Far East Asia Discovery

Experience the fascinating islands of the Philippines and Japan, including the Amami Islands on our 10-night Far East Discovery cruise. Enjoy the beauty of the Philippines, an island nation where palm-lined beaches meet magnificent dive sites. From laid-back beach vibes to spirited urban centres, the Philippines is a southeast Asian archipelago made up of 7,641 tropical islands and inhabited by some of the world’s friendliest people. In Japan’s Amami islands, we discover an archipelago that was part of the Ryukyu Kingdom for nearly 200 years, with a period of US control after World War II. The culture here is closer to the other Ryukyuan islands than that of the mainland, but really visiting here is all about the great outdoors. Japan is a captivating country where ultra-modern seamlessly blends with the ancient. Come aboard our boutique expedition ship, and enjoy unique onshore excursions in these astonishing countries that are rooted in centuries of tradition.
