Far East Cruise with Costa

Sailing from Singapore on 28th November, this cruise a wide range of experiences from Singapore itself, which is one of the best shopping venues on offer, as well as having a fantastic sightseeing environment full of lovely buildings. Then there’s Indonesia, where Costa Allegra visits Ujung Pandang and Komodo Island, which is inhabited by the descendants of former convicts who were exiled to the islands as well as being home to the Komodo National Park where you can visit the Komodo dragon. It’s also a popular destination for diving. Then a stop in Bali, moving on to Jakarta, then Malacca before travelling to Thailand’s largest island, Phuket. Finally there’s a visit to Kuala Lumpur where you can see the massive Petronas Towers, enjoy some very cost effective souvenir shopping, tour the many open markets or enjoy some of fantastic fusion food that KL has to offer. Costa Allegra is a small vessel, carrying only 800 passengers, and had a substantial refurbishment when it relocated to the Far East to meet the needs of cruise passengers who are expected to be both American/European and Chinese. This means that signs on the ship are in both English and Chinese! Prices for this exciting cruise begin at £859 per person, cruise-only for fourteen nights.
