Discover the wonders of Asia with Oceania Cruises' land tours

Asia is a region like no other, where ancient traditions sit side-by-side with dazzling innovation. For those embarking on an Oceania Cruises voyage, the Asian Pre & Post Cruise Land Tours offer a chance to dig deeper into the heart of these mesmerising destinations. From the futuristic cityscapes of Singapore to the historic treasures of Bangkok, these tours are carefully made to bring the region’s finest offerings to life. Here’s a closer look at four standout experiences...

✨A taste of Singapore’s fusion of old and new

Experience a city where advanced technology connects with deep cultural roots in Singapore. With Oceania’s land tours, you’ll take in the city’s expansive skyline from the Singapore Flyer, with champagne in hand, before heading to the iconic Gardens by the Bay. This landmark is a must-see during the day and even more magical when illuminated at night. You’ll also uncover Singapore’s multicultural heritage by wandering through Chinatown and cruising down the Singapore River.

✨Bangkok’s blend of temples, markets, and tuk-tuks

Thailand’s capital is teeming with life, culture, and history, and Oceania’s tour ensures you’ll uncover it all. Begin with a tuk-tuk ride through the old city streets, stopping to admire two of Bangkok’s grand Buddhist temples. For a quieter escape, take a longtail boat ride through the Thonburi canals, where traditional wooden homes and floating markets showcase the city’s connection to its waterways.

✨Finding Hong Kong’s hidden treasures

Few cities strike a balance like Hong Kong, offering urban energy alongside serene escapes. Start with a funicular ride to Victoria Peak to enjoy panoramic views of the iconic skyline and bustling harbour.

✨Tokyo’s journey through heritage and modern marvels

Oceania Cruises’ Japan land tour invites you to visit iconic locations like the Sensoji Temple, where age-old traditions come alive, and the labyrinth of unique shops along Nakamise-dori.

🌍 Five ways G Adventures trips will change your world 🌍

1️⃣ Guides so good they call them CEOs
The biggest reason travellers book G Adventures trips with us over and over and over again? Their legendary Chief Experience Officers, aka CEOs. Their superhuman-level of local knowledge means you get insider access to the best spots in town. Their never-ending enthusiasm will have your group gelling like you’ve all been friends since primary school.

2️⃣Small groups. Lots of passports
G Adventures keep groups small to keep you feeling connected: to the places you’re exploring and the group mates you’re doing it alongside. And because these groups are made up of travellers from countries all across the planet, you’ll be experiencing the world just by who you’re travelling it with.

3️⃣As ungrouped as it gets
Want group travel that doesn’t feel like group travel? A trip with G Adventures combines the security and camaraderie of travelling with others, with the freedom to do your own thing. Their well-planned itineraries include the perfect amount of free time for optional activities or doing whatever else your adventurous heart desires.

4️⃣Immersive experiences as standard
Seeing the world is fun, but experiencing it? That’s where the magic happens. With G Adventures, you’re not just sitting down for a local meal or watching a traditional dance from the side lines. Their trips get you into the heart of the action; like breaking bread with local families right in their home or busting moves as if you’re part of the dance troupe yourself.

5️⃣Giving back has never been so fun
What’s better than going on the adventure of a lifetime? Changing the world while you’re at it. That’s called ‘Community Tourism’ and it’s an idea that G Adventures pioneered over 30 years ago. It means you can feel good knowing your holiday is constantly giving back to the people you meet, the places you go, and now, with their new Trees For Days programme, the planet itself.
