Itinerary highlights

Hong Kong, China

A vibrant, buzzing metropolis filled with history, culture and futuristic feats, Hong Kong is unlike any other city in the world. Tradition and innovation exist side by side here. You’ll see it in the city’s dazzling skyline, stately dragon boats, abundance of museums and acclaimed food scene. Before your cruise from Hong Kong, pay a visit to the massive Tian Tan Buddha, which towers at over 112 feet tall. Savor delicious noodles and other tempting bites at the Temple Street Night Market or set sail on a harbor cruise for unbeatable views of Hong Kong’s iconic skyline. If you have an extra day, pop over to the island of Macau for a unique mix of Chinese and Portuguese heritage. However you choose to spend your days in this eclectic city, you’ll find the hardest part about visiting Hong Kong is trying to see all of it in the time you have.

Okinawa (Naha), Japan

Soak in the splendor of the former Ryukyu Kingdom at the vermillion-red Shujiro Castle. Then, walk around the private garden of a king at the tropical Shikinaen Gardens. Finish your time here by taking in Okinawa's pristine coastline at Okuma Beach, where you can swim, snorkel or kayak in the brilliant waters of the East Sea.

The iconic Kaibara Bay is the highlight of Ishigaki. Take a glass-bottom boat tour through emerald-green water, and glide over multicolored coral reefs full of tropical fish.
