Crystal Serenity Itinerary 2027

Wave goodbye to Laem Chabang, the port for Bangkok, for a closer look at Southeast Asia. Our first stop is Ko Kut, a Thai island admired for the untouched quality of its wilderness as well as sugar sands such as Ao Noi with its pretty wooden pier. We hop now to the Vietnamese island of Phu Quoc, another eye-catcher that is largely National Park but has plenty of local life to experience in the main town Duong Dong. A day at sea transports us from these sandy idylls to the bright lights of Ho Chi Minh City, where we overnight. All the enticing pleasures of a fast-growing city can be found here – museums, galleries, a culinary feast of street stalls and fine-dining restaurants, and poignant stories of wartime. Back to the ocean we go, sailing for a day to Muara in Brunei, home of the Omar Ali Saifuddien Mosque, a perfect picture for your album with its gold dome and minarets. Kota Kinabalu on Borneo adds plenty of market life as well as rainforest action to the mix, and, after a day at sea, we cross to the Philippines to the sandy beaches of Boracay before hitting the irrepressible capital of this island state, Manila. Savor your final day sailing the ocean before arriving in one of the world’s most exciting cities, Hong Kong.
