Package Type: Package
Region: South East Asia
Duration: 14 Nights
Cruise the islands of South East Asia on the state-of-the-art Panorama II.
This Motor Sailer’s engine provides a cruising speed of 10 knots, but the temptation to raise the sails in favourable conditions is always strong. Let our capable crew sail you past the limestone islands and cliffs of Asia’s coastlines and into the smaller port towns that mega-line cruise ships can’t get to. Want to enjoy the sunset in Ha Long Bay over a candlelit dinner right on the deck of the boat? We’ve got you covered.
