20 days, one-way from Hong Kong to Sydney
About this cruise
The kind of trip where you lose track of what day it is, and nobody cares. 20 nights from Hong Kong on October 23, 2026, visiting Subic Bay Freeport, Boracay Island and Puerto Princesa, with additional stops along the Southeast Asia. You finish in Sydney. There's a stretch of back-to-back port days, so those days are busy, but the sea days around them give you time to recharge. It's a proper Southeast Asia tour: 3 countries, from Philippines to Australia. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Costa Serena: 3,014 guests, 13 decks. Entertainment, dining, and enough space that it never feels cramped. 20 nights is long enough to build a routine on board: favourite restaurant, favourite deck chair, favourite people. It starts to feel like a floating village. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
