51 days, one-way from Tokyo to San Antonio

About this cruise

You come back from a trip like this actually rested, not just "I went on vacation" rested. 51 nights from Tokyo on October 18, 2026, visiting Keelung, Hong Kong and Subic Bay Freeport, with additional stops along the Australia & New Zealand. You wind up in San Antonio, so it's worth planning a night or two there. The sea days come first, which means no rushing to get off the ship on day one. You hit the ports relaxed and ready. 12 countries (Taiwan, Hong Kong, Philippines, Indonesia, Australia, New Caledonia, Fiji, Tonga, Cook Islands, French Polynesia, United Kingdom and Chile) across the Australia & New Zealand, each with its own character. Sydney stands out. It's Where the Opera House meets the harbour. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Costa Serena carries up to 3,014 guests over 13 decks. Multiple pools, a theatre, and more restaurants than you'll get through. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. And October is a good call. Still warm, less crowded, and usually cheaper too. All in all, it's a solid trip.
