Visiting:
Incheon (Seoul) to Tokyo
Lessons from history in the home of Madama Butterfly Sail from South Korea to Japan, taking in two of the world’s most poignant cities. After embarking in Incheon near Seoul, we sail to Korea’s Jeju island before crossing the Korea Strait to Nagasaki, a place that bears the terrible scars of war but is also famous as the setting of the romantic opera Madama Butterfly. After a day at sea, we reach the turquoise waters of the Miyako islands and then continue to the Okinawa archipelago. Turning north, a day on the ocean brings us to Aburatsu with its stunning coastal scenery, and then Hiroshima, to see its Peace Museum and discover life here today. Next, we stop at Kobe, which is building a formidable reputation with foodies, before we head east to dynamic Tokyo, where we disembark.
