Tropical Island Hop – Koh Samui & Phuket

About this cruise

11 nights starts to feel like a proper adventure. You leave Laem Chabang (Bangkok) on March 22, 2026 and the route takes you through Koh Samui Island, Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) and Klang, with additional stops along the Southeast Asia at a pace where there's never any need to rush. Last stop: Singapore. A few ports come in quick succession, which is great for sightseeing but means you'll appreciate the sea days when they arrive. Crossing 4 borders through the Southeast Asia: Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia and Singapore. You'll notice the culture shift at every stop. Of the stops, Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) tends to be the one people talk about: Motorbike energy and French-colonial elegance. Around 12 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Norwegian Sun takes the food seriously, with 13 restaurants to choose from. 5 are included, and the rest are worth the splurge. There are enough performances, events, and social mixers on a cruise this length that you couldn't do them all if you tried. And that's a good problem. This one's for people who really want to switch off. No half measures. Block out the calendar. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. Sometimes the best trips are the ones you just go ahead and book.
