Take in as much as you can of this thrilling city with its endless shopping and towering skyscrapers. Your agenda for Hong Kong should include Victoria Peak, an Aberdeen Fishing Village, the Man Mo Temple and Sheung Wan Dried Food and Herbal Market. Be certain to have extra room in your suitcase for the bargains you are bound to discover.
March 16, 2024. DAY AT SEA
March 17, 2024. HANOI (HALONG BAY ), VIETNAM Arrive 7AM. Nothing can prepare you for the beauty of Ha Long Bay and its 2,000 limestone karsts, nor the experience of trekking around mountainous Sapa. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1994, this port city with its sweeping lush landscapes and calm waters lies just 100 miles from the bustling streets of Hanoi. Catch a water taxi out to one of the many floating restaurants on the bay.
March 18, 2024. HANOI (HALONG BAY), VIETNAM Depart 2PM. There’s so much to explore on a Vietnam cruise. Head to Hanoi, the country’s captivating capital, where you’ll find a blend of Parisian grace and Asian pace. Rise early to watch t’ai chi practiced at dawn near Hoan Kiem Lake, then take in the rich heritage and history with a visit to the Ho Chi Minh Mausoleum and the bustling back streets of the Old Quarter.
March 19, 2024. HUE/DANANG, VIETNAM. DOCKED 8AM to 8PM. The Nguyen Dynasty founded this former capital in the 17th century on the banks of the Perfume River. Today it sits as a massive open-air museum of temples, pagodas, palaces and tombs. Explore the Imperial Citadel, then take a river cruise for a view of the Tombs of the Emperors and Thien Mu Pagoda. Pago Pago is the main settlement on Tutuila, surrounded by peaks rising out of deep water harbor rimmed with palm-shaded beaches.
March 20, 2024. DAY AT SEA. We have reached the half-way point in our adventure. Time to recharge. Lounge by the pool, be spoiled at the spa, taste the delicacies, or explore the venues on-board, until we arrive at the next amazing destination.
March 21, 2024. HO CHI MINH, VIETNAM. Docked 7AM to 7PM. Located on the edge of the Mekong Delta, this dynamic metropolis also features the ageless beauty of an ancient culture.

March 22, 2024. DAY AT SEA
March 23, 2024. BANGKOK/LAEMCHABANG, THAILAND. Arrive 8AM. Bangkok is a city of contradictions: high-rise buildings and popular clubs abound, but so do golden temples and lively street fairs.

March 24, 2024. BANGKOK/LAEMCHABANG, THAILAND. Depart 5PM. Check out Klong Toey, in central Bangkok. It features a highly discounted market, offering fresh eel, dried fish, and the lively smells, sights, and sounds of this waterfront-pier area.
March 25, 2024. KO SAMUI, THAILAND. Tendered 7AM to 5PM. This small tropical paradise, lined with coconut palms and white sand beaches and encircled by turquoise water is a perfect place to escape and explore. Gaze up at the Big Buddha, cool off in the natural pool at the base of Na Muang Waterfall and view the astonishing natural rock formations of Hin Ta and Hin Yai.
March 26, 2024. DAY AT SEA
March 27, 2024. SINGAPORE. Arrive 7AM. At first glance, this diamond-shaped island just off the coast of Malaysia gleams with modernism and commercialism, making it seem more Western than Eastern. But as you continue to discover the city-state, you’ll uncover the eclectic mix of cultures, religions, ancient treasures and British colonial impressions that give rise to a unique Singaporean identity.
Remember, we only have 2 concierge staterooms left at our special price. Please call us today to reserve your spot! 804-557-3006

Ports of Call
Alesund
This small but lively city has a unique modern feel. A rebuilding effort following a major fire in 1904 gave the city its distinctive Art Nouveau — or “Jugendstil” — architectural style, defined its ornate details, asymmetrical facades and curving forms meant to resemble plants, animals and flowers. From the city park, walk up the 418 steps to the city’s peak, Aksla — you’ll be rewarded with a gorgeous panoramic view on the city, the islands and the rugged Sunnmorsalpane mountain range. Alesund is the home base for Norway’s largest cod fishing fleet, so you won’t have to go far to try some of the delicious and fresh seafood dishes during your Norway cruise.
Bergen
Set against the backdrop of seven mountains, Bergen’s natural beauty and historical charm will stop you in your tracks. Stroll through the Bryggen neighborhood, with its medieval cobblestone alleyways and red, yellow and white painted houses. Take the cable car or a one-hour hike to the top of Mt. Floyen, and soak in dramatic views of the city and the surrounding fjords with Norway cruises. Encounter trolls — don’t worry, they’re only statues — in the Troll Forest. Later, learn why Bergen is a UNESCO City of Gastronomy with a meal at one of the city’s forward-thinking restaurants, where chefs prepare cold-water seafood and local produce with modernist techniques.
Flam
Arriving in Flam feels like stepping into a fairy tale. Home to only 350 inhabitants, the village is situated at the inner end of the Aurlandsfjorden, the world’s deepest fjord reaching a staggering 4,292 feet. From the harbor, take a brief stroll to the Flam Railway and take the 12-mile ride through the Myrdal Mountains and along the fjord. Cruise to Norway and head to Otternes Farm Village, made up of 27 different buildings that date back to the 17th century. Then, let the waterfall at Stalheimsfossen take your breath away, or drive to Stegastein viewpoint to take in the beauty of the fjord.
Geiranger
Welcome to the Jewel in the Crown of Norway’s fjords. Geiranger Fjord was made a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2005, but the area has been luring tourists since the turn of the 19th century. Take the Waterfall Walk to the heart of the cascades. Climb the Skywalk for Europe’s highest fjord view with a clear 1640 foot drop below you. Explore Geiranger by bike or on foot, or hop in a raft or kayak for a view from the water. Once you’ve taken in your fill of mountain air, stroll the quaint village center. Indulge your sweet tooth at the local artisan chocolate shop, or sit back at a cafe with a coffee and a krumkake — a rolled cake with whipped cream in the center — and enjoy the view.
Honningsvag
Situated above the Arctic Circle, Honningsvag is surrounded by fjords and waterfalls, offering views across the sea to the Svalbard Islands and the North Pole. First settled more than 10 thousand years ago, today you’ll find a modern central area around the harbor. Shops sell local crafts, including traditional Sami jewelry, as well as sleek Scandinavian home décor. Jump onboard a Norwegian fjords cruise and watch the indigenous Sami people herd reindeer through the area, and explore the history of the area at the Nordkappmuseet. Then, head to one of the restaurants in the harbor area for king crab risotto.
Molde
Known as the Town of Roses, Molde is situated in the midst of some of Norway’s most beautiful fjords. Enthusiastic for the outdoors? Hit Molde’s multitude of hiking and biking trails that offer views of the 222 mountain peaks visible from here. Take one of the world’s most iconic drives: Molde’s Atlantic Road, voted the Norwegian Construction of the Century, lets you actually drive over the ocean through islands, bays and moorlands.
Olden
Fresh air and icy beauty are the hallmarks of Olden, known as the Gateway to the Glaciers. Come here to explore the Jostedal Glacier – not only can you take in views of this natural wonder, you can also head to Jostedalsbreen National Park and hike the blue ice yourself. Thanks to Olden’s location at the northern end of Oldedalen Valley, you’ll find an unexpectedly dramatic landscape dotted with valleys, waterfalls and mountains. Explore the town by foot, boat or bike, and head into a gallery to discover why Olden is an emerging center for contemporary design. Check out the Old Olden Church for a unique look into local religious traditions.
Tromso
Tromso, Norway’s gateway to the Arctic, is surrounded by deep blue fjords and snow-capped mountain peaks. Explore this lively city, linked to the mainland by a gracefully arched bridge. Visit the fascinating Polar Museum or the arctic aquarium Polaria. Be blown away by panoramic views on a cable car ride up to Storstein Mountain, or hike up one of the trails that run through the Lyngen Alps. Cruise to Tromso, Norway and stop into a cafe and refuel with carrot and cardamom marmalade on toast.
From the stunning scenery to the fun experiences, this cruise vacation is sure to delight! We’ll be happy to create for you a perfect European vacation if you wish to extend your holiday.

Itinerary
August 20, 2025: Reykjavik is the world’s northernmost capital city yet captures the distinctive feel of a fishing village. The Kentucky-sized island is Europe’s westernmost nation and one of the wildest places on earth.
August 21, 2025: Heimaey is the only populated island in the Westman Islands. The scenery is stunning with its volcanic landscapes, moss-covered clifftops and picturesque homes with brightly colored rooftops. A number of breathtaking natural sights are a result of the volcanic eruption that took place here in 1973, which saw the evacuation of all 5,000 residents to the mainland. Each summer, millions of puffins pay a visit and countless other species migrate here to feed and breed. Several efforts are underway to protect the wealth of wildlife, from puffins to the gentle giants of the sea.
August 22, 2025: Djúpivogur lies on Iceland’s east coast and has been a trading center since the 16th century. The town is presided over by the towering Búlandstindur; a mountain famed in local folklore for its ability to grant wishes during the summer solstice.
August 23, 2025: Seydisfjördur enjoys a mountainous setting at the end of a fjord. It traces its origins to the early days of Viking settlements. Though the town is tiny, it boasts an impressive history. It hosted the world’s first modern whaling station and pioneered international communications when it welcomed the first telegraph cable, linking Iceland to Europe. Colorful wooden homes line the streets, overseen by starkly picturesque slopes and the soaring summits of Mounts Bjólfur and Strandartindur.
August 24, 2025: Akureyri, nicknamed the “Capital of the North,” is set at the end of the Eyjafjördur and enjoys a mild climate, unusual for a northern city just 62 miles from the Arctic Circle. Folk culture is robust in Akureyri; the Vefarinn dance was invented here to celebrate the harvest. Don’t forget to see the famous Icelandic horses on nearby farms.
August 25, 2025: Ísafjördur, nestled at the foot of dramatic mountain slopes, is the capital and largest settlement on the Westfjords, a large peninsula in northwestern Iceland that is connected to the mainland by a wide isthmus. This rugged, unspoiled region is home to landscapes of breathtaking natural beauty, from jagged mountain peaks, to red- and gold-sand beaches, cascading waterfalls and Drangajökull, Iceland’s only expanding glacier. The Westfjords teem with birdlife; Látrabjarg, located on the peninsula’s western shores, is the site of one of Europe’s largest bird cliffs.
August 26, 2025: A relaxing day at sea as you sail to Greenland.
August 27, 2025: Nanortalik is nestled on an island near the mouth of a fjord on the southwestern shores of Greenland. It was established in 1770, though a small group of Vikings led by Erik the Red first arrived in the 10th century and called it “Grœnland,” or Greenland, in hopes of attracting more settlers. Today, the Inuit people dominate this austere and picturesque landscape and hold fast to their long Inuit traditions by fishing for crab, hunting hooded seals and welcoming visitors with a festive kaffe-mik, a coffee party with plenty of their famed Greenlandic cake.
August 28, 2025: Qaqortoq is a repository of Viking, Inuit and Danish history. Greenland’s largest and best-preserved Viking settlement lies 12 miles out of town at Hvalsey, established by Erik the Red’s uncle in the 10th century. The Inuit soon followed, and left behind many artifacts from their early days. The Danish colonial era, too, is finely reflected in historic buildings, including an 1804 blacksmith’s shop and the harborside 1797 black tar log building. Qaqortoq lends itself to leisurely strolls and its spectacular setting attracts outdoor enthusiasts.
August 29, 2025: Sailing the Labrador Sea.
August 30, 2025: L’Anse aux Meadows, Labrador, Canada is the site of the first Norse settlement in the Americas. Leif Eriksson’s voyage from Greenland in the late 10th century predated Columbus by 500 years. Proclaimed a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1978, the ancient village Eriksson founded provides fascinating insight into the day-to-day lives of Vikings. Each of its dwellings was constructed of a wood frame covered in sod. The site was uncovered in 1960, when a village local pointed out a series of mounds in the earth that he and his neighbors had always believed to be an ancient Native American camp.
August 31, 2025: Sailing the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
September 1, 2025: Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada exudes a fine European air and lies along the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. Visitors by sea are greeted by the 1758 Sambro Island Lighthouse, the oldest surviving beacon in North America. In the harborside Historic Properties district, grand and charming stone buildings built in the 18th and 19th centuries grace the cobblestone streets. The city grew up around Citadel Hill, where Fort George protected the harbor. The fortress, along with the adjacent stately Halifax Town Clock, has been gloriously restored and preserved.
September 2, 2025: Enjoy a relaxing day at sea.
September 3, 2025: New York City. After breakfast disembark for your return journey home.

Holiday Cruises:
Make this the year that your family enjoys a care-free holiday season, free from all the cooking, cleaning, and entertaining. With our relaxed and casual style, you don’t even have to dress up, and everywhere on the ship will be decorated so the magic of the season truly shines.
On-Board Family We’ll spoil you with our crew who will make this a holiday you’ll remember and strive to make it a part of your yearly tradition. They’ll share their traditions with your family as well.
Something in Your Stocking On Christmas sailings, anticipate special welcome treats in your suite or stateroom, like Christmas cookies and candy canes, mandarin oranges, roasted peanuts and chocolate candies.
Windstar Traditions We have a few holiday traditions of our own we like to share, like the Captain reading The Night Before Christmas, the crew leading a sing-along of Christmas carols, and a guest-led Hanukkah menorah lighting. On New Year’s Eve, get your camera ready for a seafaring tradition as our oldest crew member rings out the previous year, and the youngest rings in the new one.
Festive Feasts We’ll serve all your holiday favorites with classic trimmings, along with decadent options like butter-poached lobster tail. We make sure that vegetarians don’t miss out on the fun either, with delicious creations like Roasted Pumpkin Squash Soup and Beetroot, Broccoli & Goat Cheese Tart.
Christmas High Tea A true holiday highlight is Windstar’s Christmas High Tea, featuring Christmas Cake and Stollen. Served in Compass Rose, the Lounge, or even on open deck if weather allows, this elegant affair is often accompanied by a local band.
Crew Talent Show Cheer on your favorite crew members as they display a wide range of talents beyond their uncanny ability to read your mind and deliver top-notch service. From the cultural to the kitschy, they’ll keep you entertained in an evening full of warmth and good humor.
Warm Your Feet by the Beach While everyone else might be shivering in the snow, you’ll spend your days frolicking on the beach, sunning yourself on the teak decks, or hiking in the cloud forests. With voyages to the Caribbean, Costa Rica & the Panama Canal, Tahiti, and more, you won’t have to worry about shoveling your driveway or packing your puffer jacket.
