Korean Peninsula Escape – Busan & Jeju

About this cruise

Short trips like this tend to hit differently because every day actually counts. You leave Shanghai on March 8, 2026 for 5 nights visiting Busan and Jeju Island. You start at sea, hit the ports, then finish at sea. The ports feel like the centrepiece, framed by lazy ocean days. Tokyo's neon at one port, Kyoto's temples at the next. You cover centuries in a few days. You get around 12 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, There are 13 restaurants on Spectrum Of The Seas, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 5 nights. A March departure catches that sweet window of warm-enough weather before the summer rush. 5 nights of not thinking about anything except where to eat next. That's the pitch.
