of the Pacific Rim. Unique cultures, ancient treasures and natural beauty abound as you venture into Asia, Australia and the Polynesian Islands.
Spend two full days in Hong Kong and take the time to immerse yourself in the ancient traditions and cosmopolitan energy of this magnificent city. Discover bustling Laem Chabang, Bangkok, known as “the Venice of Asia.” Explore Australia’s premier cities, Melbourne and Sydney.
