Overview

The Seabourn Encore leaves Singapore behind as she sets course for Thailand and Singapore on this 14-night Seabourn sailing. Calling at Ko Samui, Ho Chi Minh City, and Ha Long Bay among 3 ports, this cruise is packed with opportunities to explore. Life on board the Seabourn Encore is as much a part of this holiday as the ports themselves - and Seabourn ensures there's plenty to enjoy both on board and ashore. From £6,317 per person, you could be stepping aboard the Seabourn Encore and heading for Thailand and Singapore.

Cruise Itinerary

Day 1

Singapore

Singapore, once a humble fishing village, has transformed into a global hub of commerce and culture. The city-state's equatorial climate supports a lush green landscape amidst urban sophistication, offering a year-round tropical environment that contrasts sharply with its modern architecture. Renowned for its efficiency and cleanliness, Singapore uniquely blends Malay, Chinese, and Indian influences, evident in neighborhoods like Little India and Chinatown. An interesting fact: it is one of the few city-states in the world and has a national tree planting day every November to preserve its title as a Garden City.

Its tropical climate enhances the lush, green expanses scattered throughout the city, perfect for those who seek respite within vibrant urban confines. The citys streets, a labyrinth of local food vendors, French colonial architecture, and bustling markets, offer an authentic snapshot of Vietnamese life.

Trip of a lifetime

A magical trip, in ultimate luxury, in the days when Myanmar was a highlighted overnighter, a super sampling of all the Far East and Middle East has to offer. Still a fantastic journey today without the Burma experience.

Wonderful journey and itinerary around Adriatic and Dalmation coast including Slovenia / Croatia / Montenegro / North Greece and East Italy. Ship was delightful. Staff, service, suite, food etc all excellent. Limited entertainment but that is not a problem to us. Ports of call were all interesting and enjoyable . Maybe could have done with an etxra sea day. Full marks to Seabourn and its team .
