Singapore has two main cruise terminals. Small and medium cruise ships generally dock at the Harbourfront Center on the western end of the city across from Sentosa Island. This terminal is in one big mall, and sits beside an even bigger mall, Vivocity. There is a MRT stop conveniently located here.
A new cruise terminal, Marina Bay Cruise Centre opened May 2012 accommodating bigger cruise ships. Marina South Pier MRT station provides convenient access to the city. The station is 600m away from the cruise terminal along a sheltered walkway.
Nha Trang, a coastal gem of Vietnam, offers a perfect blend of sandy beaches and vibrant city life. The city is renowned for its pristine coastline and the bustling Dam Market, where visitors can immerse themselves in local culture and cuisine. Adventure seekers can explore the Po Nagar Cham Towers, an architectural relic from the Cham civilization, providing a glimpse into the region's historical depth.
For a relaxed day, lounging at Nha Trang Beach with its calm waters and expansive views makes for a delightful escape. Alternatively, a visit to the Vinpearl Cable Car, which presents panoramic views across Nha Trang Bay, is a must-do. The cable car ride connects to an amusement park, adding a touch of excitement to the scenic journey.
Hue, once the capital of Vietnam, is renowned for its rich history and well-preserved heritage, epitomized by the Imperial City, a vast complex of palaces, temples, walls, and gates. The city's tranquil Perfume River adds a picturesque quality, with traditional dragon boats offering leisurely tours. Visitors are also drawn to the Thien Mu Pagoda, one of the oldest and most significant religious structures in the area.
Neighboring Da Nang is a stark contrast with its dynamic growth and modern attractions like the Dragon Bridge, which breathes fire and water each weekend night. Da Nang’s coastline, including the renowned My Khe Beach, is ideal for relaxation or watersports, while the Marble Mountains present a blend of natural beauty and spiritual significance.
The Chan May port is about an hour from the center of Da Nang, and some travelers pass through Hoi An from there. The Da Nang cruise port is minimally equipped, but there are some basic open-air market stalls with jewellery, clothes, and other Vietnamese souvenirs available for travellers to purchase.
Hong Kong’s Ocean Terminal port has become a tourist hotspot featuring world-class hotels, restaurants and shopping, and the Kik Tak Cruise Terminal is a newer port located in Victoria Harbor. When it’s time to sightsee, both ports have nearby train transportation and plenty of taxis available.
Head to the top of the Peak Tower for a panoramic view of all of Hong Kong, then shop the Temple Street Night Market. Take a day trip to Macau or for travelers who have been to Hong Kong previously might want to take a tour to Lantau Island to visit to the Po Lin Monastery to see the huge Tian Tan Buddha.
