There’s so much to see on this voyage from the Seychelles to Singapore, as we call in at the Maldives, Sri Lanka, India, Thailand, and Malaysia. After embarking in Mahé, we enjoy two relaxing days at sea before reaching Malé, the little capital of the Maldives where underwater adventures await. Next, we visit Sri Lanka - itsbuzzy capital Colombo, the temples and national parks ofHambantota, andthe beautiful beaches ofTrincomalee. India beckons, with a stop in Port Blairin the Bay of Bengal, and then our explorations continue in Thailand, with a night in lively Phuket, before we sail on to Malaysia, first to the foodie haven of Penang and then to Malacca. Finally, we disembark in Singapore, where a deep dive into its street food scene is a must.

With colorful markets, historic mosques, and bustling streets, Malé offers a lively contrast to the serene atolls that have made the Maldives so famous. As the political and cultural heart, the city, homes almost a third of the archipelago's population and introduces visitors to a vibrant urban center that blends tradition and modernity. But that's not to say that Malé doesn't have its fair share of pristine beaches and turquoise waters. The city recently added an artificial beach of white sands and shallow waters which creates an ideal environment for swimming. For those who are willing to travel a little out of the capital, the Maldives' ubiquitous tropical havens are just a short boat ride away.

8:00 AM - 7:00 PM

13 EXCURSIONS

Known for its lively local culture, Colombo, Sri Lanka's commercial capital, combines tropical landscapes with an unforgettable cosmopolitan vibe. Sri Lanka's capital until recent times, this fascinating city is filled with an intriguing blend of cosmopolitan buildings and ancient temples. A key stop on the spice routes, Portuguese, Dutch, and British trading companies left behind churches, monuments and religions, as well as smatterings of their languages that have been incorporated into the speech and daily routine of the local Sri Lankans.

Hambantota, Sri Lanka

feb 22, 2026

8:00 AM - 6:00 PM

11 EXCURSIONS

Arriving in Hambantota, you will likely have Sri Lanka's wildlife on your mind. Just over an hour away is Yala Safari Park, a jungled, grassy, lagoon-rich sanctuary bordering the Indian Ocean, which provides refuge for one of the world's biggest leopard populations, as well as elephants, sloth bears, and jackals. Closer to the port is Bundala National Park, a mosaic of dunes and waterways harboring nearly 200 bird species, among them greater flamingos that flock in for the winter, creating a dazzling, pink spectacle. The park is also home to elephants, civets, giant squirrels, marine turtles, and the fearsomely named mugger crocodiles. But Hambantota itself is not short of attractions. Witness fascinating harvesting and production processes at Hambantota Salt Factory, where vast salt pans shimmer in the sun. Explore the region's rich cultural history at Magampura Ruhunu Heritage Museum, or pay a sobering visit to the area devastated by the 2004 tsunami, learning about the community's experience, resilience, and rebuilding.

Trincomalee, Sri Lanka

feb 23, 2026

8:00 AM - 6:00 PM

10 EXCURSIONS

Bursting with beauty and beaches, Trincomalee has to be seen to be believed. The coastal city, located in the eastern province of Sri Lanka, is one of the oldest cities in the country, and boasts rich history and cultural heritage. The town's attractions are multifarious: from paradisiacal beaches lapped by limpid seas to Hindu temples that are considered among the most sacred in Sri Lanka and pilgrims, history enthusiasts, and curious explorers will enjoy visiting the revered Koneswaram Temple. The city also offers a glimpse into Sri Lanka's colonial past through its well-preserved forts, such as Fort Frederick. However, if you really want to feel the beating heart of the town, head to the vibrant market and sample some of the delicious seafood and spicy curries. Indulge in the delicious local cuisine and experience the warm hospitality of the locals.

8:00 AM - 6:00 PM

9 EXCURSIONS

Situated on South Andaman Island, in the center of the Bay of Bengal, Port Blair, the entry point (and capital) for visiting the Andamans, is well and truly off the tourist trail. It's incredibly remote, Just 36 of the 500 island archipelago are open to visitors and with no commercial airport, non-residents to the region are few and far between. Lack of tourists however means good news for the local wildlife. 86% of the Andamans are covered with forest, so wildlife is one of the main attractions here: 270 species of birds (including 14 endemic birds) call the islands home, while underwater the kaleidoscopic marine life is rich and plentiful. The island once served as a penal colony and Cellular Jail, built by the British when India was under colony in the 18th century, offers a chance to see how the colonial government of India treated its exiled criminals and political prisoners.

Residents call Phuket `The Pearl of the South,` and one visit to this green, sun-soaked island in the Andaman Sea will show you why. The coast is a succession of magnificent beaches, the forested interior boasts virgin rain forests and numerous cacao, pineapple, and rubber plantations. The culture is a distinctive blend of Portuguese, Chinese and indigenous Chao Naam: a proud, seafaring people.

Located on the ancient spice routes, Penang is a compelling blend of Old World Asia, Sumatra, India, and the influences of its various European settlers over the centuries. It has been a historical link between Europe and the Middle East, and its modern identity remains a kaleidoscope ofcultures. Lively markets offer adventures for the palate, its emerging art scene adds intrigue tothe urban jungle, and Penang Bridge and Penang Hill afford sweeping vistas.

9 EXCURSIONS

If ever a place embodied a mix of cultures, it is Malacca. Here, the red-hued Dutch square gives way to terraced Peranakan townhouses, a gold-domed mosque and a Buddhist temple flanked by mighty painted tigers. No wonder, because this 14th-century Malay kingdom stronghold later became a heaving and hauling spice trade port under the Portuguese and Dutch and is now one of the most historic and kaleidoscopic cities in Malaysia. Explore the sizzle and smoke of Jonker Walk in Chinatown for a taste of it all, where stalls sell local craft and antique treasures, alongside coconut ice cream, black-pepper-topped barbecue corn and even hammered candy.
