    Nicknamed the Garden City, Singapore stretches across Malaysia's southernmost region. Experience the vibrant hustle and bustle of this city-state for yourself at the Marina Bay. No too far away is the historic centre, offering up a unique smorgasbord of neoclassical buildings and contemporary towers. Decked out in topiary, the pavements of Orchard Road are also home to countless shopping centres. The colourful markets in Chinatown and Little India are the perfect opportunity to quell hunger pangs in a hawker centre, one of the city's traditional snack bars. Between the two districts, get a slice of history with a trip to the Raffles' Landing Place. It was here that Englishman Sir Raffles, the founder of the city, is said to have arrived one fateful day in January 1819. ...

In a Peranakan house in Chinatown, you will discover the Baba & Nyonya Heritage Museum, which reproduces the interior of a traditional elegant home from the 19th century.

    • Nias, Indonesia
    The geographic isolation of the Nias islands have resulted in a unique megalithic culture. One of the most unique cultural traditions still in practice is Stone Jumping, a manhood ritual that sees young men leaping over two-meter stone towers in a rite of passage. The higher they jump, the better chance they have of acquiring a wife. The tradition was originally designed to train the young men for warfare and defense.

    • Bengkulu, Indonesia
    The British East India Company founded Bengkulu in 1685 as their new commercial center for trade, after the Dutch expelled them from Java. In 1714, the British built Fort Marlborough to protect their trading establishment. However, the trading center was never financially viable because of its remoteness and the difficulty in procuring pepper. Despite these difficulties, the British persisted, maintaining a presence there for over a century, eventually ceding it to the Dutch as part of the Anglo-Dutch Treaty of 1824. Like the rest of present-day Indonesia, Bengkulu remained a Dutch colony until World War II. Today guests will have the opportunity to undertake a guided tour by bus of the city of Bengkulu including a visit to Fort Marlborough. ...

    Cruising Krakatoa Volcano, Indonesia
    • Cruising Krakatoa Volcano, Indonesia
    Krakatoa, or Krakatau, is a name familiar to most, though few know where it is located. Lying in the Sunda Strait, between Java and Sumatra on the Pacific Ring of Fire, is the site of the largest volcanic eruption in modern history. The 1883 eruptions culminated with a colossal blast that literally blew Krakatau apart. The noise was heard over 4,600 km away. Eruptions since 1927 have built a new cone known as Anak Krakatau ("The child of Krakatau") that is still active, with its most recent eruptive episode having begun in 1994. Quiet periods of a few days alternate with spectacular Strombolian eruptions. Guest activities will be determined by the level of volcanic activity on the day and may involve ship-based viewing or a zodiac tour. ...

    • Probolinggo, Indonesia
    Nestled inside the massive Tengger caldera surrounded by a sea of sand, Mount Bromo is the epitome of desolate beauty.

Lava domes, pyroclastic cones, and a maar occupy the flanks of the massif. The surreal lunar landscape has spurned countless legends and myths. Mount Bromo has particular significance for the Hindu Tengger people who believe that this was the site where a brave prince sacrificed his life for his family.
