The Lost City & Gems of the Far East Cruise

We would be amiss if we didn’t recommend this tour. This amazing adventure features everything from a visit to the floating markets of Bangkok in Thailand to a jaunt down the lengthy Vietnamese coastline (with ample opportunity to see the gorgeous Halong Bay and the city of Saigon). The true gem, however, is the time spent exploring the seventh wonder of the world, the lost city of Angkor Wat in Cambodia.

You’ll have the chance to experience the 54 towers of Bayon that are decorated with hundreds of smiling faces, the South Gate and the road lined with gods and demons that leads up to it, the Ta Prohm temple that was featured in the Angelina Jolie film Tomb Raider and so much more. Feel yourself being whisked back in time as you wander through this mysterious and beautiful all-but-abandoned city and indulge in a royal lunch in a spot originally reserved for only the king and his consorts.

It’s common knowledge (or at least it should be) that when it comes to discovering the Far East, cruises are the best way to do so. For culture, history and unique memories that will last a lifetime, there’s no better destination – so what are you waiting for? Book your Southeast Asian adventure today.
