Cruise overview
This month-long voyage will create a lifetime of memories, from timeless rural scenes to tongue-tingling cuisines and tantalizing islands floating in unreal shades of blue and green. Find inspiration for a thousand watercolors: longtail boats cruising the serene waters and karst pillars of Halong Bay, water buffalo tilling vivid green rice paddies, vermilion torii guarding Shinto shrines, and magical Thai islands we’ve hand-selected from over 1,400 choices. Expand your culinary horizons with Peranakan fusion food in Malaysia and Singapore, Khmer noodles in Cambodia, Taiwanese hot pot, and Ishigaki’s melt-in-your-mouth beef. Shop for colorful silk scarves in Bangkok, and browse the famous night markets during overnight stays in Hong Kong, Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and Singapore. Anchor it all with a better understanding of the past as you visit the National Palace Museum in Taipei with one of the largest collections of Chinese art in the world, Ho Chi Minh City’s War Remnants Museum, Hoi An’s Ancient Town with its beautifully preserved 18th-century merchant houses, and the Imperial City of Hue with its lovely palaces, temples and gardens. Past or present, natural beauty or glimmering neon cities, this voyage reveals it all.
Itinerary
Kobe
Located on the calm waters of the Inland Sea, Kobe has served as an important port town for hundreds of years. It was one of the first harbours to accept foreign traders in 1868 when Japan was just emerging from its centuries of isolation. What followed was a surge of Western trade and exports. Today, Kobe is quite multicultural, with expatriates from 98 different nations in residence, providing a cultural diversity most easily visible in restaurants serving every kind of cuisine, including the now world famous Kobe beef. The Great Hanshin Earthquake of 1995 set back Kobe’s development, but not for long. Kobe emerged more vibrant than before – with additional attractions, hotels and urban redevelopment, and only a few remnants of the extensive damage. It is a cosmopolitan place with lively shopping arcades, interesting museums, great restaurants, and a port that is still at the heart of things. Kobe is well known for its nightlife, in an intimate quarter of neon lights, cosy bars and sophisticated nightclubs. It also serves as the gateway to the ancient Japanese capitals of Kyoto and Nara.
