Ocean Discovery – Kagoshima, Nagasaki & Busan

About this cruise

Block out 11 nights from March 14, 2028 and let this sailing from Tokyo do its thing. The route covers Kagoshima, Nagasaki and Busan, with additional stops along the Japan, Korea, China & Taiwan and there's plenty of room to breathe between each stop. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 7 stops total, with the busiest days packed close together. The sea days around them feel earned. Street food that'll ruin you for takeaway back home, ancient shrines, and cities that run like clockwork. Keep an eye out for Kochi: Japan's castle town on the Shikoku coast. Roughly 10 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. From casual buffets to proper sit-down restaurants, Diamond Princess has 12 dining spots on board, most of them included. With more nights comes more time for the ship's rhythm to kick in: morning coffee in the same spot, evening shows, late-night conversations on deck. And March is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. That's 11 nights well spent.
