Singapore, penang, phuket: Cruise & Stay
This seven-night Singapore Penang Phuket Cruise & Stay holiday offers a straightforward and well-organised way to explore some of Southeast Asia’s most famous destinations. Your trip begins in Singapore, where you will spend three nights in a four-star hotel. Singapore is an island city-state that acts as the commercial centre of the region, providing a clean and modern base to discover a mix of Buddhist temples, Victorian buildings, and Arab bazaars. It is a city where tradition meets modern living, offering excellent duty-free shopping for Irish travellers. Following your stay in the city, you will board the Navigator of the Seas for a four-night cruise. On board, you will enjoy full board dining, meaning your meals are included and taken care of while you are at sea. The cruise visits Penang in Malaysia, a location steeped in history. Its capital, George Town, is a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site and is arguably the best-preserved heritage city in the region. Here, you can walk through the European-style esplanade or visit traditional Chinese clan houses. The next stop is Phuket, Thailand’s largest island, known as the ‘Pearl of the Andaman Sea’. Phuket is famous for its crystalline waters and dramatic coastal hills, offering a scenic contrast to the urban energy of Singapore. The ship itself provides a range of facilities and entertainment, ensuring your time between ports is comfortable and engaging. This package is particularly good value as it includes your return flights from Dublin, transfers between the airport, hotel, and port, and a 23kg check-in bag for each person. This holiday is an ideal choice for those who want a blend of a city break and a cruise, allowing you to see multiple cultures and landscapes without the stress of planning individual transport and accommodation. With all the major details organised by your travel advisor, you can focus on enjoying the sights and sounds of the East in a relaxed and factual manner.
