All-Inclusive Luxury

Our goal is to develop your bridge skills, therefore our focus is on education. Because bridge is a game to be played, we will always provide ACBL sanctioned games, but usually more lessons than games. Generally, we provide one bridge session--either a lesson or a game--on days in port, and two sessions on sea days. We also choose a few port days on selected cruises to offer two sessions. We provide our full schedule several weeks in advance of the cruise.

With as many restaurants run by robots as ancient temples, there is no denying that Japan is a country of contradictions. So how should we begin to describe this indescribable place? Try starting with a day in Osaka. Contemplate the solemn history of Hiroshima before weaving your way into South Korea for Busan’s temples by the sea. Sail back to Japan for an overnight in Kanazawa, plus a long stay in Aomori. Last but definitely not least is Hakodate, home to the Onuma National Park and its abundant wildlife.
