Chasing cherry blossoms

Japan’s captivating fusion of ancient traditions and modern energy sets the scene for your Explorations by Norwegian adventure. Kickstart your holiday with a two-night stay in Tokyo, affording a chance to draw your fortune at Sensoji Temple, cross the buzzing Shibuya Scramble and embrace the quirky culture of Harajuku.

Then, step onboard Regatta and cruise north to Japan’s coastal gems – from Oarai’s seaside charm to Aomori and Hakodate, where samurai history, fresh seafood and mountain views await. Departing in April 2027, witness Japan in full spring splendour, with cherry blossom petals casting a soft blush across the country. 

Witness the Last Frontier

Crossing the Pacific, the scenery transforms as you approach Alaska’s untamed wilderness. Keep watch for breaching whales, soaring eagles and calving glaciers as you journey through the Inside Passage. Plus, explore character-filled ports like Juneau and Sitka, where Indigenous culture, gold-rush stories and breathtaking natural wonders collide.

West Coast wonders

Your journey continues along the West Coast, discovering the vibrant cities of Vancouver and Seattle, before arriving in San Francisco for an unforgettable overnight stay onboard – giving you more time to explore its character-filled neighbourhoods, sweeping bay views and the famed Golden Gate Bridge. Chase the sun to San Diego’s palm-lined promenades and the golden beaches of Cabo San Lucas, before concluding your voyage in star-studded Los Angeles. 

Your home at sea

Set sail onboard the newly refined, contemporary small-ship Regatta, handpicked for exploration and capturing the essence of intimate travel. Combining sophisticated design with contemporary flair across nine decks, Regatta features 348 refreshed suites and staterooms, along with public spaces adorned in soft sea and sky tones.

Between adventures ashore, savour delectable dining across a selection of restaurants, catch up on a good read by the sun-soaked pool deck and rejuvenate at Aquamar Spa and Vitality Centre. When the sun sets, delight in everything from intimate theatre-style production shows and live music to engaging destination and cultural showcases, as crafted by dedicated Entertainment and Destination Cruise Directors.

All-inclusive always
