Samurai Horizon – Hiroshima, Busan & Kanazawa

About this cruise

You come back from a trip like this actually rested, not just "I went on vacation" rested. 22 nights from Yokohama on March 28, 2026, visiting Hiroshima, Busan and Nagasaki, with additional stops along the Japan, Korea, China & Taiwan. Expect a run of consecutive ports, 15 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. People come back from this cruise talking about Hakodate: Hokkaido's star-shaped fortress and million-dollar night view. Roughly 9 hours ashore per stop. No need to rush. Diamond Princess has 12 restaurants on board, which means you could eat somewhere different nearly every night. The shows alone are worth the extra nights. You'll catch comedy, music, theatre, and themed evenings you'd miss on a shorter trip. Yokohama itself is worth spending some time in. Don't just treat it as a departure point. And March is a good time to go. Mild weather, things starting to bloom, and fewer people than summer. 15 ports, 2 countries, one suitcase. That's the appeal.
