Southeast Asia Cruise Travel Tips
- As you’ll travel through a variety of climates on a Southeast Asia cruise, make sure you pack for all weather (including bringing waterproofs for monsoon seasons).
- Some Southeast Asia ports are located a good 2 – 3 hours from the city center and the area’s main attraction, so always factor this into your time on land. It’s sometimes best to book a guided tour into the city, that way you’re learning new things as you travel!
- Research what currency you’ll need for each country and make sure you bring plenty of cash, not just your bank card.
- On Southeast Asia cruise tours, you’ll likely be visiting multiple different countries so be prepared to fill out paperwork. The cruise lines will likely deliver required paperwork to your stateroom the day before entering a new country, but always check what’s required in advance.
