Top 5 Private Cruises in

AsiaPrivate cruises typically offer a welcome

break from big crowds and regimented

tours; an experience that allows travelers

to decompress in all serenity and freedom

while enjoying a unique aquatic

perspective of the destination. An ever-

growing number of self-proclaimed private

luxury cruises have diminished the

exclusivity that was once associated with

this type of travel, unless you know where

to look of course. Luckily, several truly

spectacular private cruising options that

live up to expectations are still there to be

enjoyed in all their secluded, opulent

glory.

Today we bring you a curated list of the

Top 5 Private Cruises in Asia. Drifting

along impressive karst formations, white

beaches and azure waters; go island

hopping for days at a time, or simply sail

wherever the opportunities of the day take

you.

Valentine - Ha Long Bay, Vietnam

Undoubtedly one of the most iconic places

in Asia, Ha Long Bay is a UNESCO World

Heritage Site defined by around 2000

limestone islets boasting a unique

ecosystem and biodiversity. With only two

spacious cabins, guests aboard the

Premium Valentine, a wooden junk ship

(traditional Sino-Vietnamese vessel) can

enjoy one of the most exclusive ways of

freely exploring Halong Bay’s imposing

karst formations and isolated beaches.

Enjoy a private tai-chi session, discover

the beaches and caves of Ha Long and

perhaps enjoy a swim or a kayak journey,

followed by a moonlit dinner, all in a day's

'work'.

Dunia Baru - Indonesian Archipelago

A traditional Indonesian Phinisi boat on the

outside, an ultramodern yacht on the

inside; the Dunia Baru is a masterpiece of

craftsmanship and luxury. Sailing the

Eastern archipelago of Indonesia, the

Dunia Baru transports its guests to the

beautifully remote corners of the

Indonesian Islands: from the Asmat tribes

of Papua, to Raja Ampat, the diving

paradise, and the dragons of Komodo.

Hosted by 16 professional crew members

and accommodated in 4 exquisitely well-

appointed suites, guests on board the

Dunia Baru are in for an unforgettable

experience aboard a majestic vessel

sailing around the islands of Eastern

Indonesia.

Raja Laut - Mergui Archipelago,

BurmaBuilt entirely from ironwood, this 30 meter

classic gaff-topsail Schooner hides a

modern and luxurious interior that takes its

guests on a revitalizing trip through the

Mergui Archipelago in Myanmar.

Historically untouched, most of the 800

islands that form this archipelago still

remain magically pristine. Sail through the

Andaman Sea along hundreds of deserted

islands, interact with the local Moken

people and leap overboard to swim or

snorkel along the unspoiled reefs; end the

day with a delicious sundowner and dinner

on deck.

The Bounty - Hong Kong

The only European Tall Ship of Hong Kong

is a full scale replica of a 42-meter long

1784 British vessel. Although The Bounty

has also served as a venue for weddings

and events, this spectacular ship can be

privately chartered for families or small

groups. Cruise along the Hong Kong

Harbor during the evening, or sail out into

the ocean on an overnight cruise on one of

Asia's most spectacular ships, with a

dedicated crew at your service.

Surin islands on the Burmese border to the

Bunting Archipelago next to the Malay

Peninsula, or the Similan Islands off

Phuket, the boat cruises as per your

request along the coast of Thailand in the

Andaman Sea, stopping at your

convenience at any of the dozens of
