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 .
