Day 1: Hong Kong
Welcome to Hong Kong! With its spectacular skyline of soaring towers and neon lights over Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong is a vibrant, immersive metropolis and cultural hub. A city where future and tradition collide – skyscrapers feature gaping holes designed to allow spirit dragons to soar from the hills to the waterfront unimpeded, junk boats rub shoulders with superyachts, and expansive wilderness is only a train ride away. Hong Kong’s dense jumble of activity is one of its main appeals, yet it’s surprisingly easy to find peace among the intense urban wonders.
Dramatic harbourfront light shows transform the skyline’s gleaming buildings into a colourful canvas. Your accommodation for the next six nights is Cunard’s magnificent Queen Victoria, a timeless, elegant vessel boasting a unique, old-world atmosphere and dazzling suite of modern facilities, including an expanded sun deck, winter garden, top-notch dining, cinema, ballroom and more. Check in to your sophisticated stateroom and let the magic of discovery wash over you.
Accommodation: Cunard’s Queen Victoria
Meals: Dinner
Days 2–3: At Sea
Days at sea are your chance to do as much or as little as you please. Relax and make the most of all-inclusive onboard dining with your pick of elegant high-end restaurants, gastro pubs, and indulgent buffets. Join a yoga, dance or fitness class, play a game on the spacious deck or simply laze by the pool. From a nightclub to live music and even magic shows, every evening will be a delight on board Cunard’s Queen Victoria.
Accommodation: Cunard’s Queen Victoria
Meals: Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner
Day 4: Phu My (Ho Chi Minh City), Vietnam
After two relaxing days at sea, arrive in the vibrant port of Phu My, just a 90-minute bus ride from Ho Chi Minh City, the shining jewel of Vietnam. Boasting colonial architecture, delicious street food and a flourishing coffee culture, Ho Chi Minh City is a fascinating mix of ageless beauty and ancient culture. On its streets, French colonial architecture mixes with modern Asian influences, providing a diverse backdrop for the many motorbikes, scooters, pagodas and street markets.
Get in touch with Ho Chi Minh’s French roots with a visit to Saigon Notre Dame Basilica, a grand example of the colonial building style. Feast on Vietnamese staples like banh mi sandwiches and pho before taking a stroll to Tortoise Pagoda, a tranquil place of worship for those who practise Buddhism and Taoism. Relics of the Vietnam War can be found at the Remnants Museum, while the medical museum displays a fascinating collection of potions and remedies.
Alternatively, head out to nearby Vung Tau, a small beach town boasting spectacular coastlines, a storied lighthouse and the Robert Taylor Museum of Worldwide Arms, boasting a staggering collection of military dress and arms from throughout history and across the world.
Accommodation: Cunard’s Queen Victoria

Visit the lush green spaces, including the 128-acre botanical gardens – a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Head to the iconic interconnected towers of Marina Bay Sands, sample Michelin-star dumplings in the city’s historic Chinatown or witness the city’s famed Supertrees ignite in hypnotic flashes of colour. Sample Singapore’s famed cuisine, wander through the ultra-clean streets, and let the highly efficient public transport system take you to the most iconic sites.

Day 7: Singapore
After breakfast, bid farewell to Cunard’s majestic Queen Victoria as your incredible cruise comes to an end in the fascinating city-state of Singapore. With a full day at leisure, now’s the perfect chance to experience some of the city’s best sights – laze beachside on the palm-lined tropical island of Sentosa, visit the historic Raffles Hotel’s Long Bar for a Singapore Sling at its place of invention, or simply shop the day away on Orchard Road.
Tonight, check in to your post-cruise accommodation at Pan Pacific Singapore, a five-star oasis in the city’s heart. Spend the late afternoon enjoying the hotel’s spectacular central pool or sipping handcrafted cocktails at PLUME, the hotel’s destination cocktail lounge themed around the birds of Singapore – a glamorous, reimagined tiki bar with an inspired twist.
