February 4 – 20, 2027
Five countries. Ten curated experiences. One extraordinary journey.
Your cruise may be the centerpiece, but it’s everything surrounding the sailing that turns it into an epic vacation. From your Singapore stay and private transfers to thoughtfully selected experiences in every port, each detail has been designed to help you see, taste and experience far more than the view from the ship.
Touch down at Changi and a private car takes you straight to your hotel. Nothing is scheduled on purpose — shake off the flight, stretch your legs along the river, and get your first taste of Singapore’s food halls when you’re hungry.
Singapore is a gleaming island city-state where 19th-century landmarks stand beside solar-powered “supertrees” and glass towers. Most of the city’s best moments sit within a few blocks of the Central Business District and Marina Bay.
Follow the story of modern Singapore from its founding to its skyline. Glide down the river by traditional boat, take in the views across Marina Bay, and learn how a small port became a global powerhouse in a single generation. A classic hawker-centre meal and a traditional tea tasting round out the day.
Walk through two of Singapore’s most flavorful neighborhoods with a local expert. Sample Malay, Peranakan and Eurasian specialties from hawker stalls and heritage shophouses, and finish with a bowl of the city’s famous laksa.
A private transfer carries you from your hotel to the cruise terminal, where your ship is waiting. Settle into your floating home and let Southeast Asia come to you—one fascinating port at a time.
Your first sea day. Wander the decks, find your favorite perch, and get to know the ship.
Koh Samui is a postcard of white-sand beaches and palm-fringed coves, easily circled in a day yet best savored slowly. Every beach has its own personality, from lively Chaweng to quieter northern shores.
Spend the morning in the jungle with rescued elephants roaming freely. Learn their stories, help care for them, watch them splash in the mud and the pool, and share a simple vegetarian meal before heading back to the ship.
Your ship docks at Laem Chabang, the gateway to Bangkok, about 130 km away. Bangkok is Thailand’s dazzling capital of temples, markets and neon; the seaside city of Pattaya, much closer to port, packs in its own set of wonders.
Ride up to the sweeping viewpoint over Pattaya Bay, visit the towering golden Buddha, and see the great Buddha image etched into a mountainside. Explore the intricately carved all-wood Sanctuary of Truth, wander the Floating Market, then spend the afternoon among the French-style gardens and cactus collections of a world-famous tropical park.
Another day to do absolutely nothing — or settle into a lounge, book a spa treatment, or catch a movie under the stars.
Cambodia’s sunny southern coast opens the door to the riverside town of Kampot, a laid-back place of old shophouses, farmland and countryside, famous for its pepper.
A full, rewarding day in the countryside. See how sea salt is harvested by hand, walk a pepper plantation and taste black, red, white and green varieties, then browse the local market with your chef. Cook a Khmer lunch yourself, and paddle the Kampot River through green banks before the scenic drive back to the ship.
Slow sea miles, warm breezes, a long, lingering dinner and plenty of time to relive yesterday’s best moments.
Phu My is your gateway to southern Vietnam, a region of rice fields, riverside villages and French colonial landmarks from the early 20th century.
Start with a local breakfast, then step into a 1925 French Gothic church glowing with stained glass. Visit a craft village to watch rice paper and rice wine being made the traditional way, share a classic Vietnamese lunch, and browse the market for Vietnamese coffee beans before returning to port.
Two sea days to rest up. Catch a show, linger on deck at sunset, and enjoy having nowhere you have to be.
Langkawi is an archipelago of 99 islands known for rainforest, long sandy beaches and its duty-free shopping. One main island holds nearly all the action.
A flexible, private tour of the island’s signature sights. Glide up the mountain by express-lane cable car, step out onto the curved Sky Bridge hung from a single pylon, and take in views across the sea. Between rides, visit the giant eagle statue, a black-sand beach, and the island’s craft complex.
Phuket Town is a charming blend of Sino-Portuguese architecture and Chinese, Muslim and Thai culture, with pastel shophouses, antique shops and a lively morning market.
Cruise through one of Thailand’s most dramatic seascapes in a traditional longtail boat, weaving between towering limestone cliffs, hidden lagoons and mangroves. Enjoy a Thai lunch with a panoramic view of the bay, then stroll Phuket Old Town’s colorful streets before heading back to the ship.
Penang’s capital, George Town, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site layered with British colonial buildings, Chinese clan houses, temples and street art. It’s widely regarded as one of Asia’s great food cities.
Wander George Town’s lanes with a local guide and taste your way through the island’s best-loved hawker dishes — a delicious introduction to one of Asia’s great food cities.
Malaysia’s capital is a city of contrasts, where Chinese, Malay and Indian quarters sit beside glittering towers and colonial-era buildings. Your ship docks at Port Klang, the gateway to the city.
Photo stops at the soaring twin towers and the national mosque, a look at the historic heart of the city, and a visit to a pewter workshop where craftspeople cast and engrave by hand. The finale is the glittering limestone cave temple, reached by a famous flight of 272 steps. We’ll tailor the stops to your favorites.
Your ship returns to Singapore, where a private transfer will take you from the cruise terminal to the airport for your flight home, with a suitcase full of stories.
A five-star modern hotel on Cross Street, tucked between Chinatown and the Raffles Place financial district. The Telok Ayer MRT station connects directly to the hotel, so the whole city is within easy reach.
February 4 & 5. Check-out on February 6, embarkation day.
Your floating home for the journey: over 700 balconies, world-class dining and a calendar full of entertainment, from Broadway-style shows to a Vegas-style casino and the Lotus Spa®. Launched in 2004 and refreshed in 2018, she carries about 2,670 guests across 19 decks.
After each day ashore, return to a comfortable stateroom made for rest, with room to unwind before the next port.
Check that every passport is valid well beyond your return date. We’ll confirm entry requirements for each country with you well before you go. Travel insurance is strongly recommended.
It’s warm and humid year-round. Pack light, quick-drying clothes, comfortable shoes, a hat, sunscreen and a refillable water bottle. The Singapore history tour involves a good amount of walking at a relaxed pace, and you can always hop in a taxi to cut it short.
Cover shoulders and knees when visiting temples, mosques and cave shrines. A light scarf or wrap is a great carry-along.
Small bills are handy for hawker stalls, markets and tips. Gratuities are not included.
