Saffron Thread – Saigon, Nha Trang & Halong Bay

About this cruise

Long enough to properly switch off but not so long you need to reorganise your entire life. This 10-night round-trip sailing from Singapore on December 9, 2026 visits Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon), Nha Trang, Halong Bay and Da Nang. Ports up front, sea days at the end. By the time you're back in Singapore, you'll feel properly rested rather than rushed. Thick jungles, golden pagodas, and beaches that are genuinely hard to leave. Don't rush through Nha Trang, which is known as Vietnam's beach city with a French accent. Roughly 11 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. You won't go hungry on Diamond Princess. 7 restaurants come with the fare, plus 5 more when you feel like treating yourself. 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 a December cruise to warmer water? Hard to argue with that when it's cold at home. All told, 4 ports across 10 nights covers a lot.
