Cobalt Tides – Nagasaki, Jeju & Kobe
About this cruise
If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 7 nights from Yokohama on October 3, 2027, visiting Nagasaki, Jeju Island, Kobe (Osaka) and Shimizu. That gives you 4 days in port and 2 at sea, enough of each to find a rhythm. Karaoke bars, hot springs, and temples draped in moss. East Asia does culture and chaos in equal measure. Most ports give you about 9 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, You won't go hungry on Diamond Princess. 7 restaurants come with the fare, plus 5 more when you feel like treating yourself. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. You start in Yokohama and come back with stories from Japan and South Korea.
