These Asia cruises range from 10 to 15 nights in length departing from either Tokyo, Hong Kong, or Singapore.

“As the first luxury hotel brand to venture into the cruise space, we are thrilled to bring our yacht cruise voyages into Asia’s most sought-after destinations,” added Jenni Benzaquen, SVP of The Ritz-Carlton, St. Regis, and Bulgari Hotels and Resorts.
Yacht cruise highlights include a 14-night Singapore to Hong Kong voyage calling at Ko Samui, overnight in Bangkok, a visit to Ho Chi Minh City and Ha Long Bay.
