3. Seabourn Hong Kong

An episode all about celebrating life! We begin on a South-East Asia cruise on one of the Yachts of Seabourn. Yes, it’s a cruise line! The ‘Yacht’ part refers to its ultra-luxury small ships – and the yachting atmosphere it creates for its discerning passengers. It’s one of the most stylish, 6-star experiences any of us have ever had. Not just the all-suite environment, the top-shelf cuisine, the – created signature moments that make this cruise unforgettable: Shopping with the Chef, Caviar in the Surf… The personal attention that had every crew member addressing us by name within 24 hours, attending to, and anticipating our every possible desire, before we even knew it! It was a celebration of the good life – the best life!

And we kept riding that wave! We disembarked our cruise for a 4-day post-cruise ‘extension’ in Hong Kong, centrally located, and the ‘cruise hub’ of Asia. More and more people are taking the opportunity to spend extended periods of time before and after their cruises in land destinations nearby. Hong Kong is one of the most exciting destinations in the world. A city that never sleeps, a study of contrasts between its British colonial past and its future as a pillar of China’s towering growth. The energy in Hong Kong sizzles, and perhaps never more than during Chinese New Year, one of the biggest celebrations on its calendar.

Our friends at Hong Kong Tourism Board make sure we are in the middle of the action, from the Night Parade to the spectacular fireworks over Victoria Harbour, from the Night Flower market to a day at the races. It’s all about good luck, and the Ship2Shore team couldn’t be luckier!
