Expedition Voyage
LIFE ABOARD SILVER CLOUD
Over 14 nights, our group of just 24 guests will discover the island wonders of Micronesia and Japan during an expedition cruise. Aboard the luxurious small ship, Silver Cloud, enjoy an all-inclusive experience, with butler service and four dining venues, travelling with no more than 254 passengers.
REMOTE ISLANDS OF THE PACIFIC
Explore islands seldom visited by other travellers. Across Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands of Saipan and Pagan, we discover relics of World War II battles. And we make the most of these unspoilt regions, snorkelling turquoise waters and hiking secluded shorelines and forests.
JAPAN'S DIVERSE ISLAND EXPERIENCES
Marvel at Miyajima’s water-dwelling, vermilion torii gate. See the birdlife inhabiting the tiny island of Tori-shima. And submerge yourself in the hot springs of Oshima Island. While the island of Shikoku offers a wealth of optional, cultural experiences.
THE GRANDEUR OF KOCHI CASTLE
Kochi Castle is one of Japan’s original 12 castles and has been designated as an Important Cultural Property. Enter via the Otemon Gate and see the former living quarters of the feudal lord, as well as the six floors of the castle tower.
FIX YOUR GAZE UPON FUJI
Look upon the colossal form of Mount Fuji from the waterfront of Miho no Matsubara. This beach within the city of Shimizu provides the perfect setting from which to capture Japan’s icon in all its glory.
GARGANTUAN GUARDIANS OF THE FOREST
On remote Yakushima Island, flourishing forests are populated by towering Yakusugi cedar trees. During a choice of walks, we take in various perspectives of the island and its ancient trees, many of which are said to be more than 1,000 years old. The World Heritage site is also replete with waterfalls and wildlife.
RESIDENCES OF THE HIGHEST STANDARD
DUSIT THANI GUAM RESORT
The first two nights of our journey are spent at Dusit Thani Guam Resort. Our Oceanfront rooms look out across the waters of Tumon Bay, while the verdant outdoor spaces and large pool set the scene for our island adventures to come.
SILVER CLOUD
The spacious Silver Cloud delivers us to remote harbours as we enjoy luxuries usually only expected in the world’s finest hotels. With four gourmet dining options, expansive decks and a swimming pool, we are never short of things to do during our time at sea. All guests benefit from the services of a butler, regardless of suite category.
FOUR SEASONS HOTEL OSAKA
Our journey concludes with a night at the Four Seasons Hotel Osaka. Opened in 2024, the stylish residence is located within the city’s Dojima neighbourhood, known as the site of the world’s first commodity futures exchange.
