There are many cruises to choose from covering exotic Asia and you will find big differences in cultures, cuisines, languages of the different countries, so there is always something new to enjoy. The key highlights of a Far East cruise include Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia. But why not visit vibrant Hong Kong or be totally different and take in less known places such as Vietnam, Cambodia or Brunei.

When in the City of Singapore, you will miss out if you don't try a Singapore Sling in the Long Bar at Raffles Hotel or why not visit Bugis Street, Little India and the Arab Street markets? The Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur enables you to see the Salahuddin Blue Mosque, the largest in Southeast Asia or visit the Batu Caves where a stone staircase with 272 steps leads up to a Hindu Shrine. Kuantan on the unspoilt east coast offers a feel of the real Malaysia with perfect beaches, mangroves, paddy fields and sleepy fishing villages. In Thailand you can shop for absolutely anything in the world famous street markets, visit some amazing temples and historical sights or just relax on one of Thailand’s famous beach resorts.

The Far East cruising season runs all year round, however, the best time to go is during the British winter.
