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.

Port Klang

Day 3

Georgetown, Penang

If the spirit of adventure courses through your veins, and historical intrigue piques your curiosity, then the story of Penang, where the British East India Company first established a foothold in Southeast Asia, beckons. With its tropical rainforest climate, Penang is a year-round destination that offers more than just sun-soaked beaches; it's a cultural mosaic vibrantly alive in its street art, colonial architecture, and bustling night markets. This island is a microcosm of Malaysia, where traditional trishaws pedal past heritage buildings. Here, even the air is infused with a hint of nutmeg and clove, a nod to its Spice Island moniker.

Day 4

Phuket

Phuket, once an ancient trading route between India and China, is known as the Pearl of the Andaman. Its humid, tropical climate and lush, mountainous landscape provide a paradise for adventurers and relaxation seekers alike. This island offers more than just scenic beaches; its a vibrant showcase of Thai traditions and festivities, such as the Vegetarian Festival with its spectacular processions. Phuket is also the gateway to the unique gibbon rehabilitation project, where visitors can learn about wildlife conservation in Thailand.

60th Wedding Anniversary Cruise

Having sailed before on this ship, we booked it to coincide with our anniversary having had a family celebration the week before with our many grandchildren and adult children. The cruise took us from Southampton and out into the western section of the Med and enjoyed seeing places we had and not had visited before. The weather was kind and not too hot and we had a balcony suite. The crew were very friendly has normal and helped us celebrate on the exact date. As it was our diamond anniversary I purchased appropriate gifts for my good lady, and met, as usual, a lot of friendly passengers, some of whom were celebrating various anniversaries. We have now booked another cruise on the Sky for October, 2026.

Princess goes Carnival

If you are an older Princess fan as we are we were extremely disappointed with the Star. All that we knew to make Princess Princess is gone or altered other than the Sea Witch. We have 27 cruises and this is the only cruise we felt like the money was wasted. The music was sub-par with no classic or classical. The Wheelhouse is now a shadow of itself. The Vista gone. The Piazza with its glamor, class and cozy meeting areas replaced with a three-story hole in the ship. Liquor in the mini bar has been replaced with artificially colored seltzer water. No library or nooks to read. No Internet cafe. Much of what you could do on your TV you no longer can. Laundry now takes up to 72 hours. Unlike other lines smoke still fills the casinos main room. They have piano players in the Irish pub doing Sinatra, not Irish music. The indoor pool is now a venue for meetings and entertainment and smells just like an indoor pool. If you like a Boom ba da Boom Carnival cruise with a cruise director in gaudy clothes, this may be for you. The ship is new and pretty and the crew was great.

Beautiful ship and experience

Sky Princess is a beautiful ship with great attention to detail and service that provides a warm welcome comforting feeling to make you feel right at home from the start. Our stateroom was lovely with great views from the balcony when sailing into Oslo. Staff were so friendly and could not do enough to ensure that our Princess cruise experience was everything that it could be and more. I would highly recommend Princess cruises , can't wait to go on another one.
