Not surprisingly, thereโs a widening range of river cruising options across Asia. Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, India, China or even Borneo could be the destination for your next river cruise.
Sitting here in Singapore at the lovely Marina Mandarin Hotel, I have a view of the bizarre Marina Sands Hotel (looks like a futuristic skyscraper topped by a boat) in one direction, and the Merlion in the other. It's steamy, overcast and may rain any minute, and my thoughts can't help but drift back to our cruise in Azamara Quest, which ended on Saturday in Hong Kong.
Sheโs been receiving rave reviews since her debut last year and The Yachts of Seabournโs new Odyssey may have a major impact on the way cruise ships are designed.
She's the most specious ship yet from luxury line Oceania Cruises. James Sitters tells Rose Kelly and Peter Lynch what's on board the new class of ship, including restaurants, spas and suites.
