Asia Cruise Lines

Most major ocean lines sail Asia in the region’s season, alongside luxury ships and river specialists. Here’s who suits whom — and we’ll match the right one to you.

Princess & Holland America

Premium ships with strong Japan and Southeast Asia programs, good enrichment and classic 10- to 16-night itineraries.

Celebrity & Royal Caribbean

Modern ships from Singapore and Japan — Celebrity for a more upscale, adult feel, Royal Caribbean for big-ship families.

Norwegian & MSC

Flexible, resort-style ships with Asia seasons in Japan and Southeast Asia — relaxed and good value.

Luxury & expedition lines

Regent, Silversea, Seabourn, Oceania, Viking, Ponant and Explora offer refined, destination-focused Asia voyages, some reaching remote islands.

Japan specialists

Some lines base ships in Japan for round-trip Tokyo or Kobe sailings — the easiest way to focus on Japan and Korea.

Asia river cruise lines

For the Mekong, Yangtze and Irrawaddy, specialists like AmaWaterways, Uniworld, Avalon, Scenic and Viking run small river ships — compare them at asiarivercruises.com.
