Asia Cruise Ships & Onboard Life

Asia is sailed by everything from big resort ships and refined premium and luxury vessels to intimate river boats. We match the right ship to how you like to travel.

What to expect aboard

Ocean ships

Big resort ships and refined premium and luxury vessels link the great port cities on 7- to 14-night and longer itineraries.

Luxury & expedition

Small luxury and expedition ships reach remote islands and out-of-the-way ports across Southeast Asia and Japan.

River vessels

Intimate river ships cruise the Mekong, Yangtze and Irrawaddy — see asiarivercruises.com for the river fleet.

Immersive shore time

Overnight stays in marquee ports (Singapore, Bangkok, Halong Bay) mean more time to explore ashore.

Asian & international dining

Regional menus showcase the cuisines of each country alongside the usual favorites.

Enrichment aboard

Guest lecturers and cultural performances bring Asia’s history, faiths and traditions to life.

For the port cities and coasts, an ocean ship is ideal; for deep immersion on one river, a small river vessel wins. Many travelers do one of each on different trips.

We compare the ocean lines here and the river operators at asiarivercruises.com, and match the right ship, cabin and itinerary to you.
