Cruise overview

Gorgeous landscapes, complex pasts, delicious cuisines and more are yours to devour as you explore 22 different ports throughout Japan and Vietnam. See all the classic icons in mainland Japan with its feudal castles, ancient capitals, forested mountains, and steaming hot springs—including hauntingly perfect Mt. Fuji. Then travel south to Okinawa, a subtropical paradise of beaches, mangroves, and karsts that has its own distinct culture thanks to its past as part of the Ryukyu Kingdom, an independent kingdom in East Asia known as a trade hub. You’ll find a similar dichotomy in Vietnam as you travel from the north’s more temperate landscape to the tropical south, savoring natural beauty, cuisines, and cultural wonders along the way. Feast your eyes on the karst landscape of Halong Bay, Da Nang’s amazing beaches and Marble Mountains, and historic sites from My Son Sanctuary and Hue to Hoi An, with an optional overland to Angkor Wat. Stops in Taipei, Taiwan, Busan, South Korea, Phnom Penh, Cambodia, and one of Thailand’s most spectacular islands add to an already incredible journey.

Itinerary

Day 1

Tokyo


Lights, sushi, manga! Sprawling, frenetic, and endlessly fascinating, Japan’s capital is a city of contrasts. Shrines and gardens are pockets of calm between famously crowded streets and soaring office buildings. Mom-and-pop noodle houses share street space with Western-style chain restaurants and exquisite fine dining. Shopping yields lovely folk arts as well as the newest electronics. And nightlife kicks off with karaoke or sake and continues with techno clubs and more. Whether you seek the traditional or the cutting edge, Tokyo will provide it.
