Journey beyond the ordinary.
Where the ocean meets ancient wonders and modern marvels, The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection’s Asia sailings aboard Luminara invite you to discover far-flung shores through experiences as sublime as the destinations themselves. Every itinerary embraces the soul of Asia, from shimmering city skylines and sacred temples to hidden bays and archipelagos uncharted by larger ships — all at a graceful, unhurried pace that reflects the very essence of The Ritz-Carlton service.
Beyond the ship’s gracious interiors and panoramic ocean views, it’s the shore experiences that define each day ashore. Every itinerary offers a selection of meticulously curated excursions, from private cooking classes and local market explorations to serene temple visits and boutique cultural workshops that invite you to see each destination through the eyes of a local.
- In Singapore, stroll iconic gardens and sample hawker-centre delicacies guided by culinary insiders.
- Thailand’s islands beckon with snorkelling adventures, jungle treks, and beachfront tranquillity.
- Vietnamese heritage sites reveal centuries of tradition amidst limestone karsts and historic quaysides.
- Japan’s port cities offer UNESCO-listed treasures, seasonal festivals, and time-honoured crafts.
Your time ashore is not simply a visit, it’s a deeper encounter crafted with intention and insight. Each voyage is anchored by exceptional accommodation that mirrors the residential elegance of The Ritz-Carlton Hotels. Spacious suites — many with private terraces — serve as personal retreats where you’ll savour quiet mornings over espresso or evenings beneath a sky of stars. Thoughtful amenities, intuitive service, and bespoke touches throughout ensure that every moment aboard feels tailored to your desires.
