Born and bred in Singapore, she feels like her heart belongs to the world though. There is a high chance you'll find her munching on Nutella cupcakes while predicting the next blindside on Survivor.
Craving for a brand new adventure, one that involves an epic voyage to faraway lands?
The Epic Adventure Cruise from Singapore to Alaska, offered by Princess Cruises, may just be the answer. The strikingly beautiful Alaskan wilderness is no longer a dreadful 30+ hours flight away. This is a better way of getting there; It takes more time – to be more accurate, 29 days – but the journey will be part of the destination. Picture this: a cosy cabin, international cuisines and spellbinding views while traversing the oceans to Anchorage, Alaska.
Along the journey, the elegant Golden Princess ship will stop by Ho Chi Minh City, Nha Trang, Hong Kong, Taipei, Busan and various ports in Japan before crossing the International Date Line in the Pacific Ocean. After the Asian leg, guests might even spot humpback whales and dolphins amidst the majestic landscape, if lady luck is on their side.
The spacious cruise houses 1,300 cabins – of which, 700 have balconies – and accommodates up to 2,600 guests. On board, guests can dine at fine restaurants such as Sabatini’s (a speciality Italian restaurant) and Crown Grill (a steakhouse). They can also opt for an extensive buffet spread at Horizon Court or dig into some tantalising pizzas at Prego Pizzeria. Signature dishes have also been carefully curated by Australian celebrity chef Curtis Stone.
On top of that, it is only apt for a cruise to Alaska to include fresh authentic Alaskan seafood (think: King Crab, Hump Island Oysters, King Salmon and Halibut!).
The fare for the 29-day cruise starts from S$4,520 per person. Be informed that an additional $413 will be imposed for taxes, fees and port expenses. Guests also have the option to extend their itinerary by a week for an additional S$1,160. The extended version includes an Alaska Grand Adventure tour across Hubbard Glacier, Glacier Bay National Park, Skagway and Juneau before reaching Vancouver, Canada.
Princess Cruises’ inaugural direct route from Singapore departs on 14 Apr 2018 and will arrive in Anchorage, Alaska on 12 May 2018. The 29-day cruise from Singapore to Anchorage is still AVAILABLE! However, the 7-day Alaskan segment is sold out. Be sure to make your bookings as soon as possible!
