Close to home, intricate architecture, ancient cultures…there’s a long list of reasons to do an Asia cruise. From low, sprawling rice fields, to Nepal’s towering Mt. Everest- these are just a few elements that make Asia a destination of abundance. Which elements of this vast continent are you looking to connect with on your next trip?
On a Silversea cruise, you’ll rediscover what you thought you knew about an Asia cruise. Mainly, through programs such as S.A.L.T (An abbreviation for sea and land taste), which engages culinary and cultural scenes, or an expedition cruise, which will get you exploring a bit more. There are plenty of itineraries to choose from. Let our Tour + Cruise experts find the right one for you, or browse our Silversea deals to learn more.
In-Depth Immersion or Short Overview?
Firstly, you’ll want to decide whether you’re after a truly immersive Asia cruise experience, or a quick taste. With Silversea, you can spend up to 30 days cruising Asia, which calls on seven countries during its four-week sailing. It offers guests a taste of Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, the Philippines, Malaysia and Thailand. It’s an efficient way to tour the continent from the comfort and ease of a single suite.
Maybe you’d prefer just a small taste of a variety of countries. On a 14-night sailing between Singapore and Hong Kong, passengers will spend three days in Thailand and five days in Vietnam, with overnight stays in Bangkok and Ho Chi Minh City, respectively, so guests can also experience each destination at night.
Country-intensive cruises have also become increasingly popular. Vibrant destinations, like Japan, make for a magical Asia cruise experience. Spend two weeks sampling sake, eating world-famous beef, and participating in invigorating excursions. These trips also call at ports in Korea, depending on the itinerary – adding a nice bonus onto your journey!
Island Life or City Life?
Asia boasts thousands of islands, but also holds the most skyscrapers of any continent in the world. The diversity can bring a challenge for choosing the right Asia cruise. Unlock a different side of Asia by cruising through Japan’s beautiful Okinawa and Oshima, as part of a 12 day return Tokyo itinerary. These ancient islands boast pristine white-sand beaches and vibrant coral reefs. Sounds different to your average Japan cruise, right? Or maybe you’d prefer to explore bays and islands, alive with diverse flora and fauna. Then a voyage through the Philippines and Malaysia would suit you perfectly.
An Asia cruise may also entail visiting some of the most bustling cities in the world. Tokyo, Shanghai and Seoul are in the list of Silversea’s 14 day Tokyo to Incheon itinerary. Explore soaring skyscrapers, iconic temples and bustling centres on this fascinating Asia cruise. The bright lights and sensational architecture make for an exciting adventure.
