel, in a warm and authentic atmosphere.
KATHMANDU - PARO
1 hour and 20 minutes
In Luang Prabang, the journey takes on a different rhythm. Between temples, historic residences, the banks of the Mekong and centuries-old Buddhist traditions, the city reveals itself in an atmosphere where time seems to move differently. From the Royal Palace to the temples of Visoun and Xieng Thong, traces of history live alongside a spirituality that remains deeply present. Further afield, a journey along the Mekong leads to the Pak Ou Caves, through landscapes shaped by a river that has long been central to life in the region. Yet Luang Prabang may reveal its most intimate side at daybreak. In the stillness of the old town, the Alms Giving Ceremony continues a centuries-old Buddhist ritual. A moment of simplicity and contemplation that gives this stop its particular depth.
April 29th - Paro – Luang Prabang
Upon arrival in Luang Prabang, you will be transferred to your hotel and given time to settle in.
After the previous stages of your journey, the gentle pace of Luang Prabang invites you to slow down. Temples, lush vegetation and the banks of the Mekong create a peaceful setting for the next two days.
April 30th - Luang Prabang
The day begins in the heart of Luang Prabang with visits to the Royal Palace and some of the city's most emblematic temples, including Visoun Temple and Xieng Thong Temple.
After lunch, the Mekong becomes the thread running through the afternoon. You will board a boat and travel along the river towards the Pak Ou Caves, as green hills, villages and quiet riverbanks slowly unfold around you.
As evening approaches, Safrans du Monde has another interlude in store. You will leave your hotel without knowing your destination and make your way to a carefully chosen setting for a timeless Laotian evening.
Another side of Luang Prabang then comes into view, in the intimacy of a setting designed to extend the emotion of the day.
May 1st - Luang Prabang – Singapore
For those who wish, the day begins before sunrise.
In the streets of the old town, you will witness the traditional Alms Giving Ceremony. For generations, monks have walked through Luang Prabang at dawn to receive offerings from local residents. The gestures are simple, the silence almost untouched.
The morning continues with a visit to the local market, as the city gradually comes to life.
You will then return to your hotel for breakfast before heading to the airport and continuing your Air Cruise towards the next destination.
PARO - LUANG PRABANG

Then, head to the Gardens by the Bay, a place where nature reinvents itself. From the tropical mist of the Cloud Forest to the sea of flowers in the Flower Dome and the aerial walk of the OCBC Skyway, every step plunges you into a vegetal world with a futuristic, dreamlike air. The day ends with a carefully chosen dinner, a tribute to Singapore’s diversity and refinement.
May 3rd : Singapore
The morning offers you a unique escape, an original discovery of the city between Merlion Park and the Civic District. A joyful and lively immersion into Singapore’s history and colonial architecture, a subtle way to embrace the soul of the city… but shh, we prefer to keep the surprise.
