Along the way, discover a natural hot spring, experience a healing Thai massage and savor a traditional northern Thai style dinner and cultural dance.
Note: This program is limited to 20 participants. Guests travelling with Portable Oxygen Concentrators (POC) or CPAP breathing machines should read further below for airline stipulations with regards to bringing this equipment on tour.
DAY 1 – April 15, 2025
Disembark the ship in Singapore, meet your guide and transfer to the Singapore airport. Drive time is approximately 45 minutes. Check in for a flight from Singapore to Chiang Mai via Bangkok.
Upon arrival in Chiang Mai, proceed to your hotel. Nestled on the peaceful Ping River, Anantara Chiang Mai Resort is a chic contemporary resort built around a 100-year-old heritage house which once belonged to the British Consulate. The rooms and suites are housed in a sleek, modern building decorated in a simple yet sophisticated style with elements of Thai design. Adding an element of fun, the restaurant presents a 20th-century secret service theme with hidden chambers and James Bond-inspired cocktails.
Enjoy a welcome dinner at the hotel with the group.
DAY 2 – April 16, 2025
After breakfast, depart from your hotel for an overland journey (approximately 3-hours) through the northern Thai countryside to Chiang Rai.
En route, make a short stop at the Mae Kachan Hot Springs where you can dip your feet in the natural hot water pools. Continue the drive towards Chiang Rai and enjoy lunch at a local restaurant.
After lunch, travel to the Golden Triangle for a scenic boat ride to a viewpoint overlooking the Mekong River. Here you will see the spot where three countries meet - Thailand, Laos, and Myanmar.
Nearby, visit the Hall of Opium which offers an interesting insight into the history of the opium trade which once affected many hill tribe villagers in this area. Learn about the impacts of the poppy as well as the steps made to help the Golden Triangle community in more recent times.
Continue to your hotel. Perched on a ridge overlooking rolling hills, Anantara Golden Triangle Elephant Camp & Resort is a beautiful mountain hideaway with captivating views of the jungle-covered landscape and overlooks the border with Myanmar and Laos. The resort boasts an award-winning elephant camp with scientific research and a conservation program.
In the afternoon, immerse in a Thai healing tradition with a relaxing 90-minute spa session. With a 30-minute body treatment and 60-minute massage, facial or salon treatment, this is an opportunity to focus on mindfulness while being pampered with a soothing herbal experience or a detoxifying spa treatment.
Later, enjoy dinner at the hotel.
DAY 3 – April 17, 2025
Start the morning with a visit to the Chiang Saen local market. Admire the fresh, locally grown fruits and vegetables and stop for a coffee at a local place. Return to your hotel for a lesson in the art of Thai cooking.
Immerse in Thai culinary culture, learning about the key ingredients and how they are used and stored, as well as alternatives you can substitute when you are at home. Head to the kitchen to prepare a selection of authentic regional dishes which you can later savor for lunch.
In the afternoon, enjoy a rare opportunity to walk side-by-side with elephants through natural forests and grasslands. Accompany the elephants on their daily walk in the jungle and watch them roam freely in their natural habitat. See how the gentle giants splash in the river, play in the mud or snack on jungle leaves.
Celebrate the artistic heritage of the old Lanna kingdom with a farewell dinner in the rice field. Savor a traditional khantoke meal where a selection of classic northern Thai dishes is served on a tray, such as pork curry, green chili dip and other local favorites. The meal is accompanied by a traditional Thai dance performance that celebrates centuries of northern Thai culture and heritage.

Expected Weather:
Hot and Dry. The average mid-day temperatures can hover to upper 30s C (85-90 F), especially in inland areas like Chiang Mai. It is less breezy at this time of year; the sun can be quite intense and the air becomes hazier with the rising humidity. Though sometimes quite hot, the lack of rain still leaves this good time of year to visit the temples.
What to Bring:
On this tour the key words are comfortable and casual. Remember we are visiting a foreign country and local dress codes should be observed.
*Please avoid uncovered shoulders, shorts or revealing clothing.
*Full length trousers or pants and/or skirts covering the knees are required to be worn when visiting the temple
Although dinners are not formal, you may want to bring something a bit dressier for that time of day.
Bring a hat or a head covering for sun protection and don’t forget your sunscreen, sunglasses and bug spray (you should have mosquito repellent for sunrise and sunset hours). It’s also a good idea to bring along a small packet of tissues or wet wipes. It is also suggested that guests wear flat comfortable walking shoes (not sandals or open toed shoes / flip flops). Guest are requested to take-off their foot wear and hats when visiting religious sites.
Local Currency:
Guests are encouraged to bring US Dollars with them as they are most accepted in Thailand. The local currency is the Thai Baht. You should take smaller denominations of US Dollars with you, as they will keep you from ending up with a lot of local change that you will not be able to re-exchange back home.
Electricity:
Rooms are equipped with 220-volt, two-pin US style electrical outlets. We recommend travelling with your own adaptor kits should you have electronic devices.
Luggage information:
20kg (44lbs) - Light luggage would be most suited for this 3-night trip. Please note that the airlines allow a maximum of 1 checked suitcase (20 kg or 44lbs) and one small carry on. Any additional pieces will be in excess and fees will be paid to the airline at the guests’ expense.
Carriage of Portable Oxygen Concentrators (POC) or CPAP breathing machines on internal flights per airline regulations (subject to change as each airline has their own regulations):
1. Guests must obtain a Doctor’s Certificate mentioning their medical condition and the need to carry this equipment with them on their flights.
2. The certificate should have attached a picture of the equipment with its description/specifications especially with regards to the type of batteries used (lithium/dry or any other type)
3. These documents need to be sent to the Land Program Team via Reservations at RSSC at least one month prior to travel so that our local operator can begin the notification process with the airline(s).
4. Failure to comply with the above regulations may result in a denial of this equipment at the airport for which Regent Seven Seas Cruises nor our local ground operator be responsible for.
Documents and Visa Requirements:
Guests must carry a valid passport with at least 6 months validity and have spare pages for the immigration stamp
Guests should be aware if they require a visa for their nationality for the countries visited on this program (Singapore and Thailand).
VERY IMPORTANT – The name on your cruise booking, passport and any visas if required, must all be exactly the same for flight ticket purchase for this program, otherwise guests may be denied travel by flight. Please ensure that all documents are identical in spelling to the names provided for your cruise reservation including first, middle and last name.

After breakfast at the hotel, you will transfer by tuk tuk to Apopo, a fascinating research center.

This behind-the-scenes experience will give you the opportunity to observe the rats clearing a mock mine field and talk with their trainers.
The highly valued rats are well treated. They enjoy spacious, cool lodgings, are fed plenty of fresh fruit and never work for longer than a few hours a day.

This evening you’ll be treated to a magical dining experience amidst ancient Angkor with rare access to the grounds of a historical temple at night.

DAY 1
Disembark the ship in Seattle, meet your guide and begin your Pacific Northwest adventure.
Many call Seattle, “The Emerald City.” There is no wizard, but Seattle certainly has a magic all of its own. It is a dynamic, urban city surrounded by unmatched natural beauty.
Travel through historic districts, rich with culture, and visit many of the neighborhoods that characterize Seattle’s diversity. On a panoramic tour you will see Pioneer Square, the Waterfront, Capitol Hill, Volunteer Park, and South Lake Union, home to Amazon and numerous biotech companies. Nearby Seattle Center features the famous Space Needle, built for the 1962’s World Fair, the Chihuly Garden and Glass Museum, and many other exciting attractions. Note: no inside visits
After seeing the sights of Seattle, head to the east side of Lake Washington, and the town of Woodinville.
In recent years, Woodinville, in the verdant Sammamish River Valley has become known as the place where Washington pours. Wine that is! With more than 100 wineries, four distinct wine-making districts, and more 90+ rated vintages than anywhere else in the world, you are sure to find some wines that excite the palate. At a chosen winery, you will dine on delicious northwest cuisine and a carefully curated selection of paired wines with lunch.
After lunch, there will be time for shopping and strolling in quaint downtown Snoqualmie before heading to the day’s final destination, the Salish Lodge.
Overlooking beautiful Snoqualmie Falls, the Lodge is owned by the local Snoqualmie Indian Tribe. There are two restaurants on site, and a luxurious spa, with Northwest- inspired treatments featuring herbs from the Lodge’s garden or honey from the on-site apiary.
Upon arrival at Salish Lodge, enjoy an evening at leisure and dinner on own.

This morning, following time for breakfast at the Lodge, a visit will be made to the falls and the group will enjoy a private, guided tour of the Snoqualmie Falls Hydroelectric Plant.

Following the visit of the hydroelectric plant, return to Seattle through the beautiful North Cascade Range. The Cascades are known for their tall volcanoes and deep evergreen forests.
Back in the Emerald City, enjoy lunch atop one of the tallest buildings in Seattle - Columbia Tower Club. The spectacular views of the Puget Sound, Olympic Peninsula and Cascade Mountain range will rival the exquisite cuisine you dine upon.
After lunch, return to the coach for a 2-hour drive through central Washington, across the beautiful and historic Columbia River, to this evening’s destination, Portland, Oregon.
If you’re lucky, you’ll catch a view of The Mountain en-route. Mount Tahoma, or Mt. Rainier, is simply known to the locals as “The Mountain,” and the locals count it as a lucky day if the weather permits a peek. If you overhear a local say “The Mountain is out,” you’ll know you are in for an amazing sight!
Arriving in Portland, check in at tonight’s accommodation, The Benson. This historic hotel unites the charm and civility of the old world with elegance of contemporary design. It has long catered to celebrities, business leaders, politicians, and every US president since William H. Taft. Amenities include two award-winning restaurants, and a historic lobby bar. Located in the heart of downtown, it’s just a short walk from the Pearl District, waterfront park, shops, bars and restaurants.
Tonight, you’ll have an evening at leisure to independently explore Portland’s vibrant downtown and enjoy dinner on your own.
DAY 3
Begin the morning with a light breakfast at your hotel.
Following breakfast, visit the Portland Rose Garden for a guided tour. This is the oldest official continuously operated public rose test garden in the United States. This beautiful space features more than 10,000 roses. Hundreds of thousands of visitors from around the world enjoy its sights and scents annually. The garden also offers spectacular views of downtown Portland and nearby Mount Hood, another of the Cascade Range’s impressive volcanoes.
Next up, lunch! And you’re in for a food extravaganza. Portland’s food scene hit the foodie world by storm, and it is now the destination for those in the know looking for the next tasty bite. And you’re in luck today because there are several bites lined up.
Enjoy a walking tour in downtown Portland, with stops at several eateries for your delectation. Walk approximately 1½ miles and enjoy four different stops featuring a variety of styles from up-scale restaurants, to casual eateries, to food carts. Although each stop will feature no more than a course, you’re sure to be more than full by the time you climb back onto the coach!
Next sit back, relax and enjoy the scenic 1.5-hour drive to the magnificent Oregon coast, and the charming town of Cannon Beach. You’ll be captivated by the beauty of this seaside town, with its remarkable displays of nature, and multitude of art galleries and unique shops. There will be time explore this marvelous destination independently.
You may want to survey the beautiful natural scenery from easily accessible panoramic viewpoints, set off on a scenic hike or sink your feet in the sandy expanse and breathe deeply. Beautiful beaches graced by dramatic rock formations and stunning coastline viewpoints are just the beginning of what makes Cannon Beach the ultimate Oregon Coast experience.
Should you choose culture over nature, you won’t be disappointed. With over a dozen galleries, you’ll be amazed at the incredible artwork you can find. Cannon Beach features a vast selection of art; everything from watercolor, bronze sculpture, modern and pop art, and blown glass treasures.
At the end of the day, drive the short distance north along the Oregon coast, to the port town of Astoria, at the mouth of the Columbia River, where you’ll re-board the ship with memories of a one-of-a-kind adventure, and perhaps a few shopping bags of treasures as well!

Experience the extraordinary natural beauty and wildlife of South America during this memorable journey to Iguazú Falls ~ one of the great natural wonders of the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. 80m high and 3km wide, the Iguazú Falls span the border between Argentina and Brazil and is made up of many cascades that generate vast sprays of water producing one of the most spectacular waterfalls known to mankind.
The Iguazú River Delta is located in the center of a sub-tropical forest spanning 457,000 acres and possesses unique characteristics that have made it an important economic and ecological reserve for its neighboring countries. On this overland adventure you will visit the northeastern section of Argentina - an area that is inhabited by over 400 different varieties of birds and marks one of the most beautiful landscapes of the world.
Note: There is extensive walking at Iguazú, the pathways can be uneven in places, and you are very likely to get wet from the spray of the falls.
Special Note: Any guests travelling with Portable Oxygen Concentrators (POC) or CPAP breathing machines should read further below for airline stipulations with regards to bringing this equipment on tour.
DAY 1
Disembark in Montevideo and transfer to the airport for a flight to Iguazú falls via Buenos Aires.
Upon your arrival at Iguazú, you will be transferred to the National Park.
The name Iguazú means Great Waters in Guarani. This natural wonder is taller than Niagara Falls, twice as wide and combines 275 falls in a massive, magnificent cascade stretching for nearly 1.7 miles. Situated on the border between Argentina and Brazil, its waters pass over lush, sub-tropical greenery.
Proceed to a prime location close to the falls where the group will enjoy an exclusive set up of cocktails.
Next, take a ride on the Iguazú Eco-Train to visit one of the wonders of the world, the impressive Garganta Del Diablo (Devil’s Throat). At sunset, this may be one of the most breathtaking sights you may see during your tour – this is where the Iguazú River crashes down almost 80 meters, usually forming rainbows!
Finally, head over to your hotel for dinner and overnight.
DAY 2
After breakfast at your hotel, return to Iguazú National Park where you will walk along the upper and/or lower catwalks, discovering the falls from several different vantage points.
Following a buffet lunch inside the park, enjoy a motorized boat cruise (zodiac adventure ride) which allows you to view the falls from water level and get close enough to feel the spray and energy created by this great mass of falling water. Please note that you may get extremely wet on the zodiacs depending on how close your boat gets to the falls. Along the way, your guide will explain all about the trees, birds, falls and more.
Note: Dry bags are provided for belongings. The zodiac loading area is not accessible to wheelchairs. There are approximately 100 steps down / up to reach the boats with no ramps. The zodiac tour is optional and any guests wishing to remain ashore can do so. There are shaded areas and benches to sit on throughout the park. Guests may wish to carry some dry clothing or bring a bathing suit to change into after this adventure.
After the tour, walk back to your hotel for dinner and overnight.
DAY 3
After breakfast at the hotel, transfer to the airport for a flight to Montevideo via Buenos Aires.
Once in Montevideo, transfer to Punta del Este where you will re-embark the ship. The drive is approximately 2 hours.

Upon landing, you will be greeted and assisted with VIP Fast track services and transferred to the Sofitel Hanoi or a similar hotel for the evening.
Hanoi is home to centuries-old traditional architecture that stands alongside French-colonial mansions as well as traditional temples. The life of the city can be seen in the narrow streets of the Old Quarter, where small boutiques, coffee shops and lively street vendors contribute to the vibrant atmosphere.
DAY 2 - April 24, 2025
You will get an early start to witness Hanoi slowly come to life as market vendors and city workers prepare for the day ahead.
A driver will take you through Hanoi on a cyclo, a three-wheeled bicycle taxi that accommodates two passengers. You will pass through boulevards that will become crowded later in the day but are just coming to life. While visiting the Botanical Gardens, you will likely see locals exercising, following tai chi masters and playing badminton—all typical early-morning activities.
Continuing on in the cyclo, you will travel along a leafy street lined with French colonial villas. You will stop to explore the city’s largest fresh food market, where many local shops and restaurants source their produce. The market is located near Long Bien Bridge, an iconic steel overpass that the French built in the early 20th century.
Return to your hotel for breakfast and to freshen up before continuing your tour.
Proceed to the mausoleum of former President Ho Chi Minh and learn about his role in Vietnam’s journey towards independence. His humble stilted house, which resembles an ethnic village home, is nearby.
Other landmarks include the One Pillar Pagoda, a unique 11th-century structure dedicated to King Ly Thai To’s son, and Hoa Lo Prison, which was known as the Hanoi Hilton during the Vietnam War.
After lunch at a local restaurant, you will walk alongside the train tracks and observe typical Hanoian families living in narrow houses beside the railway line. Small boutique shops and quaint cafés line the gravel road where residents gather to converse and hang out their laundry to dry. The passing of a train, just inches from their houses, seems to be just another part of the day in this humble area of town.
You will then travel to a trendy lounge for a cup of coffee while enjoying the scenery. You will see Long Bien Bridge, an iconic steel overpass that the French built across the Red River in the early 20th century.
Back at the hotel, you will have time to relax and freshen up before exploring Hanoi in the evening on the back of a Vespa. The driver will take you through busy streets and narrow passageways to show you a side of Hanoi that most visitors never see. You can expect it to be a genuine glimpse of daily life, especially while pausing at a vegetable market and to meander past narrow houses where many generations of the same family live together under one roof.
To add to your understanding of local life, you will also stop to sample local delicacies and a glass of bia hoi, a fresh brewed Vietnamese beer. Before returning to the hotel, you will take one last trip to a trendy area near West Lake to soak up the atmosphere.
DAY 3 - April 25, 2025
Following breakfast at the hotel and check out, you will head back to Noi Bai airport and take a seaplane to Halong Bay. The one-hour flight offers fabulous aerial views of the bay and the surrounding landscape. The water landing will be especially exhilarating.
The UNESCO World Heritage site Halong Bay is known for its natural beauty, where thousands of rugged limestone karsts can be seen jutting out like dragon’s teeth amid the emerald waters. You will see the bay up close on a beautifully crafted Vietnamese sailing vessel with a maximum capacity of 35 guests. As the boat sets sail, you will be served lunch.
Out on deck is the best place to watch the dramatic scenery unfold and soak up the majestic atmosphere of this surreal landscape as the vessel cruises past limestone islets and grottoes. After an inspiring journey, you will return to the pier and head to the Sunworld Passenger to re-embark the cruise ship.

Founded in the 1950s as a seaweed settlement, more than 400 seaweed workers and their families lived here. There
was a church, a school, a police department, and everything this small community needed.
The Lodge itself is quite simple. Maintaining a balance with nature, the houses of the first settlers were reconditioned to receive guests, preserving their austerity and simplicity, keeping alive the spirit of those who arrived there more than 60 years ago. Your Sea Cabin will have 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, a living room, mini bar and terrace facing the sea.

Finally, there is also a games room with a pool table, table tennis and board games.

Discover the enduring charm of Kyoto and Nara – both former capitals of Japan – through definitive landmarks that include legendary shrines and temples before boarding the bullet train to Tokyo, the present-day capital.
DAY 1 – May 11, 2025
After disembarking the ship in Osaka, you will travel by coach to Nara, Japan’s first capital. There, you will visit Kasuga Taisha Shrine in Nara Park. The deity enshrined there is said to have ridden to Nara on a deer. Ever since, these animals have been considered sacred and accordingly have been protected. You might feed the deer a special sugar-free cracker available at the shrine.
The deer respond to the sound of a horn and you will witness this phenomenon first-hand in a demonstration just for your group. When the horn blows, the deer will emerge from the surrounding forest and approach the horn blower. It will be quite the sight.
Later, proceed to Todaiji, a temple complex and UNESCO World Heritage site containing the largest bronze Buddha statue in Japan.
Then, after lunch at a restaurant, you will visit the Kehaya-za Sumo Pavilion, where you will observe a demonstration of sumo wrestling. Sumo originated in Japan, where it is the national sport. In fact, Japan is the only country where sumo is practiced professionally, so the demonstration will be a rare treat.
Late in the afternoon, you will check into The Thousand Kyoto, your hotel for the next two evenings. The group will dine at a local restaurant for dinner.
DAY 2 – May 12, 2025
Following breakfast at the hotel, you will travel into Kyoto to the Golden Pavilion, also known as Kinkaku-ji Temple. Originally built as a three-story home in 1397, the pavilion follows the Shinden style by being positioned at the edge of a tranquil pond.
While viewing the pavilion’s exterior, you will notice that the second and third stories are covered in shimmering gold leaf. The mirror reflection of the temple on the glassy pond is another highlight.
You will then travel into the Arashiyama district to the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest. Strolling the winding paths with sunlight filtering down through towering bamboo is considered by many to be a healing experience.
Lunch follows, after which you will visit the garden of Tenryu-ji Temple, an esteemed UNESCO World Heritage site. Built in 1339, Tenryuji is famous for its Japanese landscape garden. A triumph of design, the garden features a central pond that beautifully reflects the surrounding maple trees and the forested Arashiyama mountains.
You will enjoy a private Zen meditation session there held exclusively for your group.
Next proceed to the Buddhist temple Kiyomizu-dera to enjoy a breath-taking view of Kyoto. Kiyomizu-dera is one of the Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto and was proclaimed a UNESCO World Heritage site for its cultural and historical significance.
It is perched halfway up Mount Otowa in the Higashiyama mountain range. Many visitors come to pay their respects to Kannon, a deity of mercy and compassion.
Later, in the Gion geisha district, you will meander down the Ninen Zaka path, an ancient stone-paved pedestrian walkway lined with traditional buildings and shops.
The group will dine at a local restaurant for dinner.
DAY 3 – May 13, 2025
Following breakfast at the hotel and check out, you will visit Fushimi Inari Shrine, which is famous for its thousands of vibrant, orange torii gates along the wooded hiking trail that leads to the top of Mount Inari.
The names of the donors that funded the torii gates – which are dedicated to the deity of good harvest and success in business – are inscribed on them.
Although there are approximately 12,000 steps to climb to the summit, you can walk as far as you wish.
Afterwards, you will enjoy a behind-the-scenes tour of a sake brewery and be offered a tasting of this quintessential Japanese spirit.
You will then ride in Green Class on the Shinkansen, known familiarly as the Bullet Train for its high speed and sleek shape. It can travel more than 150 miles per hour, drastically reducing the time it will take to reach Tokyo.
A bento box is included for the journey. Snacks and soft drinks can be purchased on board.
Upon arriving there, you will travel to the port and re-embark the cruise ship.

Become thoroughly immersed in the cultures of Bali and East Java by visiting traditional villages, a Buddhist shrine, a tea plantation and the colonial city of Malang, all of which will lend great insight into daily life.
Note: Guests travelling with Portable Oxygen Concentrators (POC) or CPAP breathing machines should read further below for airline stipulations with regards to bringing this equipment on tour.
DAY 1 – April 10, 2025
After disembarking in Benoa, Bali, you will meet your guide and transfer to Subak Guliang, a traditional farming village in the island’s interior. The houses there are architecturally unique as they are based on the Asta Kosala Kosali tradition of house-building, a method somewhat similar to the ancient art of feng shui.
The houses are comprised of compounds in which areas for sleeping and cooking for instance are in separate structures rather than in separate rooms. All those structures are typically enclosed within a wall.
Your immersion into the culture will begin by helping prepare breakfast in the kitchen compound. The meal typically includes seasonal fruits, coffee, mineral water and Balinese cookies.
An enlightening walk through the village follows, during which you can meet and interact with the residents and see how families live and work together on a day-to-day basis. On one of the village farms, you will learn about the staple rice, from planting and harvesting through the best methods of cooking it. You will also gain an understanding of the simple but effective irrigation system Subak. Or you may just sit back and take it all in while enjoying fresh coconut water.
Lunch will be served right in the middle of the rice field with the soft background of traditional Rindik music played on bamboo instruments.
Afterwards, you will visit Penglipuran, a village that the indigenous Bali Aga people inhabit. The villagers still adhere to the strict traditions and time-honored ways that their ancestors followed centuries ago. The experience will provide a contrast to life in Subak Guliang.
Continuing on to the town of Ubud, you will check into your resort hotel for dinner and to spend the evening.
DAY 2 – April 11, 2025
After an early-morning breakfast, you will check out and transfer to Denpasar Airport for a domestic flight to Surabaya in East Java. Upon arrival at the Surabaya Airport, you will meet a local guide and drive to the Wonosari Tea Plantation, a vast and beautiful plantation on the slope of Mount Arjuna. There, you will witness tea leaf picking, tea making and other traditional daily activities.
You will then transfer to Sumberawan, a stupa – or a Buddhist shrine – that was discovered in a deteriorated state in 1904 and has since been partially renovated. It is the only true Buddhist stupa in East Java and is believed to date to the 13th-century Majapahit Sinhasari kingdom.
Surprisingly, the stupa doesn’t have a stairway to the small room at the top where the relics of the most important Buddhists would normally be kept. As no relics were found, it is believed that the stupa was built as a place of worship and meditation or possibly to honor a visit by the Majapahit king Hayam Wuruk in 1359. The stupa is mentioned in the epic Javanese poem Negarakertagama, which was written in the 14th century.
Continuing on to the city of Malang, you will begin sightseeing in a becak, a wheeled rickshaw that offers unobstructed views. Stops will be made along the way at the city’s largest Chinese temple and at the Pasar Bunga flower market. Riding down Malang’s central boulevard Alun Alun and through a seemingly endless maze of small alleys will also be memorable.
You will then check into your hotel in Malang for the evening.
DAY 3 – April 12, 2025
After breakfast, you will ride in a rickshaw (2 guests per rickshaw) to a traditional market and purchase fresh ingredients for your hands-on cooking class back at the hotel. You will learn to prepare a Javanese dish that will be chosen based on the seasonal ingredients available at the market.
After dining on your concoctions, you will transfer to the Surabaya port and re-embark the cruise ship.
