WHY TRAVEL WITH US
Kathleen Fung, founder of Far Fung Places, creates all our scheduled and private journeys.
Long before a departure, Kathleen approaches each destination through careful research and firsthand exploration for comfort and safety, and for shaping journeys that reveal not only what is seen, but what is understood. Art, history, and living traditions are the threads that give a place its meaning.
Over more than three decades, Kathleen has cultivated relationships with scholars, curators, and local experts whose perspectives quietly transform the experience of travel. These collaborations open doors—not in obvious ways, but in moments of insight, access, and connection that linger long after the journey ends.
On our exploratory trips especially, Kathleen treads lightly into new frontiers, a responsibility which she takes seriously. Far Fung Places’s mission statement is to preserve ancient civilizations and culture through responsible tourism. She designs every itinerary to minimize impact on fragile cultures.
Kathleen’s dedication and experience: knowing what to include, what to leave aside, and how to create a journey that unfolds naturally and sensitively are what make our programs so popular with like-minded travel.
