Malaysia provides EXO opportunities to fulfill every niche market we operate in, namely tailor-made, adventure travel and MICE. It will also enable us to provide more combined trips with the neighboring countries we are already established in. It’s the perfect next step for EXO in every way!

Nicky Henderson appointed General Manager of EXO Malaysia
Former Director of Product, Nicky Henderson has been appointed as the new General Manager of EXO Malaysia. Nicky first traveled through Malaysia in the 90’s before going on to become a tour guide in Borneo and Peninsula Malaysia. She then moved through the ranks as a Product Manager and then onto Director of Product with EXO and is very excited to be returning to the place she calls her second home. When asked about the opportunity ahead, Nicky commented;
“Captivating, exotic, diverse and complete – Malaysia is a multi-faceted destination that offers an unrivalled traveling experience; from pristine rainforest with endemic species, to turquoise water islands and a heady cultural diversity, there really is no other country in Southeast Asia that can offer this type of immersion in a 2-week holiday”.
“The potential for fresh, innovative experiences in Malaysia is in a class of its own, with so much heritage intact, and such an expansive range of cultural influences open for exploration, I just can’t wait to get started!”
